minus-squareSilverseren@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up23·1 year agoSo wait, are they saying they do consider the USSR communist and that being a positive representation of communism? Oh wait, I forgot, they deny the Holodomor happened, since it happened to the common worker and tankies don’t care about them.
minus-squareFireTower@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up27·1 year agoAverage person: The USSR was Communist. Communist: The USSR wasn’t really Communist. Lemmygrad: The USSR was Communism at it’s finest.
minus-squareSkyezOpen@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up20·1 year agoHad a tankie claim the gulag were actually not that bad and “most prisoners survived.” Oh neat, I guess we’ll ignore the 1.6 MILLION that didn’t.
minus-squareaffiliate@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·1 year agoeven if that were true, surviving is a pretty low bar. you could get tortured every day for 10 years and still survive. what makes things even more absurd is that (like you said) tons of people didn’t even survive.
