      People only overthrow the government when they get really desperate. Your mistake is comparing communist Russia to capitalist USA. If you compare communist Russia to either tzarist Russia or the cluster fuck Russia is today then yes communism was imesurably better. Unless you were a learned fella.

      Having actually grown up in USSR and lived under communism, I can definitively say that it’s not. I love how a bunch of idiots who are suffering under capitalism got convinced that nothing better is possible and to reject obvious alternatives that would immediately improve their lives.

              Sure buddy. The fact that you find it easier to believe that somebody would lie about having grown up in USSR than the fact that they liked living there really underscores how deranged you are. I even still have my old passport to prove it to you though.

                  I’m not the one cheering NATO proxy wars on here. Maybe you should take your own advice here and sign up for the foreign legion see how that goes for you troll.

                    Right, you are the one cheering for Vladolfs invasion in a sovereign country, whilst uploading a pic of your Russian passport, lol.
