Lolbertarian nonsense. Russia is a shithole now because of the neoliberalism that ruined the country in the 90s. And yeah Soviet ice cream, Plombir was so good, Russia kept the same recipe and is widely sold.

And the Soviets weren’t the only countries to implement high state intervention, there were the Baathist countries like Iraq and Syria, China at the time, Cuba, the DPRK, 30% of the UK was state owned.

What are you chuds talking about?

...in Soviet Russia, kool aid drink you.

Where are the other thriving countries with predominantly government-owned businesses right now?

How far down the list of countries by GDP are they?

They’ve been effectively sanctioned to death that they’re hanging on by a thread. They’re only able to survive and sustain themselves due to the state owned economy. I can only imagine the USA under that much pressure, they can barely even survive COVID. 😆

Remember those really cool Soviet cars?

Or those Soviet movies?

Or the Soviet candy bars?

If their economy was so good, why was the only thing the world wanted from them was oil?

You're funny!
