Which socialist country did this commenter grow up in? Place your bets! I’m guessing post 1991 Russia.
I’m guessing similar timeframe, but one of the USSR adjacent countries - Poland, Bulgaria, etc
Yup, nobody hates socialism like the 90’s born victims of capitalism.
Honest question, why is this? Is it because they blame the old government for the economic collapse? Or is it just the result of propaganda?
The second one (though this also include the first), every negative effect of the restitution of capitalism is blamed on socialism. Also everything bad up till now is blamed on “remains of socialism” too.
I’m betting Romania
When a lib says “I grew up under socialism, I know how bad it is,” you know it’s one of three possibilities: (1) they’re lying, (2) they’re a gusano, or (3), they were born in Russia or some post-SSR state c. 1992 and think (because the education system apparently went to the dogs after the Soviet collapse) that Yeltsin was somehow a communist.
Libs be like ah damn what would life be if I hadn’t lost 5 siblings to disease and sold organs to afford food
