All the love for the USSR from them is just nostalgia for the times when they were carefree kids

Yeah bro only enlightened westerners are smart enough to recognize why they preferred a certain economic and political system, dumb easterners just want ice cream. They definitely didn't have a better political education than you. Hell, they probably didn't even read Animal Farm!

Fucking chauvinists I stg.

What? Please learn to read first, this is not at all what I said. I just described my experience as a Russian who talked to a bunch of old post-USSR people about what life was like in those years. And like I said, they described horrible things that I wouldn't want to experience, but some of them looked at them with love because they were younger and healthier then

"political education" do you mean endless propaganda, life in a country completely cut off from the rest of the world and censorship of literally everything? Yes, in that case I think I have a better political education. At least I studied at a time when Russia was freer than then and now
