So you're saying pre-communist eastern Europe was a perfect society and the pinnacle of humanity? Wew...

>>789279
Nice picture faggot.

>implying people in Eastern Europe forced themselves to be communist - as if by free will.
>die in a hole

The common people do have a much better life now, since communism has fallen in Eastern Europe.

If you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, consider shutting up. You retarded cum dumpster.

The Russian Empire was a backwards agricultural country, but was slowly getting better. The Baltic countries, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Hungary and Romania, today post-communist countries known for corruption and for being less developed, could be on the level of the rest of Europe. Although Yugoslavia would likely collapse anyway; there'd probably be a war between the Serbs and the Croats. But it is a fact that communism made these countries stagnate - let's not forget that the main reason for Western Europe's development after WW2 was the Marshall plan - the East did not receive any money after the war.

>>789304
Amen to that shit. The reason things here are fucked up (or at least in my piece of shit Eastern Europe country), is because the fuck faces who were part of the communist party still hold majority of the political offices here, and haven't croaked...

Won't help, they've got descendants and apprentices. If your country has socialist or social democratic parties (hell, even liberal and conservative in some cases), enjoy post-communism.

Wow, you guys really seem to be angry about something and blaming an innocent theory for no reason. Theories have never hurt anyone, so what happened to you guys?

What happened? Why are you so angry? Do you need a hug?

>>787326
Hungarian here. Feel free to ask any questions
And no, not mad about most of the trianon clay. I'm mad about our 1942 borders being taken away tho.

>1942 borders being taken away

I'm mad about this too (and i'm not even hungarian).

Yugoslavia was probably one of the better countries of the Eastern bloc and call me autistic if im wrong but wasn't Yugoslavia not part of the eastern bloc because Tito didn't want outside influence from the soviet union, and wanted to be included in the Marshall plan

>>789444
They were kind of a grey area, due to Tito not taking the soviet's shit, yeah. Hungary was considered to be the most "relaxed" part, mainly due to 1956, the country was called the happiest barrack. Look up Goulash Communism if you're interested

>>789444
The main reason was that he didn't want Yugoslavia to become a Soviet puppet, which it would become as part of the Informbiro. It also helped with Yugoslavia's relations with the West. It was less Marshall plan and more loans.

>>789279
You know even if absolute shit holes like Greece, Portugal and Spain managed to became wealthier than those who went communist, it's safe to say communism was shit.
