    Ah yes, murderous imperialism that lifted over a 100 million people out of poverty and illiteracy. It’s very telling to see what the standard of living is like in most post Soviet republics today.

        I grew in USSR, so I think I have a pretty good idea of life under communism was actually like. The reality of the situation is that quality of life improved dramatically for the vast majority of people after USSR was formed. Now, quality of life continues to decline across the board.

            Places like Poland, Romania, and Bulgaria have gotten objectively worse for working class people. Eastern europeans became cheap labor and sweatshops for rich western countries. Here’s what even people from east Germany have to say.

            Meanwhile, places like Kazakhstan, Armenia, and Uzbekistan turned to living hell. It’s quite telling how anticommunists always conveniently focus on white western parts of USSR.

            You’re just parroting nonsense here.
