@Radical_EgoCom Kind reminder that promoting any opinion against communism was illegal in USSR through its entire existence but a few last months (punishment up to execution inclusively). And now a commie complaints about "political repressions". Funny.

"Ukrainians' best national anthem"
You are not Ukrainian and it is not your decision what is the best anthem or how shall they select their future.

"May the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic one day be revitalized!"
Mind your own country, Ukrainians will decide for themselves.

@Radical_EgoCom Even if you believe that freedom of speech in that regard was somehow impaired after 2015, there is a large time frame from 1991 till 2015 when there were no obstacles at all. However, the popularity of the communist party of Ukraine gradually faded during this period of time [ Wiki: Communist_Party_of_Ukraine ] (which, as of me, is quite consistent with a long-time process of deconstruction of soviet lifestyle and getting people more used to life in a normal non-communist world), and the mentioned law was passed after the party lost their parliament status and became completely marginalized.

In general, I think the information I have provided till now is enough to claim that there is a strong opposition versus the communism rule and ideology in the modern Ukraine (results of scientific searches followed by legal investigations, election results, legal recognition). If you have any other opinions in that regard, try to find and provide any direct evidences in favor of your position rather than endlessly question mine.

@Radical_EgoCom Please provide any direct evidences in support of your claim.

@Radical_EgoCom We are talking about #crimes of #communists, which modern communists try to silence. About this was my initial post. The man-made #famine in #Ukraine killing millions of people was a notorious example of such crimes committed by the #soviet authorities of the #USSR (to which that part of Ukraine belonged in the time of question), constructed following the ideas written in the works of #Lenin you are so intensively distributing. And it is only one on the list. I don't know which kind of happy experience of some ex-citizens should "statistically" overwhelm this.

In Ukraine, the totalitarian soviet regime is condemned by a law adopted by freely elected parlament, and I am not aware about any non-marginal group of citizens questioning this decision as of now. https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/317-19#Text

@Radical_EgoCom if you are really interested in the topic, the good place to start would be the decision of #Kyiv Court of Appeal in the criminal case upon the fact of the crime of #genocide committed in #Ukraine during the years 1932-1933: https://holodomormuseum.org.ua/en/resolution-of-the-court/

It is translated into English and analyses quite thoroughly the "legal" base (decisions of #soviet authorities), statistical data, eyewitness' testimonies etc.

Part of the documents are also published there, eventually translated, part can be found elsewhere, like the infamous "Decree 7-8" or "Five spikelets Act" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_Spikelets

@Radical_EgoCom you are trying to persuade somebody that my opinion or even experience of my family in USSR is anecdotal. I try to explain that such experience is overwhelmingly common in ex ussr. You try to oppose by citing some anecdotal examples of people who have warm memories about their life in the soviet times. And continue to post Lenin's propaganda writings in English translation. If it is everything you can do in your desperate tryout to explain that black is white, I think we are done here.

@Radical_EgoCom I think you need to educate yourself about real history of soviet crimes before writing some nonsence about "anecdotal evidences".

@Radical_EgoCom this logic can be applied to any regime ever existed. There are for sure people who liked living in Nazi Germany - is it a reason to spread "Mein Kampf" and propose to educate oneself? I don't think so. There are a lot of people happy in USA, European states, Israel, India etc. - does it mean we all must became alike? I don't think so. In Ukraine, the consensus is clear - no return to the soviet past, condemnation of the crimes and cruelties of the soviet regime and trying to overcome the soviet legacy in laws, way of living and style of thinking. If you want to find Ukrainians who like to rebuild USSR - feel free, but find a place far away from us all.

@Radical_EgoCom It is an incorrect comparison. People could have the same or even much more positive experiences without the need to survive totalitarian terror if soviet union never existed and commies never came to power.

@Radical_EgoCom "the Soviet Union = Gulags, famines, etc"

Yes it is. Almost each of us have somebody among the relatives repressed in some way by soviet authorities.

If anybody has a sentiment to soviet times because he was young and healthy or the soviet state make him somehow to believe that he lives in a beautiful country (this is an area for psychologists and sociologists), it does not deny the reality that soviet state was a place of terror in some its period and quite an ugliness in the rest of the periods.

@ottercynical "Communists make whiny posts on the Internet and get arrested for being publicly communist" Very good, that the world made them degrade to this stage. In XX century, communists exterminated whole nations and social groups. In Ukraine, where I was born, commie authorities exterminated millions of people in three famines, at least one of which was premeditatedly organized to obliterate the civil unrest against their "great" plans, and at least two nations (Crimean Tatars and [soviet] Germans) were forcibly resettled from their homes to unpopulated areas of modern russia with severe climate, barely suitable for living. I believe that any Ukrainian has somebody among relatives who was a victim of what these folks have done. So nice try, but no.

@Radical_EgoCom happens, however more often it is about their youth rather than the regime. And definitely no sane person misses famines, Gulag, massive repressions, iron curtain, empty shelves, propiska and other "beautiful" stuff.

@Radical_EgoCom and what this communist propaganda does here? Dude, I was born in a country where they tried to implement this. The results were devastating. So when I say that #communismkills, I know what I am talking about.

Nothing new. #Communism kills, devastates and humiliates. When the #crimes of commies are made public, #communists try to silence the truth.

"The #Embassy of #Ukraine in the #Hellenic #Republic expresses its strong protest regarding the violent provocative actions committed by members of the #Communist Party of #Greece during an event organized by the #Ukrainian community in the municipality of Mandra-Eidyllia to honor the memory of the victims of the #Holodomor.
The Embassy condemns in the strongest terms the disgraceful disruption of this solemn commemoration, which is of deep historical and emotional significance to the Ukrainian people."

@tinydoctor despite I support anti-surveillance actions, I am afraid I can't support this idea. According to the info about this program, it is so surveillance-heavy that shall plainly be avoided by all means. Developed in Belarus 🚩, obscure history regarding alleged sharing data with Facebook 🚩, "generous" ability to use "anonymous mode" after 2022 (why the hell this all was compulsory non-anonymous before?? ) 🚩 - like, what? If whoever keeps using it after all that, I wonder if a bunch of geek men trying to spoof their own data could make any difference other than slight increase of user base.

Actually, I think that the best we can do to promote #xmpp is to use it more.

My JID is in profile description, feel free to join.

@JessTheUnstill @ARCANON @nixCraft well, hope you will succeed.

@JessTheUnstill @ARCANON @nixCraft do you mean like never going offline?

@aral I wonder how people seriously discuss character limits in 2023.
