I wasn't born in the Soviet union, but I have asked lots of more older people, all were negative, the best thing they said was that they built schools... and those were mostly the ones they destroyed, and have you noticed a pattern in .ml users which support what the Soviet union most if not all of them didn't experience it or live in a place where it was you just glaze china, Russia and etc.

Cool, as I said I have spoken to people who look fondly upon it, as well as other Socialist systems. Plus, I have done a great deal of research on these systems beyond simple anecdotes. Marxists tend to support Socialist countries like the USSR, and I'm a Marxist-Leninist. I don't just "glaze" Socialist countries, I contextualize them and give reasons why I support them, and why I want to create a system similar to them in my country.
