Before Ya’ll say anything, refrain fromdoing the exact same thing that this sub does. Remember, History is nuanced, and it’s not like this post is 100% bullshit

I dont like those nasty commies.
None of their countries worked. None. Not a single one. Call Eritrea and North Korea or the USSR (oh wait).

I will never forget that time when someone posted about the allegedly good treatment of the Swedish minority after the annexation of Estonia by the USSR, then many comments called out about the horrible treatment other minorities faced in the Soviet Union. Do you know what the justification was for this treatment? Apparently, those minorities had “bourgeoisie tendencies” and had to be deported around the USSR to be “cleaned” of those tendencies. Bro literally justified ethnic cleansing, I couldn’t believe my eyes

You could argue that the majority of population of the USSR were prisoners. They couldn’t leave after all and would be shot for trying to do so. There were times they couldn’t leave their districts. They had to have a passport to move in their own country, it was a crime to do so without authorization.
