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

it's so funny that people actually think the USSR was communist. (spoiler: they weren't)

[-] MarxMadness@lemmygrad.ml -1 points 1 year ago

Time for the 20-year-old authorities on life under the USSR to come out

Warsaw Pact, but yeah. It's astounding how eagerly some people will lick boots if they're painted red.

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

[-] PugJesus@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

... yeah, Ceausescu's brutality was definitely Westoid propaganda. You caught us.

A lot of tankie seething ITT, here's a pic of Cauceascu getting BTFO'd for you to take home.

Commies already downvoting. Typical.

[-] hark@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Why indeed would communists downvote an "anti-communist fighter"? Truly a mystery for the ages!

People are going to post Félix Rodríguez hagiographies next and then throw a hissy fit if they don't get 100% positive karma.

Tankies try not to support a brutal and massively corrupt dictator who managed to turn the proletariat against him challenge (NEVER BEEN DONE)

[-] Aux@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

It looks like people have forgotten what communism actually is in just 3 decades...

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] Aux@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

No, we had exceptional communism implementation.

ACAB

And C is not for cops

[-] sgtlion@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

The C is for counterrevolutionaries, I understand. Of course as a group, it also encompasses cops.
