              Yes, one part in the soviet Ukraine, second part in socialist Poland. Which party of my family missed the best of communism? [FULL IRONY MODE]

                Do tell what horrors your family lived through. I bet your family was subjected to terrible things like free education, housing, healthcare, and guaranteed retirement. Must’ve been absolutely terrible for them.

                  Free Healthcare as long as you manage to survive the queues and not to die in between. Same with everything. Good propaganda bloke, people kept waiting for own flat 30 years and even after that you didn’t get it without connections. My parents weren’t in the party, the all bought the flat in that bad capitalism.

                  Not mentioning my father beaten down by prison guards because taking part in students protests. So called “path of health”
