MODERATORS
The deliberate suppression of progressive elements combined with the reactionary elements being the other "nationalist" option in not just the common usage but in the sense of promoting resistance and independence from the influence and meddling of the west.
Also in terms of the reactionary elements providing a target and reason for the obvious decline and suffering of people, the red menace is already beaten so you can either assert that everything is basically fine and according to plan(asking people to be delusional) or you can provide false targets and causes.
This also basically goes for East Germany. In practical terms it was annexed by the western side, looted for all its worth then had anything connected to communism dismantled and suppressed harder than nazism(west germany of course infamously at one point had more former nazi party members in the state than nazi germany had active ones).
So who is to blame for the poverty and for what reason? Well communism is suppressed so theres basically one other option for people to take unless they want to take the option of "things are basically fine."
