In my country food was rationed, you would wait in endless queues for hours just to get 1/4 of a bread. There was not much other than bread, milk and some vegetables (meat was rare). If you did not have a job, the state would take you and send you to a crazy big project of the state where you would probably die (work camp). If you had different oppinions about politics, you were basically captured, tortured and then killed. Every second neighbour was an informer for the state, no one to trust. Maybe your country was much better, but I can’t understant how you can praise that. I love the ideology of socialism, but USSR was a horrible implementation of that.

I was born in an ex-USSR country. You probably just miss being young, not the actual regime. It was objectively horrible.

You have no idea how people lived there…
