I'm referring to people who never actually lived in a communist state but claim to have witnessed first-hand all the anti-communist propaganda they've swallowed
Very democratic, a military coup under direct orders from the State Department overthrowing socialism in Romania and killing/imprisoning former Communist Party members
heres a movie about it with real footage, more of a documentary https://youtu.be/sEZikLuqt68 narrated in english
a lot of romanians nowadays think it was a state-sponsored attack by the americans, i don't know what to say but i sure know life is at least a bit better for most people, and for independent people like myself the much increased freedom is invaluable. fuck commies, any flavor of communism is cancer and should be eradicated
I doubt you have ever spoken to a Romanian about Ceausescu, nowadays Romania has a massive emigration and unemployment issue, with highly corrupt, bureaucratic parties subversant to Western interests, with none of the social security benefits socialism offered.
Tell us more about those halcyon days of Romanian supremacy, Pawpaw!
Spoiler, it ends with this:
...before the sentences were carried out, Elena Ceaușescu screamed, "You sons of bitches!" as she was led outside and lined up against the wall
Like actual communism ever existed. What we got were authoritarian dictators that basically ran a kleptocracy and slapped a “communist” or “socialist” label on it. Facets that looked like the labels were lip service or token at best.
It's a pretty big hint you don't live in commie-topia when the glorious leader is feeding orphans blood transfusions from his mega-palace while Nixon assures everyone he's one of the good ones.
I'd still trust a Soviet cop before I trusted an American one. The American's more prone to 'fear for his life' and dump his entire mag into my chest at a traffic stop. And that's not even getting into potential blackbaggings by the FBI and CIA, where they've literally got clandestine black sites all over the place to get their jollies torturing political prisoners; so I mean. Couple that with the fact that y'all destroyed the Soviets, it's kind of a moot point; so 'ACAB' can only really refer to one strain of pig motherfuck anymore.
