  1. Capitalist globalism: Build fence, so you can check who comes, while you let them in. Communist internationalism: Build fence, so one one can leave.

  2. >People cared for each other, helped each other, and had everything they needed to live a good but not Luxurius life. They shot people for trying to leave.

  5. They also did for enlightened reasons, though. Say what you want about commies, but they are fairly good when it comes to sex and religion.

  9. >to be engaged as much as possible with sports for their own good Soviet countries are notorious for training plans that damage most of the people following them, being only concerned with finding the elite that will lead to Olympic medals. The GDR pumped their female athletes full of testosterone, which is where all of those medals came from. >About how housing was easy and cheap. 1/4th of the population fled the country and housing where you don't want to live is always cheap. >Technologically and logistically wise, they were also ahead of many surrounding countries and dare I say even more than west Germany. That 1) doesn't mean anything and 2) is so hilariously absurd that I begin to think you're a troll. >a sexual revolution taking place because class wasn't an issue I bet there is hundreds of pages of socialist philosophy arguing that point, lol. Anyways we have nude beaches now, all without torturing people for disagreeing.

  10. It's pretty much impossible to make everything about your state bad even if you tried. Everything wasn't bad about Nazi Germany or Imperial Germany or the Holy Roman Empire.

  11. Fighting for your homeland is 100% bad when your homeland is industrially murdering people.

  12. @Alexander Storm What does that mean "holding a grudge"? The Nazi party would have done absolutely NOTHING, zero, nada if they hadn't had the entire Germany military and beaurocratic state behind them.

  13. The Soviets did, because they were in a really bad situation as well, but the Western Allies tried to build up Germany pretty early in fear of socialism.

  14. They had to keep people in their country by threatening to shoot them. They literally were running out of people.

  15. My father lived in Nazi Germany and life wasn't that bad.

  16.  @hauntingspectreineurope4530  "Work" ie, they literally had to shoot their own citizens to keep them from leaving. I don't even know how an ideology could possibly fail harder than that.

  17.  @birb1368  It's not "trust me bro", the communists themselves literally documented how their idiotic policies killed millions. Plenty of people had an amazing life in Nazi Germany - doesn't make it a great country.

  18. They should have nuked the Soviets. : 3

  19.  @кто-то-б2г  I can't think of any other instance in which people were shot as a rule for leaving a country. That seems to be a socialist thing.

  21.  @hasyhConfetti  Those people die in the desert trying to go INTO a capitalist country. Meanwhile the GDR citizens were MURDERED INTENTIONALLY BY THE COMMUNIST GOVERNMENT for trying to LEAVE. So what the USA is guilty of is being too attractive and having a desert border. That's a massive own goal, commie.

  22.  @antonsupov4294  How many people are now fleeing out of Germany?

  23. >Life was great according to adults here. My grandfather was a Bulgarian Officer in the army My grandfather was an SS Obersturmabteilungsführer and life was great under Hitler.

  24. How is "escaping" even a win when you're a squatter? The point of squatting is to stay where you are, you don't want to escape.
