That's not "Soviets style". Voting in Soviet elections only confirmed popular consensus (which was reached through weeks - if not months - of discussions that happened before voting).

Needn't be a government crackdown, they might be being targeted by business owners.

For some reason
Rather odd in a communist country no?

I don't know how to fucking have a relationship, I've had one night stands but getting a date feels like its impossible
