Lol I saw the comment that was removed. The comment couldn't have been more neutral saying people who ignore the problems in the most Communist historical societies reduce the perceived integrity of it's proponents.

This mod is the exact antithesis of this meme. Pure censorship.

Modlog has this comment: My grandparents would like a word, since they barely escaped communist rule, while their siblings/other family members didn't. They could tell you first hand what it was like. So go ahead and call me brainwashed.

Do people just not believe Eastern Europeans etc exist lol

Am I the only person in the world with reading comprehension? Can you even find a single fucking claim in that? "I knew a guy once who said it was bad so now the conversation is over"

This is the level of evidence that's sufficient for people brainwashed by 100 years of propaganda.

Doesn't even specify where. Did they escape Cuba? Is the reason they had to 'escape' because their former slaves wanted to kill them? Who knows! Doesn't matter!

I don't think anyone took it as some be-all and end-all argument. It's just an anecdote and reason why the person believes what they do. Removing it as "reason: Typical anti-communist propaganda" as it shown on modlog seem silly.

It’s just an anecdote

It's not a fucking anecdote. Look up what an anecdote is.

Who? What? Where? When? Why?

Not a single one of those questions answered.

100% justified.

I'm sorry, I'm not a native English speaker. I just meant that they just mentioned their grandparent's/family's experience and how it helped form the view he has now. I don't get how that makes you so unhappy.

Well if the comment hadn't been deleted you might've had a change to ask them lol
