Has anyone here ever actually lived in a communist country?

Just curious.

Yes, was 14 when communism was abolished. Still remember staying in queue for 2 hours to buy bread on ration cards or 2 days of waiting to get the dead chicken (yep, dead for various reason and not suitable to export so they would be sold to populations that would fight for that meat.. Meat meat meat).
You would even have to stay in line for toilet paper, remember it was more like sand paper haha. Ratio cards were common for nearly any food product. Clothing was hard to get too and so on. Purchasing power was very very low, the only car you could buy (on a waiting list) was a model that failed decades ago at Renault and Romania purchased the patent (Dacia 1300) was outdated even in the 60s but was produced all the way to early 90s. This car would cost you full wage for 5 years.

What else I forgot? Ooo the cold! Winters were hars, heat was centralised but never on, government would ask us to dress more. Remember as a kid would sleep dressed in a ski suit not a pijama. Otherwise u would get sick. Electricity outage was scheduled winter or summer.
More that I can talk, but this was the basics of the communist world. And if you would criticise it or try to escape it you would have a misterios accident or u would disappear never to be seen again. Protect your freedom guys, it is worthed!

You forgot one.
People who are always dissatisfied and want more and want to steal it from everyone else through lies and deceit. It’s called Communism. Also known as Socialism. Also known as Bolshevism. Also known as Satanism.

lmao....

S.Africa is NOT commie!

ALL affirmative action in South Africa is BASED on RACE, not on class (workers, poor).


Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) is a racially selective programme launched by the South African government to redress the inequalities of Apartheid by giving black (African, Coloureds, Indians and Chinese) South African citizens economic privileges that are not available to White South Africans, in essence wealth redistribution.

Go read up on BEE and come back.

I have.

It felt far, far less communist (in the negative sense of the word) than either Canada or USA today, however.

well, they have very sparse living conditions because
the U.S. and NWO have always imposed crippling sanctions
on them, since their inception in 1917.

Just curious.

My German grandfather told stories of the Soviet Union during the invasion, in which he mentioned the ubiquity of propaganda, encountering loudspeakers everywhere in the kolchos. Also empty stores with nothing but books of Marx and Engels in the shelves.

My Ukraine friend did during the iron curtain.

He said the best thing to do is shut up and do say anything you don’t know who your friends are anyone can betray for a loaf of bread.

Ever hear of Armand Hammer ? Trade was going on with Communism the whole time. Especially grains and natural gas.

This was my biggest take away from living in communism, there is little any individual could do to change their situation. It was a perpetual life of mediocre living and a struggle for basic food. The old timers only memory of good times was when the government gave them a sausage now and then. That was the big deal, a freaking sausage.

American freedom allows ability to grow out of poverty and provide an actual living experience. Communism won’t be tolerated by the USA. Ask Venezuela how communism turned every day life into misery.

Any hang ups any person has with police is a speck of concern vs oppressive communism.

Just curious.

Communism is not dead and is alive and more powerful than ever in the American, Western Deep State. The founding father of modern Zi.nism, Moses Hess, was also a founding father of Communism. The Deep State vermin who pulled-off the violent, proxy overthrow of Yanukovych in 2014, and who are also behind the Arab Spring, Syrian Rebels, ISIS, and the ongoing domestic unrest Stateside, are the descendants of the Communist vermin who overthrew Christian Russia in 1917 using the same modus operandi of color revolution and "peaceful protests.". Putin undid all their hard work in Russia and kicked them out and seized their ill gotten gains: this, coupled with their congenital hatred of Russia, is the reason for the non-stop, bipartisan refrain of "Russia, Russia, Russia." They also perceive Donald Trump to be just as much a threat as Putin is to their Communist worldview, which is why they are currently in the process of overthrowing America and all our traditions and monuments with the same modus operandi that was used to such success in 1917.
