spent the weekend with my granddad, he is 85 now and got married at 25

he started the family in a poor, socialist country, in a depth of the cold war, with no real career prospects or financial security

average 25 year old men these days are 10x better off and don’t even consider starting families

feels backwards 

Curious: what does he think about communism?

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

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.

no sane person has anything good to say about communism here in central europe

This is the most random thing I’m gonna be asking older people now, especially in church . 🤓

i bet he loves it and he also was a heavy advocate of abortion and the lgbqtxyz movementen when he was 25 :P
