East Germany, you are referring to I guess, was living under massive and heavy sanction driven by the USA.
I am not referring to East Germany. It should be obvious from the rest of my post.

Not your economic system gave your country problems it was your oppressors.
It was economic system being forced on us by our oppressor that is Soviet Union.
Quote:
East Germany decided to give in to the oppressors (USA) instead of letting the population die of hunger. They where giving up the entire country to the USA as many wished.
No idea why you keep talking about East Germany. I don't care about Germany after WWII, they started the war and suffered, who cares, they ended up pretty well off anyway. I am talking about countries who were victims of aggression and then got double whammy by getting under the tyranny of Soviet Union. Think Poland and Baltic states.

.imbeciles and ignorant garbage people like your parents who where to lazy and dumb to help drive the economie.
My parents as most people back then worked in state owned ****ty inefficient companies as that was the only options unless you were well connected or willing to do illegal businesses. My grand-grandparents and grandparents were deported to Siberia by communists, their family houses and all other belongings confiscated. They were able to came back after many years by a program of deportations. They weren't able to come back to their motherland but ended up in different part of Poland.

They are probably the ones injecting the party dictatorship bs you frased here, wich was an obvious and totally made up lie driven by cia propaganda.
Go to Poland and talk with anyone born under communism to see it isn't propaganda but reality. I am lucky to only lived first decade of my life under that system.
I mean, maybe you deny Holocaust as well. People died to fight that system. I was born during the time my parent were students and ****ing tanks were on the streets. People were using pillows to secure doors so the tear gas doesn't go in as there were children (like me and my sister) inside. Go **** yourself.

I wouldn't be surprised if you tell me that your family isn't employed, lives of welfare and actually doing the same ever since 1989.
Hard to imagine people come from nothing and become productive members of society isn't it? I pay more than 100x in taxes than average person in my country. My sister is US citizen today, got into American college by learning English by reading books to herself (we didn't have Internet nor money for language courses nor anyone to speak English to nor even any TV channels in English), got 800-680 in SAT while going through completely different education system here. Got accepted into American college, worked to support herself, her first accommodation was windowless room in a basement of Queens. She made it to VP in a major bank before she turned 30. She married a minority immigrant with similar story. You can guess they don't vote for socialists coming from the least privileged background possible but they still pay enough in taxes to support tens of less capable per year.

You have failed all your life seeing thru the propaganda and lies , crimes and horrible acts of violence they commit on a daily basis before breakfast.
My family lived through that. I lived through that. We are successful people today. Big part of it is realizing how destructive communism was and how lucky we are to live in free world where everyone got a shot even coming from literally 0 and being born in literal ****hole as long as that ****hole came under American influence.

You my friend are pure ignorance of the highest order and an embarrassment to Germany and humanity.
I am not German. Dunno why you keep repeating it.
Your whole post is the most offensive and ignorant thing I ever read on twoplustwo. Not only you deny history my family lived and some cases died in but you also insult them for that. It's on par with Holocaust denial - aggressive lunacy.
Quote:
Countries led by people like Stalin, Mao, Putin, Xi, Kim etc are not examples of communism but of brutal tyrannical murderous dictatorships. If you want to argue that capitalism is a better system then dictators for life, I will grant you that.
Communism can only be kept together by brutal dictatorship because it goes against human nature. It's especially infuriating when Americans defend communism. If you are born in America you are ****ing privileged even if you are born in the worst ghetto as one of 8 children of a single parent you still have more opportunity than people who are born under actual communism. Maybe it takes thugs with guns loading your family on a train to the middle of nowhere to understand that. I wish you won't live through that.
