Some comrades over at Hexbear have organized a donation drive for Palestine and, over the past few weeks, have managed to raise over $1500 for verified Palestinian fundraisers. The fediverse is a good place full of good people.

Well, for one, in eg. East Germany, homosexuality was decriminalised before in the West.
In fascist Italy and Germany, you were sent to a concentration camp.
And women’s rights, and public infrastructure, and access to education etc.
True. That’s what the east reserved for people who critizised the state
There were no concentration camps in the Eastern Block, though, the word you’re looking for is “prison”, which exists in all societies (mostly in the US though).
As for criticising the state, you couldn’t publicly criticise the party leader or the communist model in public without getting in trouble (no jail for just talking though), but as they say “in communism you couldn’t criticise one person (the party leader), in capitalism you can’t criticise your boss or your company”.
I’d like to thank you for proving my point
