      I doubt he even knows what that means. These NAFO dorks probably pick a socialist country at random to claim they were "born in" and were heavily oppressed by the evil commies in. They don't even check the wikipedia articles on them most likely, just google maps to find locations. At this point I'm more convinced that anyone who claims to have escaped "communist oppression" on the internet is just lying about it, because they're used to talking to liberals who will believe anyone who claims to have been from a place as being an expert on that place by default.

        You are convinced correct. Hell i live in Poland and the amount of martyrology grows the more the more PRL is distant in past. And every single time i heard that and i asked for details it came up that it was either completely made up or some incredibly insignificant event like sitting in milita post for an hour before getting lectured on martial law or a day of jail and fine for vandalism.

          It's usually pretty easy to spot too, they claim to have "escaped communism" but then speak like a 14 year old American teenager, I find it unlikely that a 50+ year old victim of the Evil Soviet Gulags in the 1980s would talk like that. At least the ones who claim their parent or grandparent "escaped communism" are slightly more believable, though it's pretty unlikely they're giving an accurate story about what really happened to their grandparent's egg monopoly.
