I'm right wing but I have to admit Slavic Bolshevism was the peak of human progress, technology and civilization
>>
I dont know if right wing fits my worldview, I used to think capitalism was a necessary evil but I dont focus on economics too much for the past 10 years
I see cheap housing + industry + construction (create jobs, make's people lives better for the most part and create a sense of hope) as three major pillars of how society should be measured

Macroeconomics and stock market is autism

Russia became good after WW2 due to some key elements:
Housing was free, large avenues, people living in buildings creating a more or less unity specially in a country where is cold and russian people are not like americans where they need to constantly talk, clap and make noise, etc.

Similar to North Korea, large avenues, apartments with central heat, people living in the same conditions as yourself so you dont feel angry seeing injustice with your own eyes daily.
Even during summer russian kids are not playing football or whatever on parks, etc. This helps to avoid bullying and sectarianism

I also think cheap electricity plays a role in why russians and chinese are less stressed than western people. I grew up with my grandmother being obsessed with turning the lights off, my mom is also like this. This creates a bad environment, revolt, feeling of being "an invader in my own home"

What is the point of having 2 billion transistors in a 4nm chip if you cant even relax when the lights are on because your income is drained by electricity bill. It's so fucking tiresome that with all technology we have the main thing to bother the young generation is that they cant even fucking consume electricity in peace

I know that people didnt eat well in the soviet union in the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s
But what was cooked created a sense of existing, eating with your family instead of going out and eating a bread with meat made by a miserable wageslave

>During the 1970s, electricity in the Soviet Union was exceptionally cheap, with residential rates often considered virtually free or symbolic, heavily subsidized by the state. The price for household electricity was generally fixed at roughly 4 kopecks per kilowatt-hour, a rate that remained largely unchanged for decades

I have relatives in Belgium they say it's a stress to teach kids to not spend more than 3 minutes on a shower. Stressed and insecure children since early age
>>
I support social democracy and vaguely liberal social mores, but I think I'm right-wing because I am against immigration, multiculturalism and cultural guilt. I think people should be supermen - proud, free, joyful. I think Nazism sans the violence would be quite utopian

Soveits didn't invent anything.
With all there boasting about "le progress" they left no legacy. I can post Western made inventions forever.
Soviet inventions? *Crickets*

There was a lot of bullying and interpersonal violence. Also the anger was weird because it could come from educated professionals who were forced to live with drunk, degenerate proles which caused them to grow to genuinely hate the working class and the system itself. It sounds like hyperbole but constant, heavy drinking was the main activity that a lot of men did after work, and it was also one of the main ways the government generated internal revenue. Like imagine no consumer culture, just booze, and you will be living and growing up and going to school with the worst people from the lower classes who will be constantly bullying you, getting drunk and smashing shit.

It depends on how you look at it of course, but I also have to note that people living together meant multiple families sharing a single kitchen and bathroom in communal apartments. A lot of people into the 1970s were basically living in wooden barracks in cities that resembled shanty towns. The stereotypical "commie blocs" actually came quite late and they were envisioned as a temporary thing with a short life. Not to shit on it because that was an improvement compared to living in medieval villages, but it's a situation that selected to drop a lot of people into heavy industry as fast as possible.

People didn't eat out to restaurants. Maybe once a year for a wedding or something like that. They cooked at home or ate in canteens at work.

Fun fact about Soviet social traditions and memes you doesn't know.
About 30% of population in 60s lived in so called communal appartments. It's when family has only private room, kitchen, shower and water closet are shared. Electricity pay was shared (single electricity meter). So communal neighbors went absolutely highwire if somebody forgot to turn off light in water closet after deed was done
>my copeks!
It was requiring meme about neighbors going crazy over shared electricity micro waste.

The Soviets did build a giant modern industrial economy though, but it was a weird system because they hit the same walls the U.S. Rust Belt did at the same time. So what you got was big industry, massive numbers of people employed in heavy industry, but with inefficient production methods and unmotivated workers so they had the average productivity of Italy, but good universities (that's true), and a really big absolute # of engineers while surrounded by an ocean of very low productivity agriculture, so there were huge numbers of men doing their mandatory military service being sent to pick potatoes (also teenagers having to do it as part of mandatory UNPAID labor service during the summer) and even then they were barely able to feed themselves. On balance though I think you can sum up socialism as turning into a promise of economic stability, and the appeal of that is obvious, but it also meant socialism stopped being dynamic and failed at transforming the economy at a time when it needed to.

Soviets had giant propaganda machine that could convince that black is white.
Economy?
In 2025 alone China produced more cars that USSR during all it's existence.
Giant economy my ass.

It was huge, I didn't say it was efficient. They produced huge amounts of steel, coal, electrical power, cement, aluminum. Lots of primary sector industrial inputs. They produced a lot more steel than the U.S., at a time they were the largest oil producer in the world. In sheer quantity they also rivaled thre U.S. in heavy industrial equipment, machine tools, stuff like that. But a lot of Soviet production went into more production of the same stuff or the military or was piled up in huge stockpiles that were dumped on the world market in the 1990s when the whole thing collapsed.

You are slurping commie propaganda.
US has 75000 km of expressways network
China 190000 km.
USSR? Don't fall from chairs laughing hear that. 500km in 1989.

Also fun fact.
Most produced and used until end of the USSR Soviet lathe 1A62 was based on German lathe VDF E2 from 30s...

>guaranteed housing
Schwarzwohnen in empty buildings was a common practice because the GDR lacked behind in building apartments and the bureacracy was often fucking young people over in distributing living spaces.
>guaranteed jobs
Like in the Federal German Republic at the time. Unemployment was below 1%, even for low IQ foreigners without any proper skills.
>high patriotism
Sending Russian tanks to crush the protestsnof German workers, suppressing most expressions of German patriotism (if you seriously fell for the plastic-patriot Prussian Uniforms, you are fucking delusional. Most of the East German Tradition was based on communist and Soviet-Russian culture, the Bundeswehr inhibited a much more German Spirit despite wearing American uniforms), being the first German state to follow the cult of shame (Western Germany only followed somewhere around the 90's), shooting their own citzens trying to reunite with their families in the west,... .
They were a puppet state, nothing more. There is a reason their shitty state apparatus immediately collapsed because a guy made a mistake in his speech and border guards didn't massacre their own citizens with machine guns.

Well I mostly see positive things about soviet union after they moved from the communal apartments
I think by the 80s less than 5% of people were living in communal apartments

Bolshevism is like Thanos, inevitable

I think that even though russians could buy or get music from the west through bootlegs or whatever I think it's still important their radio stations didnt broadcast rock, jazz and madonna
Music is one if the main weapons of the 20 and 21 century. It's seen as harmless but it molds one character without no one noticing
In Japan they love western music but they dont understand lyrics which is a huge deal, they dont get infected so easily

Plus it's pretty obvious the entire western media and western school system is run by psychotic jews who are either obsessed about survival or pedophilia, casual sex, etc.
