The short answer is that those who lived through Commie Land and enjoyed it are those who had an high-ranking job in the regime. Those who openly hated it...they got sent to the gulag for being too stupid to keep their mouth shut.

The longer answer is that the Russians were promised an utopia and it never really happen under Stalin. Mainly because he's an paranoid fuck who didn't trust anyone who's smarter and more charismatic than him. Which, of course, led him either sending the rejects to Siberian labor camps or silently killing them off. In addition to getting rid of the top brass (and mid-ranking officers) of Mother Russia's once-glorious military, he went after basically everyone who had what we in the States consider an well-paying job nowadays...And after those people were dealt with, he said his sights on any peasant farmer who had a modest amount of money. But purging the military came back to haunt once WW2 hit Russia: There was an shortage of experienced and competent officers and he had to pull one of his exiled generals out of the gulags to help salvage the war. There was also an company of "barrier troops" for each division on the field to ensure that nobody retreated from the frontlines, but contrary to "Enemy at the Gates" they were mainly used as anti-espionage and reserve troops than your typical 40K Commissar.

And for what it's worth, civilian life in Communist Europe is: Having the local version of the CIA kill/imprison whomever they want with no recourse, waiting for hours in the cold to get your rations, sitting in the cold becausehe's of the power outages and rationed hot water (it varies by country), you can't really choose what job you had.

And here's the most important one for the Chinks

These people have obviously also never heard of the term 'Communist/soviet nostalgia' which refers to a very rose tinted view of a brutal totalitarian regime. Its literally 'Yeah but the trains ran on time' basically.

It happens in every liberal country that recently recovered from an authoritarian regime, Eastern Europe and Latin America are notable for this. It doesn't matter if they were throwing people off planes, there is always a conservative crowd who thinks it was all better back in the day, usually because they had ties to the government or shallowed party propaganda. Ironically, most leftists would loathe these people if they ever listened to them.

It seems like it's always based on whether they were doing well at the time or not. You'll never find someone who says "yeah I spent 20 years in a gulag on bread and water but it was great for the country" about Stalin or whoever. It's always they were doing great then but it's shit now.

While the way they talk about the unborn is atrocious, at least no child will have to suffer by having these women as parents. These women sound like future serial killers with their lack of empathy.

It's okay, they'll suddenly find themselves in their late ages, alone and unhappy wanting more. They'll have the desire for kids and the haunting feeling they might never be able to- either because they ruined their organs or can never find a man.

Corrupt communist governments were replaced by corrupt capitalist governments, who in many cases were...actually communists in the first place. Hell, look at Ceausescu. Communist dictator killed by communists but the communists trying to kill him were attacked by other communists and I don't think anyone has ever figured out what the fuck happened with that coup.

Basically eastern Europe is shit and Soviet nostalgia is real among the older generation.

They really hated Ceausescu plus he was a fucking idiot. Had he done pretty much anything other than what he actually did, he would have probably died in beachside exile in reasonable comfort. But no, he had to stick it out, he had to be the man. He had to get shoved up against a wall and shot alongside his wife.

He should have run a couple months before then.

It's a pretty tame story. Just another emotionally unstable...whatever they're meant to be. Although I don't understand this quote from the storyteller:

"All these thoughts in a couple seconds as I respond after receiving this sketchy shot of confusion on the inside of my arm."

What's that even supposed to mean?

Got to say, OP is a bit of a faglord. He's shocked and appalled the tranny he antagonized is upset online? Too cheap to mail a book?

Everything about that was embarrassing.

I don't see how the OP conducted themselves improperly. They refused to see a colostomy bag three times and then the owner gets upset and storms off because they couldn't show off a bag full of feces connected to their lower intestine. Then they refused to return a book they lent them in person, and didn't agree to do so even if the OP returned a book through the mail. Then out of nowhere, the colostomy bag owner starts complaining about them on Instagram despite their constant apologies. How else could they have handled that situation?

He should have grabbed the colostomy bag and ripped it off the guy's ostomy, then squeezed it hard, causing it to blow out shit in the guy's face, then slapped him in the face with the shitbag.

The OP is in the right for not wanting to see her shit bag, but as soon as he heard the they/them pronouns he should have bailed. That was the first red flag.

That's kind of hard to do, considering that the troon had the surgery ~four years ago and only had it for a few months.

But at any rate, here's some tard rage. (This guy's posting history is worth looking into).

More from the same guy.

And what Reddit thinks of Chris.

There is still some reddit drama because of the pewdiepie ADL donation going on.
People keep calling to remove the moderator sloth_on_meth, who is one of reddits jobless power-mods who moderates over 100 subreddits and got assigned by reddit siteadmins to moderate r/pewdiepiesubmissions some time ago, when he complained about it not being moderated.
Pewdiepie did confirm in his video today again that he wasn't the one giving sloth mod, but he also said that sloth did some things good and that he is the mod and that people should just deal with it... and that he got told that his subreddit would get deleted if there aren't mods.

Anyway, the current drama still is about how sloth did shut down all criticism towards the ADL when that controversy happened. He did assign some new reddit accounts as mods to assist him at that day and he went full nuclear against everybody who politically disagrees with him. The only political subreddits where he is active are far-left and he regularly shuts people down by claiming that they are alt-right trump supporters.
sloth_on_meth is also mod on the Battlefield subreddit and he did lock that subreddit down when the whole "you don't have to play it" controversy happened. This whole thing was a huge story on it's own, because sloth was just mod there and did get removed by the owner of the subreddit for shutting people down and then the reddit siteadmins stepped in, removed the subreddit owner and made sloth owner.
