Now do this meme with any country in Eastern Europe that actually has experienced communism after ww2. Bonus point if you pick one where the USSR has placed their troops to "prevent regime change instigated by foreigh agents and protect the people from a civil war".

Slavic brothers came to aid us with their tanks. Lol.

    I cant speak for the chinese, but the data presented in the first article for czech republic is wrong.

    I do not mean to discredit any poll in that article as i am sure we could be throwing polls at each other all day and it would be pointless.

    Instead lets have a look at our parliament who the people actually voted for:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parliament_of_the_Czech_Republic

    Communists dint make it into the government. But oh look. There arent even any communist MPs in the opposition.

    How is this possible that there are no communist MPs when there are 200 seats in the parliament? Odd. It must be because there isnt a communist party.

    Weird. There is one.

    It just didnt score a single fucking seat. How is that possible when a majority of the people want the regime back?

    Seems like "a majority of the people want it back" claim is simply incorrect. Despite what your little article says.

    I just hope you tried to mislead people accidentally.

    Polls shows that 71% of Brazilian population wants 5 day work week instead of 6, Brazilian people voted for a bunch of centrist/right wing fuckers that doesn't want to end the 6 day work week. What people wants and what people vote is not always the same for a bunch of reasons.

    Why do all you people talk in the same cringey pseudo-Joss Weadon loser speak?

    The US literally has a higher incarceration rate than China or than USSR did under Stalin, but do go on. Really highlighting the quality of your intellect here.

    No we are literally talking about that right now because you're braying about gulags here. Also, learn what ad hominem is if you're going to use it. Ad hominem would be me saying your argument is wrong because you're an imbecile. I'm addressing your argument directly on its own merits while highlighting the fact that you are in fact an imbecile. It's perhaps too subtle a difference for you to grasp given the limitations.

    The fact that you just keep doubling down here is absolutely hilarious. Just take the L and move on bud.

    What of the soviet union? We were never part of the Soviet Union. We were just occupied by it's soldiers. (Oh no, did they really do that? That was not nice.)

    There is no Soviet Union to bring back for Czech people. The poll is refering to the communist regime in Czech Republic.

    Turns out only ca 3% of the voters wanted the communist party to have a say in how the country should be run and didnt win any seats.

    Sad trombone noises
