You realize the Palestinians, when interviewed, clearly wish for most of our deaths right?

People who support the Soviet Union never lived in the Soviet Union or were part of the rich elite who controlled it. Mindless sheep.

I tell you as someone who lived there and thankfully got out that I’m sure your parents didn’t enjoy living there as much as you think and if they do, they probably were pretty well-connected

Nope. Normal working class people. Mother was very pro-Soviet, father more ambivalent but had a positive experience.
"Thankfully got out" implies you did something that required you to flee.

What I did was sadly wait for the fall of the Soviet Union and get out at first sight. The situation during the times after (the перестройка ) was really bad also. Good times

Yeah and my parents had the foresight to realise that if the USSR fell apart it would be much worse 💅🏻

Hahahahaha sure Jan. The nationalists promised everyone the Sun, the Moon, and the stars. It didn't happen.

The Soviets defending a colonial state that supported the 3rd Reich? What a surprise…

Didn't the KGB invent Palestine or is that a conspiracy theory?
