I think it's angry people who have no idea what living under communism is like giving up on asking nicely for a socialist reforms.

Things are getting pretty bad in the US. Anger at the inequality is building. And for a few people they are angry enough to buy into the batshit idea that a "dictatorship of the proletariat" would be easier on them then the current system.

Im not sure how it was during the time, but a lot of people in my country that lived under communism want it back

I'd love to know more. Can you share your nation and the general region you're in? Maybe I can visit and speak with these people.

I have a contact in Cluj. I could stay with him and learn about the local sentiment. Do you think I would be able to find people who want communism back in that city?
