What was your country doing in the '50s?

Eastern Europe. :^)

>>74316129
killing gooks and developing nuclear weapons

>>74316129
Pumping out babyboomers

Re-staring nepotism and corruption that would ultimately be our last nail in the coffin.

wtf mate? are you one of those homosexes?

Being poor, living in a dictatorship, and if your family members had been on the Republican side in the civil war, they were most likely dead or in prison, and you were blacklisted from jobs and education.

Enjoy working in a shitty mine in the north of Spain and coming home to your 25 kids because condoms make the Virgin Mary cry.

Maybe you should be asking why Estonia was so quick to want to jump ship in the first place.

>>74316523
Stalin committed more atrocities against your own people than any of your enemies combined.

stalin is not some not-us dialectic
they are called purges and they were meant to tighten the line

hence no one can rightly claim stalin as a georgian nationalist bent on revenge when it was stalin himself that forced georgia into the ussr in the first place

a true servant of the people, beyond petty western morality

>>74316129
we were trying to take the next step forward to a more complex industrialisation, the Rural Society (not the peasants, the propietarians/owners of the big fields and farms) didn't want it and it went all to the trash, electrodomestic fabrics, aeroplane factories all to the fucking trash m8eight. Then a couple of coup de etat here and there, short democracies and more dictatorships

just nuke this place lmoa

What Butthurt Belt don't tell you is how we rebuild everything Nazis destroyed and give them jobs, health care, education and better living standard than Russians. Instead they have parade honoring memory of Waffen SS and beg USA to put missiles on their soil aimed at Russia.

I heard you removed everyone who didn't want to be commies and everyone with any sort of education and made them freeze and starve in Siberian death camps or on the Kazakh steppes.

We didn't have war damage or live in a dictatorship, but it would still be a pretty boring, shitty life by modern standards.

>work in a mine
>live in some ugly, cramped prefab home with your fugly wife and 3 brats running around
>die of cancer at 52

Also a lot of men had PTSD from the war and became alcoholics or abusive to their family.

>>74317072

The Balts are the niggers of Eastern Europe

>Get colonized by the Russians/Germans without trying to resist
>The Russians have to build everything because Balts are lazy niggers
>When the Russians leave, Balts have to beg EU's money and America's army because they are scared of their Russian minorities and too lazy to have a decent economy

Really makes you think

Wikipedia claims that Uruguay had a huge economic boom for about 10 years after WWII, but there was a huge crash in the late 50s.

>>74317772
then and now we only care about football, I guess they felt pretty happy back in the day

>>74317745
The 50s, I guess that's when everyone in France was fapping to Bridgett Bardot. That shit was banned here in our merry Catholic dictatorship.

>>74317821
In the 50s we had the Indochina War but nobody gives a shit about it
Also the Algeria War, the death of the parliamentary republic, De Gaulle took the power and made a new republic where the president have much more power

>>74317745
You have to go back, Ivan. There can be no more foreigners in Europe any more. It is sad, but you have to go back.

Do most french today like de gaulle?

You know how they censored Hollywood movies in the 50s with the Hayes Code? Well, when those movies were shown in Spain it was much worse. Couples kissing? Nope. Women showing cleavage? Forget it. That meant that pretty much all Marilyn Monroe movies were a no-go.

>>74317974
Franco was what De Gaulle wished he could be.

>>74318051
Didn't the regime lighten up a lot by the seventies?

>>74317974
Today:
>French conservatives (Le Pen, Fillon etc) adore him
>French nationalists/far right hate him because of the Algeria war
>French liberals/leftists hate him because they hate France and of "hurr durr the president have too much power"

>>74318127
so le pen's FN is not far right?

>>74318224
No it's not
The French far right is anti-Republican (monarchist) pro-Catholic, and against elections
The Front National is Republican, secular and democratic

>>74318105
Worst years were pre-1955. Economic prosperity returned once damage from the civil war was repaired and Spain's international isolation was ending (we were a pariah state for years after WWII and the Soviets kept us out of the UN until 1955). By the 60s, we were booming economically and Franco starts getting old and senile, so he was much less active in governing the country. By the 70s, he was over the age of 80 and pretty much just a figurehead.

Things did liberalize from the 60s although police were still arresting kids for wearing long hair or listening to the Rolling Stones in the early 70s. When democracy came in 75, everyone sort of went insane for a while. During 80s, young people were having crazy rave parties, orgies, and going to rock concerts. It was crazy how degenerate Spain was in the 80s.

The army tried to carry out a coup in 1981 (they were a bastion of pro-Catholic Francoists) but Juan Carlos made them stop, thus preserving our infant democracy.

And yet most of them are doing better than you are now. Also you had a bad habit of invading those countries when they didn't tow the line, making the population resent you. Most of those countries are trying to look to a new future that isn't dominated by Russia, something you don't seem to understand.

>>74317137
Great, I'm sure the NKVD scumfucks were real lenient when they carted off whole families.
