I'm sorry you had to grow up that way, and then have to witness all this. I'm in Canada and the word communism is thrown around by our right wingers too. They have no idea how privileged they are. I feel blessed to be born here but my ex was a Pole and the stories are heartbreaking.
Well, we can't help where we were born, but we can definitely help how we grow. I grew up in 1990s Bulgaria and the communists still have quite a stronghold because the older population misses those times. I can definitely say that I recognize lots of signs for an oppressive govt in the US though.
