@koifish Niggers.
@Firefly And the others?
Right, and we all saw the world class living standards they had in the Soviet Union...
Under communism....
@killsometime Got to love living in a glorified closet.
@Firefly you’re right. What I’d give to live rent free in the Soviet Union...
@killsometime Most people had more space per capita than in Japan, Holland or most capitalist countries
With free heating, almost free gas
almost free electricity
@Firefly But those things are usually paid for you if you are renting.
^^^^
You still agree to live and work in the Soviet Union. Not cause trouble and follow the law. You are technically still living with a contract
Just a different one
And you agree to not question the human rights violations done by the government
If you break your contract... you get shipped to Siberia
You are not forced out of the apartment if you don't pay
@killsometime If you do not agree voluntarily, then you will be put into a hole in the ground.
@Firefly Bullshit.
Because you actually don't pay, lol
You don't even need to pay
@Firefly Wow, what a conveluded way to state that.
@Firefly And, in reality, would you really like to live in a glorified closet that has barely enough room to sleep in? While everything else is shared?
@Firefly you have any evidence to back up that most former Soviet citizens wanna go back to the good old days?
@Firefly While they may be "free", your living conditions were significantly downgraded.
What you don't pay for with money, you pay for with forced labor.
@Firefly I don't give a damn what blogpost with exaggerated polling states, the USSR was still shit.
@Firefly damn, you lived there? You must be relativley old for someone who uses discord
@maostravelagent I'm here to hold this server, I'm an admin
@Firefly Wait, I just looked at this, and it said that 56% has negative feelings over the collapse, it didn't state that they actually regretted the collapse of the union.
@Firefly have you ever considered the idea that those that miss it, probably miss the fact that the USSR influence globally and challenged the US?
Does it show they actually miss the communism or just the USSR in general
@killsometime Nobody is alive who was present during actual soviet style communism.
@killsometime or maybe they liked the idea of no homeless on street, no 75$ a month salary, working industry, free education and healthcare, absence of rent, zero unemployment
@killsometime USSR in general
@Firefly The thing is that those things were absolute bullshit claims.
@Firefly the fact that the USSR used the military to hold everyone in kind of belies your argument for how great it was
Industry was infamously sub par to the west, homeless were very much present especially in the urban area's, as well as that, education and healthcare were also disasters, being shit compared to their competetors, and rent was also present as well, even if you would like to object, as well as that unemployment was also very present as well in the soviet union, the claims that these weren't present is complete bullshit.
