Was the USSR really that bad?

I mean yeah, i hate the same degeneracy Jow Forums does.
thing is, the soviet union didn't have these things. everyone had a job, was married young, and everyone was pretty much ethnically homogeneous. like legit, what was wrong with it? how was it any more jewed than the u.s was in the 60s and past?
every older person i ask who lived in the eastern bloc talk about with great nostaliga and how everything was better then. so which one is it? seriously.

what happened to Russia? They used to be white. you go watch a video of Russians today and half of them are Turks/Asiatics

political suppression and indoctrination of ideology, increased paranoia from surveillance, laziness being encouraged due to lack of economic incentives for performance

that being said there are some positive aspects of it

It was better for Russians during communism than it was before or after it

>everyone was pretty much ethnically homogeneous
There was like 20 different ethnic groups, stop this meme.

some of the other SSRs/warsaw pact countries got fucked though. Russia was doing pretty well in comparison to Estonia, Latvia, Poland, Czechoslovakia, East Germany who were better off without socialism.

yeah but they were all separated.

Too many retards who think "white" is an ethnicity. The USSR had 15 different republics that are now separate ethnic countries plus a few other people like chechynas and tatars that live in Russia.

What? Nuh-uh. People could freely move through the country. You couldn't stop someone from Kazakhstan going to Moscow.

they self segregated. if he was going to moscow he must've had a good reason for it.

the other ethnic groups grew and they mixed too much. before they were separated and subjugated, now they are all mixing with Turks and such and foreigners and immigrants.

because an alternative was present at the time that actually had all of those things in real life and for the native Germans living under it, it was demonstrably not plagued by red terror

The cold war was communism vs liberalism
The liberals won, unfortunately, and for whatever reason have now taken to calling themselves communist
The """communists""" today share absolutely nothing with the communists of the Soviet Union or any other legitimate socialist country
The Soviet Communists were pretty Jow Forums friendly
They understood that after the capitalist class was deposed a new normal had to be created
So Soviet culture quickly developed something akin to western morality to combat degeneracy
Meanwhile to combat communism the west became fully degenerate
Communism from the 20s to the 60s and early 70s was peak comfy, and hopefully one day makes a return

Everything they touched they turned into shit. They ruined the lives of every eastern european for atleast 5 generations.

it was fine in the beginning, but everyone fucking starved when someone got greedy, along with cia nigger interference.

not true, the baltics were pampered up heavily with soviet money, they were poster childs of the republics

Wow this level of american education. The baltic states were the pampered babies of the USSR.. always got more money and better treatment than the rest.

Russia got screwed over hard, spent quadrillions on improving the Stans and the Caucasus.

>This meme again.
Communism has always seeked a global communist world, fuck off.
>they self segregated. if he was going to moscow he must've had a good reason for it.
Okay, now you're lying. It was like a Federal Republic, but you really couldn't stop people from going places.

these people look like white americans

why does Jow Forums claim russians are not white?

>Jow Forums is one person
Retard

>everyone had a job
The worst meme ever.

Leftists ALWAYS forget to mention that the much of these "jobs" were only "jobs" on paper, but the workers were mostly either doing nothing during their "work" or producing nothing of value.

In the People's Republic of Poland we even had a bunch sayings mocking it like:
>Whenever you stay or lay, they will pay you 1000 zlotys

yes it was "that bad"
millions of workers, farmers, and just regular people were murdered
most people lived in constant fear of the government and organized crime
economically it was in the shitter all the time
when it finally collapsed it was because they had several revolutions going at once because people were just that unhappy
think about it
just how unhappy does a population have to be to take on tanks and machine guns with rocks?

I guess it's also worth pointing out that Communism isn't devised in inherent reference to traditionalist ideals, those are and were at the time, expressions of old traditionalist thought that were retained in most countries during the transitional period of the 20th century. The Soviet Union and its adherence to traditionalist ideals (which even then, are drastically overstated for agitprop) were not "Communism's display of trad thought" they were "Communism economics applied to a country with some social traditionalism left over". That is why Communists of today can adhere to Marx's economic notions while still being degenerate clown-dick sucking freaks.
Fascism considers itself a third position due in large part to the fact that is not just a traditionally economic or traditionally social model, but an entire philosophy concerning all walks of life. And unlike Communism, whose economic theory now is just in-group cooperation overexpanded to arenas it cannot be maintained in (ie literally what progs do concerning racial unity), the cozy trad village ideal that Fascist thought invokes can actually work IRL.

the alternative at the time was very good, i'll admit. living in 50s america or europe must've been a god damn blast.
but slowly it degraded. it turned into the shit we have now.
arguably not true. especially after the '50s.
i'd argue it was shit at the beginning. in the beginning it was actually the most jew-ey and had the most suffering. things got better after 2ww.
yes they would. moscow was almost entirely ethnically russian or "white"
i think experiences in poland were different. everyone i ask has a different experience. most poles always say negative things.
that is not how the soviet union collapsed.

ok, so I left out a lot of details
people who could were leaving and those that couldn't were rioting
there were a lot of other factors but the flat truth is that once the central authority let up a little, people got out of the soviet union as fast as they could

Do you have any idea how much economic potential Russia wasted under the banner of communism?
I’m glad it’s dead and will stay dead.
