    “there’s no freedom in the USSR, if Stalin thinks you’re ugly you go to the gulag” is 100% propaganda, right?

    Sure buddy. That was just a psyop that the MAN wants us to believe so we don’t revolt and bring back communism.

      Oh no, I’m brainwashed! Lmao

      Sure buddy. Go back to believing everything your school textbooks and journalists on TV have been saying since the Cold War.

          And I do do that. But any discussion or discourse on this is muddled with Nazi propaganda talking points, and it’s impossible to truly praise and truly critique the USSR without people calling you a “tankie”…
