This is such poor logic. Being around when something happens doesn't mean you somehow know a vast amount about that something. People later can study that something and known much more about it than people who were living during those times.

Ask the average American who was alive during the Cold War what the effects of it were on America and its population, they'll say some generic shit they heard mouthed to them by politicians. Ask any 21 year old college student who just finished a course on the Cold War and its effects on America, and they'll have much deeper understanding.

Being old and alive during something doesn't make you knowledgeable about that something than someone younger and educated. You'd know this if you weren't all idiots, but so many of you are dumbass motherfuckers.

For the USSRs faults I wouldn't bet on older people hating their time under it. They did their complaining about the Soviet system in the few years before it got replaced with half a dozen oligarchies.

Also Love how this meme is a prime example of misogyny in how I remember the original meme not mentioning the gender of the teenager, but now since Girls = stupid idealists someone rewrote the caption to explicitly mention the communist being female (so we know that communism = stupid too)

Quick plug for this guy's channel: https://www.youtube.com/@UshankaShow

Not really political, just interesting first-hand accounts of life in the USSR (Ukraine specifically) with a bunch of period photos mixed in.
