    being swedish i would give the benefit of the doubt towards the denial from too similar name being legit. this sort of shit literally happens all the time, swedish bureaucracy at its finest.

    writing an article about it after the fact and trying to dramatize it as some kind of attack is more likely the excuse to market their existence and try trigger some outrage for viral effect.

          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.
