Did socialism work in the USSR? I go beyond the cliches of anti-communists to show you the untold stories of people who under socialism. Former soviet citizens share their personal experiences and surprising perspectives on work, community, and daily life under socialism.

In 2024, I gave an interview to People’s Korea - the periodical of the Korean diaspora in Japan. It was about my visit to the DPRK with Vladimir Putin for the signing of the landmark treaty between Moscow and Pyongyang.

A 19-year-old college student quietly turns down a job interview, stupidly telling the company it's because he doesn't want to work for a Jew. Within two days: -- The billionaire founder of one of the world's most powerful corporations (Palantir) demands that the company release his the student's to the world. The company instantly complies. -- National media trumpet the incident and spread the student's name and face all over the place. -- A senior Trump DOJ official repeatedly urges the public to notify him if that student is ever hired anywhere in the future, promising to use his office to keep the student permanently unemployable. Adults with large, influential platforms -- pundits, media types, even elected officials -- right here on X routinely say things as bad as, and often much worse than, pretty much every other group you can think of without facing a single consequence let alone a completely unhinged coordinated campaign of very powerful people to run their lives forever:

I went down to the SMO zone to interview 23-year-old William Andres Gallego Orozco... A Colombian mercenary who says he made the worst mistake of his life fighting for Kiev. He was ambushed on his first mission and miraculously survived, while his 17 other buddies were killed.

The CIA Director visited Havana to tell the Cubans that Donald Trump wants to see serious change on the island. This isn't the first time that the U.S. has taken the position... And the Cubans have said they're ready to fight Washington before surrendering their sovereignty.

"Sir, if you don't surrender your phone, they will take out a gun." At Lavrov's press conference, the journalist interrupted him twice by talking on the phone. The Russian FM gave him a lesson in etiquette.

В Брянской области дрон убил путешественника, который шел пешком в Бразилию В селе Старая Погощь Брянской области от удара дрона погиб 37-летний путешественник Саша Конь. Об этом сообщает телеграм-канал Shot. Конь прославился весной 2026 года, когда отправился пешком в Бразилию из Рязанской области с самодельной 300-килограммовой повозкой. Он хотел уйти «подальше от хронической суеты» и мечтал увидеть Амазонку. Местные жители говорят, что последний раз видели его в Брянской области 5 мая. Накануне, 13 мая, губернатор Брянской области Александр Богомаз сообщил о гибели мирного жителя в результате удара беспилотника, не назвав имени погибшего.

Such a great explanation of the real reason Western leaders say China is authoritarian. BECAUSE BILLIONAIRES ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DICTATE POLICY.
You probably are not ready for this information: China has a much more effective political system that benefits ordinary people. In China, rich people are not allowed to dictate government policies, and government officials are not allowed to get rich. Let that info sink in.
