It was a bad thing.
Not only because of the things REEEEvolution said. Child prostitution, bread lines (which came AFTER the fall), wars and a fall of life expectency, but I live in Western Europe and the dismantling of the Soviet Union also triggered the dismantling of social democracy and rise of both fascism and rainbow capitalism in my own country and I sometimes don’t know which one to be more disgusted by.
Well fascism of course, but like religious people I consider their ideas to be so outdated that I’m often more amused and amazed by their stupidity and backwardness than I am frustrated by them during an age where China currently is undeniably the largest superpower in the world.

Guess your country is in america lol, here in Europe we know our history.
@folaht@lemmy.ml quite literally stated “but I live in Western Europe.”
You’re a big fan of modern Russia then.
Neither dictatorship pleases me.
But I guess you’re onboard, you all seems to like a strong dictator like Mao or Stalin.
OK, so you’re not a fan of what the fall of the USSR led to. I guess you’re just a big fan of the mass poverty it caused?
