I'm Eastern European, my country was exploited by USSR until less than 40 years ago. My bad for getting excited about the prospect of being able to walk in old age, it's all my fault for -checks notes- joining a freedom of trade and movement organisation
You imperialist coloniser superpower douchebag!
Do you have a source for that? The inefficiencies of Communism and the lack of cheap third world resources is not the same as being colonised or post-colonised like a third world country.
I'm not entering the exploitation olympics here, feel free to disregard my argument if Eastern Europe doesn't clear the suffering threshold in your book.

Not necessarily what you're looking for, but provides some interesting context for others
Why not? It shows that the USSR was doing the opposite.
The first comment mentions as exploitation the dismantled production lines from East Germany. Counting war reparations as exploitation is not a honest argument.
The author shifts the tone latet-on.
It doesn't necessarily mean it was a benefit for the satellites either, though. There's a case to be made it was mutually detrimental to both parties.
