   @nichni You mean the terrible terrible 40 years when everybody had a job, nobody was homeless, rent and bread were cheap and daycare/preschool/kindergarten/after school care were free and guaranteed? Before the reunification when the entire economy collapsed and half the population became unemployed, rent went up by a factor of 10 while wages didn’t and we became free to travel but many didn’t have the money for it?

     @nichni The love for Russia is due to indoctrination, though. I still have warm fuzzy feelings for Russia that I cannot shed, I‘m still studying Russian that I started in school. Putin is an asshole that can fuck right off to hell though, especially out of Ukraine including the Krim.

     Me: People were not unemployed and living in existential dread of losing their job and that’s why they might have quite liked that time period

     You: But the businesses!!!111eleven

     It was socialism. It didn’t matter how much the businesses brought in.

     @GreenSkyOverMe @nichni that's quite rose colored, considering most businesses in East Germany were not even bringing in enough revenue to keep business up. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=History_of_East_Germany&wprov=rarw1
