Meanwhile a zoomer is working three jobs and can't afford something that looks ten times shittier than this.

People with MY job in the 79s 80s 90s owned BIG houses.
Now I can barely afford an apartment that's practically the size of that whole living room.

that museum was very cool when i went about 10 years ago. someone fainted inside for some reason which was awkward. probably a roastie refusing necessary calories or water

>>541737147
You can have that apartment if you work 7 days a week.
In East Germany you were not paid if you didn't meet production quotas and they increased them every year which is why there was a huge strike in the 50s. The regime responded by creating a hyper vigilant surveillance state that jailed 300,000+ uppity workers and just forced them to do labor everyday.

So get working anon I want to see 10hr days, 7 days a week or no weekly salary

What is there to complain about this system? It's an ethnostate where you are taken care of cradle to grave. Where work is meaningful and and guaranteed. You're mad because you don't have burgers and meaningless protests dressed like a frog?

>>541737147
Reminder that in the DDR and every other communist utopia and glorious worker's paradise, they still had to go to work to make money needed to buy things and pay rent.
Being unemployed was a serious crime called "Social Parasitism." There were no NEETs in the DDR because anyone who didn't work would get sent to the gulag.
You also didn't just get some nice comfy apartment like the one in OP for free. The free housing was absolutely shit tier communal housing even worse than public housing projects in capitalist countries. To get a nice apartment like the one in OP, you had to put your name on a waiting list for years (and probably need the right connections to ever get one). Then when there was one available to you, you had to pay expensive rent to live there. The only real difference was that your landlord was the State instead of some jew slumlord.
Also, to be able to afford that nice apartment, you would need to have one of the better jobs that was in a higher pay band. Yes, they had income inequality in the glorious DDR, and someone like a directorate executive or academic official in the top pay band would earn 10x as a manual laborer in the minimum wage pay band.

Except nobody's monitoring your cellphone until something comes up that calls for investigation. Then there's the legal protections of the fourth amendment. This is why they've been able to operate flock for nine years without the general population flipping out. Nobody's tracking anyone that doesn't come up as a suspect in a crime. Even when they do try to go after someone for wrongthink they have to find workarounds in order to punish them and when the people see that it creates controversy. It's incomparable except for hyperbolic political shills making the association.

>>541743200
Not as a matter of state policy. And you have rights, is my point. It's not even close to the same as a police agency with a doctrine to round up any and all dissenters. The overwhelming majority of investigations into people's activity on their cell phones are for major crimes like arson and murder. The neo nazi that gets harassed still has to do something to alert the state he is a neo nazi. That's when they start looking for workarounds. Imagine this technology in the hands of the stasi. No way they'd have it for nine years without using it to lock up every dissenter.

That is a 70's living room. The only downside is the TV is smaller than an American living room from that era. Very cozy for a small house or apartment.
>>

that is what was happening in eastern germany, except in much smaller scale than today in western "democracy"

That's hardly a typical apartment. The typical GDR apartment would have had a much tighter living room with more haphazardly thrown together furniture and more cluttered walls.

Yeah, no. That's 3 part-time jobs that are lucky to hit 60k a year working 60 hour weeks. Even then, the only places paying 19/hr , especially for part-time work, are in high population density areas with exorbitant costs of living.

Used to work in upholstery back in the day. Had some older polish woman come in wanting a chair worked on, clearly some ’70s piece brought over. Opened it up and the damn thing was just full of animal hair. The smell was fucking brutal.
