> how much worse off we are than they were during socialism
All you need to understand how false that is is to remember that the machine guns on the border during communism were pointing inwards, so people couldn’t leave.
> constantly worsening material conditions
Every single actual, measurable life quality metric in the EE has improved singnificantly over the last 30 years.
> the remaining socialist countries are slowly winning
Please feel free to point out those “winner” countries.
- dontlaugh 3y agoMy parents were paying 5% of one salary on rent. People younger than me can barely afford rent by pooling together several salaries. The metrics improved for the capitalists that pillaged our countries during the 90s, for sure. It’s pointless talking when you’re so ideologically blinded. Probably because you profit from the exploitation of others, so it’s in your material interest.

What about the people who had to wait for 10-15 years to be "assigned" an apartment? > People younger than me can barely afford rent by pooling Well... If you were fine living in communal flats with shared kitchens and bathrooms you'd be fine. Just like in the good old days. > It’s pointless talking when you’re so ideologically blinded. You were marginally entertaining but I think it's time to go back to reddit. Tanks go brr, amirite comrade?
