weird, I'm constantly told by Americans that communism is good just hasn't been done right. Yet, anyone I ask who has lived through it seems to not like it. I'm sure they are wrong, though.

there are certainly people who liked it: 1) nostalgia fetishists ("life was simpler back then") — they basically wouldn't care if it was the other way around, they just dwell on their past 2) system beneficiaries — people who got ahead by stomping on others or bootlicking 3) lazy asses — happiest when nobody capable could get ahead 4) ideologists — they just don't care about anything besides their opinion being right no matter how many people die or suffer there're still many ex-communists in government (plus literally communist party used to get into parliament until recently)
