    Man, I love how anticommunists can blame everything but their most mundane problems on phenomena that they claimed to have conquered decades ago. Yestermonth I saw somebody blame Poland’s current dilapidation on communism, and a few years before that I could have sworn that I saw somebody on Reddit’s r/libertarian blame Somalia’s current situation on communism, too. What about eastern Germany? Can they blame all of its current problems on us in spite of reunification? How about South Korea, which was briefly part of the People’s Republic of Korea in 1945? Hell, why not go all the way and blame all of Finland’s problems today on the FSWR all the way back from 1918? I mean, at this point, why the hell not? What’s stopping them? Try it!

      30 years of “superior” system and still not fixed smh.

      But seriously, what they actually meant is that despite socialism in Poland is dead since 33 years and we could also argue that dangerous trend begun in 1956 when nationalist revisionists taken the power, in polish political discourse every rightwing party (meaning every functioning party) is calling every other party “socialist” and “communist”. Well maybe except succdems, they are too busy apologising that they are even alive to accuse anyone of anything.
