I fucking love when westerners tell me that my own experiences I lived through are fake. Wtf man, I had a relative who couldn’t work as journalists because they took part in the 1956 revolution, and he had to work as swineherd his whole life later. He died some years ago.
The Party told you to ignore the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
That’s just one famine. I wouldn’t count the 1921-22 famine to any system as that’s was because of the civil war, not from the mismanagement.


Your definition of unemployed differed wildly from the state’s definition. E.g. writers, artists who doesn’t had a day to day job in the classical sense were also considered unemployed if they didn’t agree fully with the state. What if the state said the only job you can get is in a stone mine in Siberia? This was also used frequently for opposition people. They couldn’t get a job in their profession, so they had to choose between a not fitting job and between prison. Is this what you want?
About famines. You compare it to tsarist Russia, and I can’t find any notable one from the 19th century. I wouldn’t compare it to pre-industrial revolution as it was a totally different times. And why don’t you compare it to a country from the list of olympic medals?
And you wrote “No one was starving” then “I literally said one famine”… Please, at least be consistent. You brought up the topic of starvation.


In Hungary the law was called KMK short for Közveszélyes Munka Kerülés, English term is “Social Parasitism”, but direct translation is something like “work avoidance damgerous to the public”. All soviet aligned countries had similar laws. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_parasitism_(offense)
Holodomor happened 1932-33, more than 10 years after the establishment of USSR.


Everyone had a job because it was illegal to not have a job. Homeless people were simply put in prison.
The millions of people who died during holodomor would have a different word about starvation.
If it would be that good, people wouldn’t wanted to escape.

Well, your grandma died thinking her family get on well with each other. You are the one who fought, not your grandma.
I never visit cemeteries and if I can I skip funerals. I don’t like to deal with the material stuff related to death, I like to grief alone.


I don’t have any intention. Whatever. I will be dead by then, I couldn’t care less


I don’t care I won’t be there. The living should decide whatever they want, it’s not my business.
Actually it would solve all my problems
I’m doing my job, by downvoting your comment!

I tried to lick it off as I always do with long hairs on my phone, and now my phone is dipping in my saliva. Thank you OP for making me destroy my phone AGAIn!


You are following topics here, not users. Your username is not really imporant, as you can’t have followers (but you can follow lemmy users in other platforms, but it’s just the side effect of fedration)
Most other fedi platforms are built around following users


Fedia.io is also an mbin instance, you are speaking about the same thing.


If someone has a problem with your alt they can ban it. If votes would be encrypted they would have to defederate the full instance where they come from.
Create separate accounts for privacy not for vote manipulation


If it would be encrypted, it would open up for vote manipulation. There are plans that mods will see who upvotes in their communities. Create multiple accounts on different instances if you need more privacy, separate personalities for different topics.


Safari is the new ie from a developer’s POV. But chrome deliberately ignores some w3c standards, much like ie did back in the days, so some comparison could be made


The problem is the usb. If you want to run windows from a removable drive you need a special installation, called “Windows To Go”.
You can install it with rufus: https://www.digitalcitizen.life/install-windows-to-go/
