False.

...

Here, have a (you) for your effort.

You might want to change this next time you set up the bait.

How come there are actually many people who've lived under socialism and felt it liberated them / improved their standard of living but the bourgeois media only gives publicity to dissidents who were against it and support capitalism? wow what a brainteaser

How come the 1996 Russian elections had to be rigged by porkies across the globe so that people do not elect the communist party again

I have a really hard time finding people who actually like living under capitalism. My guess is because they're off in their own gated communities and don't have to deal with us common folk.

IT WASN'T TRUE COMMUNISM TRUE COMMUNISM HAS NEVER BEEN TRIED ONLY STATE CAPITALISM THAT'S WHY IT FAILS BECAUSE CAPITALISM CAN NEVER WORK READ A BOOK

Because it's easier to dismiss it as "the reason it didn't work is because dumbfuck Third WorldersRussians are the missing link between apes and humanity"

Except that is not true.
t. most people from the former USSR

The fact that this argument is repeated often does not make it any less true.

Should we doubt the holocaust because it was used so often against nazis?

ok

you lose, fag. fuck off

...

I lived under communism and didn't hate it.
Simply because what came after that was even fucking worse.

Isn't that what you're doing?

damn…an oldfag at 8ch.

Exactly. Even by porky standards Russia only recovered a couple of years ago the GPD it had as USSR.

most of the time its state capitalism.
and if were talking about USSR and like countries on the edge in Europe just wanted to hell just stop fucking dealing with bread lines

...

The co-leader for this party is a DDR apologetic

I agree that communism is the better system but I always see these whenever this argument is brought up and it gives a conflicting message

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

All capitalism is state capitalism.

...

Source me up plz

As an eastern German this is my response:

Literally the only ones that hated the Soviet Union tbh

Met a chick who told me how shit life was in the Soviet Union and how her family had to flee during the second world war. I asked where they fled from and she said "Lithuania, my grandfather was even a war hero". in other words her grandfather was a nazi on the run

How come OP has to use vague assertions and weasel words so that his question is impossible to disprove?

You don't have to glorify 20th century actually existing socialism in order to be a socialist, but "everyone who has lived in a former socialist state absolutely hated it!" is a fucking meme with no basis in reality.

I'm from Ukraine, and my family fled after the fall of the CCCP, many people did that. Also the majority of people in modern Russia support Communism, the communist party has won every election in modern Russia. But the Yeltsin/Putin government has rigged every election so they win. Same with the Ukraine.

what

ty famrade

You can literally see East Germoney

He explained that the elections are rigged in both Russia and Ukraine which is very different then the official result

source?

I mean I can't document the fact that the communist party won everytime as that poster alleged but it makes since bc its the largest opposition party even if it is a bit shit tbqh famrade.

It is well-known that Russian elections are notoriously corrupt.

Just because something wasn't communism doesn't mean that it's not better than the neoliberal hellhole.

fucking REKT

Because the millions of dead can no longer speak.
