tfw u build schools, apartments and hospitals that are still standing to this day despite lack of maintenance, have pretty progressive laws for the time, massively improve living standards only for some dumbass on the internet to compare you to the Nazis.

Look, the PRL had a lot of issues (polish comrades know this damn well), but holy fucking shit man you cannot compare it to German-occupied Poland, where there were Ghettos everywhere and fucking concentration camps (Sobibor, Treblinka, Auschwitz, etc.).

Just like Parenti said, where were the half-starved masses when socialism fell? Where were the countless political prisoners we were told about?

To add to Parenti’s argument why did things like nutrition, poverty, life expectancy, income inequality, etc. get worse after the Soviet Union fell apart?

why why why why why why

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
