I had to dip out of politics, I'm trying to have better time here.

Educated people in general have to say on politics the same things that I said earlier, but they are very nostalgic over less criminalized popular culture, better technical education and rules being followed. So am I to some extent actually.

In Moscow? You're not being fair. Educated people in the soviet union from Moscow lived extremely well and have very positive views. Engineers, scientists, etc will all say positive things. You know as well as I do that hundreds of video interviews will confirm this. Be fairer, claiming that everyone that supports the ussr among the over 60s is just uneducated is definitely untrue. This particular video series is in Moscow and this lady is exactly what I am talking about.

You can't live in Moscow and say this is untrue. You're being unfair.

No recollection at all, I’m 1996, but since transition from USSR to modern Russia didn’t happen in an instance, in various institutions and organizations you can still see in some ways how it was. More in my childhood than now, but still.

Brought up in shock therapy then.

if you weren’t in denial.

I'm not in denial. I'm asking you to be fairer. The data does not support your position. You know as well as I do that 75% of the country consider the soviet era to be when the country was at its greatest (and that this is easily verifiable from many sources), and you know damn well that 75% of the country aren't all uneducated people. You are not being fair.

When I saw this post I thought to myself, this is going to have that crazy tankie writing essays in the comments, and here you are!

Go outside! Being a brain in a vat that rants on social media does not help the revolution.

Same here. Reeks of "We'd get it right!" energy without understanding the inherent flaw of Communism is mankind. We ruin it all.

We can let some communist artfefacts for the ants and bees for when they grow older and take over the world.

Top: Filthy rich capitalists and Boomers that lick up their cool aid

Bottom: Global South that produces both their wealth
