Solidarnosc

Was there ever a positive aspect to this movement or were they malicious reactionaries from the get go? Where they even a legit trade union?

What was Socialist Poland like compared to other Eastern Bloc states?

bump

they never really collectivized for example and it was always one of the weakest links in the bloc.
and from what i heard they were always reactionary faggots, yes.

Pretty much like any other authoritarian socialist state.

Long lines, low supplies of goods, the party shooting workers etc. etc.

Pretty shit desu, got teargas'd in Krakow when I was a student.

poland was already reformist and liberal as fuck, if you hippie faggot still got into trouble there you would've gotten a bullet under normal circumstances when ML were to be enforced

Have you ever thrown rocks at men wielding automatic rifles?

If Poland was 'soft' according to your description, then I am fucking glad I was born there rather than under any other regime.

were you shot? no. end of story, hippy faggot.

it was based on the anti-communist catholic ideas of corporatism

Workers organize in an union and go on strike demanding better work and living conditions.

Tankies call it reactionary and prove yet again they're just LARPing teenagers with masturbatory fantasies of becoming a new Stalin.
