Europe used to be so much more beautiful back in the late 20th century.

Cold War 2 couldn't come sooner.

i heard belarus and estonia were actually really good places to live during communism

even by western democracy standards

something about how moscow sorta forgot about them, and didn't pay super close attention. so the local governments were able to bring in some western stuff. like estonians got western movies and tv programs as early as the 60s.

any history nerds wanna give me some info on this?

I can give you some info as an oldfag Lithuanian who still remembers soviet occupation, it was not the governments but speculants, who were basically people who had permits to leave USSR, because they participated in either international competitions or had friends in real high places in the government and they basically bulk bought everything western like jeans, cigarettes, magazines and even electronic appliances(like radios, as soviet regime basically sold radios with fucked up receivers, so you couldn't listen to any foreign radio shows and couldn't know what the fuck is happening outside of soviet union) and during the Gorbachev era perestroika years the Communist regime basically didn't give a fuck anymore and it was much easier to get outside of the USSR, so speculating was on the rise, and I remember how my father even bought one of the first mercedes cars in Lithuania as he was a high ranking officer and you literally couldn't drive it or leave it outside because there were masses of people just wanting to look at it for hours. So yeah, I hope that I helped to shed some light on how were things back then.

see i had also read that lithuania was heavily monitored. that because you guys held out longer then belarus or estonia, that it was still really harsh under soviet rule until perestroika like you said.

Lithuanian-born Russki here. My mom was a student during the last decade of the USSR, and she told me that she was basically the supplier of material goods requests for her friends. She'd visit my grandparents during her time off school, and take the opportunity to go to Poland, which apparently had a large availability of second-hand and new Western clothes, in addition to Polish tights which were coveted.

My dad was an engineer, but also did illegal currency exchange in front of train stations on the side, as well as hauling furs and clothes and shit with his friends from India and China (also not legally) for resale through the 70s and 80s.

what's crazy about this to me is that your dad bought a mercedes he couldn't ever use because it would've attracted too much attention, plus i imagine it probably would have been illegal to own something like that, just to own it.

was his plan to sell it when the regime fell? was it basically the expectation of people that the regime would eventually fall?

Czech here, not SSSR but we were a communist country 1948-1989 and a USSR puppet from 1968 onwards. You could easily purchase Western clothing, furniture etc. in designated shops called ''Tuzex''. The problem was the government created a separate currency for these shops (''bony''), with the conversion rate being extremely unfavorable.


Btw, 1968 (aka the prague spring, until it went to shit after the soviet invasion) was arguably the most /fa/ period a country could possibly go through. Socialism with a human face, as Alexander Dubcek called it, a time of brief yet full blown freedom, while still retaining the effay aspexts of Eastern Eurioean communism. I'll try to find some photos, I swear there wasn't a single non-effay person.

Yeah im sure it was great you could either be conscripted to fight in Afghanistan or put on a train to Siberia. That's if your family managed to survive political purges and man made famines.

But yeah I really wish my grandfather didnt leave his country after the war so that I could use Cyrillic letters bc they look so cool right?

I have a pair of Dinamo hi-tops in white, and a pair in all-black top-grain coming next week. I've had the whites for about 6 months and absolutely love them.
