For a socialist/communist country? Pretty good standard of living. Except the whole fucking wall and Stasi listening to everything you say on the phone. My dad went there for a few years after his university to get practical experience in mechanical engineering and said that compared to socialist Poland it was way better.
In general? Bad, as with most soviet states it was running on foreign loans to sustain itself and plenty of industrial equipment/machinery was taken as "reparations" to USSR.
Even Yugoslavia which was very much opposed to the Soviet Union had to run on loans but after Tito's death it quickly fell apart so most people from ex-Yugo that think fondly of their country don't realise that the system fell before they started to get actual financial problems

im not a nationalist tho

>Are you going to go my north Indian indoor Germanic peoples?! Tired of living as Paypigs, for lazy swimming, Antanz Tunisians?! Thanks to your golden hair, were you only allowed to march into Susis Punaniland on New Year's Eve in Cologne?! Do you know how to interpret the grown earlobes of the pandemic patriciate?! Then flow out of your incel cellars!!! Resist!!! Contact info in the thumbnail!!!

Never gonna make it

West Berlin was actually kinda poor and rather inconvenient to live. It was a pain in the ass to travel between west Berlin and the rest of west Germany because there were few designated routes and cars could only stop on several rest stops.

East Berlin unironically has more soul

Why plannification doesnt work ?

why soviets starved but had a performant weapon/military/space industrial complex ?

Could a collectivization and a more strategic management of the soils and agricultural exploitation help europe facing the future hyper competitive food market ? (with global warming and chinks wanting to eat real food)

The GDR wasn't a drug cartel capitalist state.

>Why Soviets starved but had a performant weapon/military/space industrial complex?
Because they prioritized the weapon/military/space industrial complex over feeding their citizens, although Soviet citizens themselves were pretty well-feed, it was only in the Stalin days that there were food shortages. When people say the Soviets "starved" past the 1950's what they really mean is that the Soviets didn't have a very varied diet.

>Could a collectivization and a more strategic management of the soils and agricultural exploitation help Europe facing the future hyper competitive food market
Depends who's doing the management. Our current European leaders have proven themselves to be incompetent buffoons, choosing votes and "feel good" policies over what Europe really needs

>When people say the Soviets "starved" past the 1950's what they really mean is that the Soviets didn't have a very varied diet.
I thought it was just zoomer Zig Forumsyps and neoliberal think-tanks doing maymays?

>When people say the Soviets "starved" past the 1950's what they really mean is that the Soviets didn't have a very varied diet.

>dear tavarishch, maybe you can't eat meat, but at least you can replace it with potatoes!

Oh no the horror

Exactly. There was food but there weren't a lot of food options

But I don't think anyone seriously claims there was starvation in the USSR, especially in the 70s/80s, people only say this country had very low quality of life, especially compared to its political aspirations

Grim

Come to the west my friend. We'll educate you well and tell you all about your country

I work at a grocery store and this honestly isn't to far off from how it looks right now due to covid. Also that's far more realistic to what actually gets bought as a product of massively overstocking shelves is we throw away a lot of shit. I work in meat and I'd voucher not even half the shit ever gets bought and we fill 7 huge garbage cans with the bad meat every week and it goes off the incinerator.

I've never heard it from westerners desu

As I said, I meant these post-Stalin times. Holodomor is another thing.

last famine in the USSR was 1946 or 47 I think
they did ensure the most basic needs, but there was no range to select from since everything was centrally planned, even bananas were a rarity I think

Everyone in the States thinks communists had a daily caloric intake of 200 and experienced negative population growth under communism. We are very stupid, but whatever keeps us out of socialism I guess

>can't trade with half the planet due to cold war and american/nato embargoes

>WAAAAH I WANT MY HECKIN MEATERINO

So ungrateful. But I'd expect nothing less from a Pole.
