Funny, because data shows almost the exact opposite. Conditions in Ex-Soviet countries were worse for decades after the collapse, and some of them still haven’t returned to pre-collapse levels. The majority of people in the majority of former USSR republics hold positive memories of the Soviet Union, and majorities even believe that life was better when the Union was around.
I don’t know where in my post you thought I was in support of communism in general beyond the idealistic concept of what it could be. In every way, it is a shit show mainly because of the people that are making the decisions.
In no way am I advocating for communism over capitalism/democracy. I’m just giving an analysis from a fairly neutral viewpoint.
Capitalism under a democracy is pretty much a picnic to everyone who went through communism. Fuck this commie shit!
