    Just forgot to add, I love how you talk about “brutal IMF loans”. Brutal was when Soviet soldiers invaded my country, raping, pillaging and occupying it for almost 50 years. I assure you, taking a loan is slightly less brutal. Just a bit.

    My country isn’t anyone’s landlord, barely regained independence not that long ago.

      Not sure where you live, nor do I need to. It’s a known fact that countries like the US, France, Germany, Britain, and so forth essentially act as parasites on the world and ruin those who go against them. The Soviets have historically been far better for the world than any of the Western powers.

      The loans are only one small part. When you go against the Western powers, you end up like Iraq, Vietnam, Korea, Cuba, Cambodia, and Afghanistan. Butchered and pillaged by the US.

        The soviets were on par with the nazis, depending on your ethnicity even worse (as they raped and killed indiscriminately, not targeting specific groups). They invaded countries, massacred all politicians, journalists, professors, artists, etc and installed their puppets. A bigger, redder parasite.

        But yeah, the IMF loans are brutal, man.

          Equating the Soviets to the Nazis originates with Double Genocide Theory, which is a form of Holocaust Trivialization and Nazi Apologia. They did not SA and kill indiscriminately, nor did they create mass industrialized murder. Rather, they were liberators and stopped the Holocaust.

          Read Blackshirts and Reds, you are so incredibly far off of historical accuracy that you’re running defense for the Nazis.
