    Oh god, there's a post in the Cold War forum about a woman who survived a gulag over there. Terrifying... :( It's amazing she's alive...

    Wow! Scary stuff. It's terrifying to think that this sh!t's still going on. If you look at the expressions on people's faces in that video it's a mix of fear, terror, repression, anxiety, and, among the politburo, boredom.

    I don't know about you, but the people in that video look a lot happier than people over here.

    Yeah, i hate not having a tyrannical despot ruling us. Having democracy, freedom of speech and basic human rights is pretty over rated. :P

    The way we run democracy here isn't much to be happy about.

    That's because they're either forced to or they don't know any better. Maybe the latter are, in a way, better off living in a bubble and knowing nothing else and not realising they're being had, or that they're barely surviving, but... I'd still prefer to live here, horrifically oppressive and all as it is. :)

    Have a bit perspective and you'd be very happy with it:
