      The nostalgia for communism in EE is of the same type that drives the conflict with Ukraine today over western influence..i.e..that means "the good old days when we were strong, and the west wasn't corrupting our kids with gender propaganda". It is not because of ideological commitment to communism mostly, but a mix of missing the good social isntitutions and a solid dose of social conservatism
