I must also stop believing my eyes and ears as I grew up in a country bordering the URSS.

I went there. It was a hell hole. Nothing to buy in the stores. I can tell you more.

It also was trying to invade or coerce its neighbours. All The Time. They (the russians) still do.

Capitalism has its flaws but that doesn't mean the soviet union was in any way good. Ffs open a history book, travel, go there and talk to people who lived during the brutal dictatorship of the soviet union and maybe You can open Your eyes.

    That's not data lol, that's anecdotes and nostalgia.

    And it has a name Ostalgie look it up. People are nostalgic of a place the URSS promised them, but it never came through.

    You can easily find data that shows how shitty the soviet union was (or do you too believe the propaganda from that era?).
