    I’m Eastern European. I think I know my fair share of people who lived in socialist countries. Gladly, we’re not all willing to swallow fascist capitalist propaganda.

      What country do you live in and when were you born? Do you consider yourself as having Russian heritage?

        No. I do not have Russian heritage, nor does my family. I’m Romanian, with a bit of jewish and Czech ancestry. I was born in the 90s. My family is working class. As were my grandparents, and their parents, and so on. Peasants and workers. Always lived in Romania

          I was born in the 80s and live in Estonia. What the soviets have done is inexcusable. The mass rape, stolen land, families broken apart and people deported from their homeland. It is not propaganda. These things happened and every family has their own horrific experience to tell you.

          The world deserves less suffering and it is not going to come at the hands of the Russians.
