As I said before, to the ones living there now, not who fleed as "refuges" to the west. Even the bourgeois owned "Der Spiegal" came out with an article over 53 percent defend the legacy of the GDR.

But, if you long for the good old days of purges, plots, mass deportations, forced collectivization, and social repression, then I won't try to dissuade you. Still, even Lenin thought that Stalin was a monster. Holding him up as a model of what the world needs today would be laughable if I didn't know that you meant every bit of that.

Well accounting most of this is blown way out of proportion by western propaganda including the so called "50 million murdered", Yes. I am a Marxist-Leninist and guess what? A revolution is not a dinner party... Were there mistakes? Of course that doesn't mean repeat the same things. You ignore the account that 13% of prisoners in the gulags were political, the rest were thieves, rapists. Also during the time, the Nazis have heavily infiltrated so what was suppose to be done? Go around asking who's a nazi etc? And the kulaks? They refused to give up any land for collective farming while the masses starve? And also you can't compare death tolls of Communism, because Western Imperialism has murdered over Billions and continues to starve off 10,000,000 a year in the third world so don't even go there. Also most of what you mentioned is done by your own government and much worse, but again, don't even go there. And for the final time, why do I have to reveal this personal information? I don't. One final note, as the imperialist powers collapse from within, which is (VERY SOON), the people will start looking for desperate solutions which it's one or the other. And I think you know which one that will be.
