    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

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

        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.

            Human history is littered with self interested strongmen who are willing to sacrifice those who disagree with them in their climb to power. More so, there are those who aid and abet them - and we get to experience that in the US now - with reasons varying from prejudice to tribalism to misplaced revenge.

          you’re NEVER going to get “actual communism” because it’s an impossible utopian ideology. here’s my ideology: everyone becomes a millionaire and drives lambos and fucks 10/10s every day, no poor people, no orphans, no more suffering

          communism comes from a lack of knowledge of basic economic principles that are always valid no matter the ideology

        Not a communist, but like you’ve ever known lol.

        It’s a pretty big hint you don’t live in commie-topia when the glorious leader is feeding orphans blood transfusions from his mega-palace while Nixon assures everyone he’s one of the good ones.

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