Why is their so much Hated for Communists?

So My Grandfather passed away and we got all the files that he owned and everything. So he was an accountant in this company that did business with the Soviets (all through legal means since he wasn't American so it's not ""degenerate""). I found out that in the 60s he used to go on these luxury ships with the corporate owners and executives with the USSR officials they did deals with or something like that. He wrote something along the lines of

>These men are the most good intended polite, intelligent, and classy people I have ever spoken to. It's such a shame we view the Union in such a negative light when there is so much we can learn from them. The very ship we are on makes the Buckingham Palace look like a dumpyard

Obviously an exaggeration but again this is coming from someone who's been a ultra-pro capitalist conservative praising the USSR and it's officials. And yet Sup Forums still buys the McCarthy stuff of "MUH EVIL COMMIES".

...

Stop spamming Sup Forums with your faggot commie shit leftypol

>The small ruling elites from the party use the their abuse of power to go on expensive trips that non of their fellow countrymen can afford to ever go on.

This is obviously just them show boating trying to impress people to secure contracts and what not. Ask any person who lived in the soviet block what it was like to live under communism and they all say it was shit.

So? They let my grandfather and his co-workers on the ship. Are they not deserving of the ship just because they aren't Russians? communists viewed all of mankind as equal as the Russians they ruled under.

>small ussr elite thinks everyone is equal
>thinking life in strict socalist/ communist societies is ideal.

Obviously you are just shilling at this point. If communism was so great and such an amazing system it wouldn't have collapsed.

>because something didn't last forever that means it's a failure
Nice bait.

>These men are the most good intended polite, intelligent, and classy people I have ever spoken to. It's such a shame we view the Union in such a negative light when there is so much we can learn from them. The very ship we are on makes the Buckingham Palace look like a dumpyard
Why would they put the equivalent of an American ambassador on anything but the finest ship with the finest people?

He wasn't an ambassador. It was about some contract deal where the USSR was going to buy products from the company he worked for. Also I re-read the thing it wasn't a fine ship. It was one room on the ship that they basically "pimped out" it was a transport ship they just made one area look really classy for the meeting. Point remains it was very stylish.

Surely those luxury ships were shared with the common peple, right? I can imagine some fat guy from the politburo going out in the street, finding some old woman standing in line for toilet paper and inviting her onto the yacht. I'm sure it happened all the time.

My dad was a common man. He was a proletariet. He was allowed on the ship and the USSR officials treated him with the same respect they treated the CEO

Sage, and get some glasses to look around.

>when you want to protest socialism yet use public roads

get glasses dingdong.

Sure they would, gramps was doing business with them. My point is that in communism, money and power is concentrated at the top, no matter what the insufferable commie faggots will tell you.

They weren't the top, they were just bureaucrats.

A lot of ex-Eastern Bloc residents actually say it was okay. Some in countries that have gone to shit now say it was actually better back then.

...

Yep. We've all been fed a steady diet of propaganda so we never second guess the wisdom of our own system or god forbid imagine what it would be like to not be dependent entirely on the capitalist class for our very existence.

Look up the referendum they had in 1991. The overwhelming majority in every single republic of the Soviet Union voted to keep the Soviet Union as it was.

my grand father was a tank commander and gunner during ww2 and after the war lets say he wasnt very happy with socialism

by 1950 ussr economic structure was in practical terms the same than a heavely regulated "capitalist" country

poltards cant understand that it never was about ideology, but power, same reason why today russia and usa cant get alone

at the same time, the oligarchy is interested in creating the ilusion that there is no choise but them

not all men are equal, nor work the same, nor have the same value
but that doesnt mean we should do nothing with them getting more and more powerful

It worked the first time
