The guy looks maybe 50. Pray tell me, what “socialism” did he “survive”?
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, my favourite are the 90s kids from eastern Europe who say they experienced the horrors of true socialism.
Anecdotally, I also know a few Gen Xers who grew up in the DDR and they’re all very proud of how exploited they are in the free west.
This guy probably gets what he thinks is a decent salary so he’ll say whatever to keep the job. Doesn’t hurt that he got brainwashed by the imperial military.

From personal, anectodal experience, nobody hates and loathes USSR as much as the perestroika era people - those born and raised in the waning day of the socialist project.
obviously I don’t wanna defend this guy at all, but wasn’t Poland led by communists from the end of WW2 up to the 90s?
By the 80’s it was already in full reactionary swing, what with Solidarnoc and all. So did USSR, mind you, especially after 1985 and Perestroika. But even before that, the socialist project was losing steam.
So in short, there was communist themed windows dressing, but the system was moving away from building socialism.
This further reaffirms my long standing belief that people who lived through socialism in Eastern Europe and disliked are almost entirely remembering the revisionists dismantling of socialism and not real socialism of the Stalin era, which I saw you have pointed out too
Lmao that must be easy boss who was giving to its “victims”: jobs, education, housing, healthcare and so on and on. Gamers would explode if something like that happened in game.
Fucks news moment.
Polish immigrants in 2023 is warning about the danger of “Socialism” and its encrouchment in the USA? Socialism had ended in Poland decades before 2023 and Socialism is not encrouching in the USA. What would the Poland people in Poland say about it? Are they refering to populism due to their lack of education? Are they from the younger generation who had never lived under Socialist governance? In the first place, what is their definition of Socialism? If their definition of Socialism means “failed Capitalist system” or the Liberal redefinition of “government doing something” and not the original definition of “government by the working class”, then his claim is not creditable.
Socialism is literally their boogeyman
