I also checked out the Romanian dictator he mentioned. This is... uh... freaking horrible.

What the fuck kind of "Communist Party" governed Romania???

      I didn't find much information on marxists.org either. Maybe there are other sources.

      Most communists understandably tend to have a very negative opinion of Ceaușescu and consider him to be among the worst socialist leaders of the Eastern bloc. Despite this, a 2014 poll showed that:

      66 percent of Romanians would vote for communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu (1918-1989) if he ran in the upcoming presidential elections in November

      The survey highlights that 69 percent of citizens believe that they lived better during communism

      A 2018 study by polling institute Isogep showed that Nicolae Ceaușescu remains the most popular Romanian president. 64.3% had a good opinion of Ceaușescu, followed by current president Klaus Iohannis with 50.7%, the only other president with an approval rate over 50%.
