What ? Why do you have need to bring hostility to a peaceful conversation, where did he say that his father had slaves ?
My parents grew up in communism, and its true it did ruin some countries but it helped out too, its important to not keep this conversation black and white and use communism or capitalism as the ultimate solution to very difficult problem.
Just by looking at your comment history you seem to call everyone and everything fascist or nazi.
Have you considered that maybe just maybe the world isnt just black and white ?
1·8 months agoI would recommend Xonotic Its like unreal tournament and its fantastic. Smooth as butter no lags.
I currently work at an electronic’s store where this is a reality. God, I hate it there It’s offset by how nice some of the colleges are but the sales person tactics that you need to use when the manager is in the store are like 50 questions with each needing 5x no as an answer, or you need to push harder.
I almost vomit at the site of consumerist uneducated environment hating people who do blindly believe what they are told. I try my best to educate some of them so that they make educated choices and are not swindled.
We are told to push a certain in-house brand that is just Chinese crap that always breaks is with 200% markup. Same with the extended warranty.
The best thing is I have more knowledge than any of the staff there. I’m always told when I suggest something to a senior employee in front of a customer that they “know” what is better, and it’s unprofessional to correct a more senior college. A clown show of sorts.

If you are a renter, there is a big probability you move a lot, and buying is simply not so convenient due to your current situation. But it is unfortunate that many people also can’t afford to buy a house or apartment and are only able to rent. What are you, as a landlord, supposed to do if you are living paycheck to paycheck with the mortgage you took for the apartment that you rent ?
I looked at some of the figures in the article most of them see slight improvement and the conclusion pretty much backs up my point of it not being worse but slightly better.
Life expectancy gains have been large and rapid, and life expectancy for both men and women reached its highest level in Russia’s history in 2019.
To the rest of your responses/points, it is somewhat tiering to respond to all of them with a formulated response, so I will ask do you know someone that lived in a former USSR state ? If your answer is no then as I said, statistics and Graphs can get you only so far, what my parents know and my grandparents know but won’t admit out of pride is that USSR sucked, our current system sucks somewhat too but at least I’m not forced to worship the state, can speak freely like you are doing right now, attend a pride parade or KSČM (Communist party in Czechia) parade, and cast my vote in an election.
And so you know, who is voting for politicians that steal from the people ? The same old people who wish USSR was back, my grandparents vote for a party that promises Socialist democracy (SMER-SD) and only thing they have done is steal from the people. Like with the faults of communism/socialism/USSR they ignore scandals and the stealing from SMER.
reasons besides nostalgia
Oh yea, like if you are religious you are a threat to the state and therefore you are unfit for basically any leading role, or your property might be confiscated and you might be sent of to Siberia ?
Lines for food namely bread and if the stars aligned meat.
Big amount of corruption ?
Mandatory conscription to the military (and the corruption there too) ?
Iron curtain ?
Free speech and freedom of expression ?
And much more. That my parents had to live trough/knew that happened to others, information on a graph can only tell you so much. I am my self Atheist, although I do believe there might be higher being, so I do not blame others for believing in them, but as a normal human being I hate when religion is pushed to my face. I also believe there needs to be government regulation to big businesses and love some of the things that are in socialism.
massive life expectancy
I don’t know much about life expectancy in the USSR, can you maybe link some sources, articles I would love to read up on it.
qol collapse under capitalism
Not familiar with “qol” can you explain a bit further ? If you mean quality of life, then I feel, at least for my parents it has improved massively.
Edit: Formatting errors.
I live in former ussr state, 90% of those people are very old, and as to why ? Nostalgia. They always overlook the bad and only bring up the good.
Have you heard about our god and savior newpipe ?
I don’t see environmentalism as a political issue/political but if you want to see politics in anything hey, if there is will there is a way
This is where it most likely originated from:
I feel this is a representation of 2 sides of one coin or rather that thees two have similar objective but go about trying to reach it in their own very different ways, one is violent and the other is peaceful all tough they might not necessarily agree with one or the other’s way of reaching the end goal, they agree on the goal with is saving earth and the environment.

Yes but where else is a big audience and you can get paid without your fans directly paying you ?
YouTube has unsustainable model and that is working right now, they will need to turn a profit. Same for twitter.
