    Sorry I didn’t see you’re an anti-communist. Your view makes perfect sense now. Thanks for the honesty!

        the symbol has nothing to do with anything on the list

        Meanwhile USSR:

        “Expresses concern for the poor” lowers inequality to the lowest levels in the region

        “Expresses concern for the treatment of marginalized groups” women suffrage since 1917, massive literacy campaigns regardless of ethnicity or gender

        “Expresses concern over the rise of fascism” defeats Nazism in Europe saving tens of millions of lives

        “Takes an interest in history and philosophy” makes education free to the highest level for everyone, including maintenance wages to university students, and promotes education among adult workers with night programs and in-factory volunteers and after-work programs

        “Wishes for a world where all are treated equally” collaborates with the decolonization of Africa, South America and Asia without engaging in colonialism

              I add a note that appears next to your name to not engage. Don’t need westerners who think that “EU bad, USSR good” to tell me how it was to live in the USSR. Because they didn’t, and I did.

              Now off you f…

                  Anyone 35+ years or older could have been born in the USSR. So any 55 year old would have lived for at least 20 years in the USSR.

                  Do you have problems with math? Or did Putin not give you better scripts?

                    The likelihood of the commenter above being 55+ (in order to have worked a significant amount of time in the USSR) is very small given how we’re in Lemmy. Based on their comments (belonging to post-USSR republic) they’re likely a young Baltic user who grew up mostly in capitalist Europe post-1990, and whose information comes from biased discourse modified by 35 years of anticommunist propaganda, which is extremely prevalent in Baltic countries, together with anti-Russian racism
