    Go check those living quarters they had lol, and food queues, and how well the health care worked if you had nothing to bribe with. Those sweet shortages of everything.

    You should talk to someone who actually lived in the “union” and stop slurping kremlin propaganda. But will you? I wouldn’t bet on it.

      Even if i dont check and just believe what you wrote, it still beats the shit out of the situation a ton of us are in right now (also that was literally 34+ yrs ago. Life was different then AND the country was recovering from tons of shit). Not to speak of the countries that make our ill gotten comfort possible too. And just to clarify, present day russia is not communist or socialist. they’re as capitalist as the western states are. They are no better and no worse in terms of inequality.

      The important part, will you have a respectful discussion or do I have to block you?
