Why is it that nobody can explain what is hapopening at 2:37. Ceausescu is clearly unnerved by it and the entire thing breaks down.

>that moment when he realizes his power over his people has officially died out
Pure kino, shame more commie dictators didn't get executed like him. The purple witch in East Germany was pure evil and never renounced her ways.

these not that same ne more ;_;

There had been an uprising a couple days before that had been bloodily put down, and that put all of Romania on edge. The crowd for the speech had been bussed in from all over the place and ordered when to clap, when to cheer, when to wave their state-provided signs, and all that. In other words, they were not a crowd of enthusiastic regime supporters. Put two and two together, and you get the crowd suddenly turning on the dictator in unison. This clip is used in group psychology studies for a reason

I love showing this clip to commies on /his/ who claim the GDR was some sort of paradise.

Gorbachev was hated by everyone in Russia during the economic collapse of the 90s. He appeared in this ad to improve his image in the west, knowing that he would probably never regain the respect of his countrymen.

You also didn't get to witness the failure of Tiananmen, which is even more soul-crushing now that commie China is posed to be number 1.

>b-but they're not really c-communist
Strictly speaking, neither was the USSR, or any socialist 'state'. The oppressive apparatus is still there, though.

Sad that it takes so much drama for people to see that their leaders are fucking rodents.

Kim Jong-il also showed it to his people, so they knew what would happen to them once the regime crumbles.

On the bright side I can trigger their government officials with pastas

You'll see the collapse of the Venezuelan government.

Gorbachev was out of a job and needed to pay the rent

Venezuela isn't Marxist-Leninist, It's not on the same level.

>inb4 'hurr it doesn't matter'
Yes it does. Modern Venezuela, however shitty, is not comparable to the regimes set up in Russia/Eastern Europe, and it's an insult to those who overthrew those governments to claim so.

True. I just wanted to cheer you up. You'll never see something like that.

Not anytime soon, it seems like. Having a bunch of Cubans keep their weapons pointed at your army's back must be the secret sauce to maintaining a crumbling dictatorship

He just wanted to be a cowboy like his friends.

You can't even search for the 'Republic of China'?

This has to be a joke, right? How do the CCP explain the existence of Taiwan to their citizens?

Would Gorbachev have been a better leader for post-Soviet Union Russia than Yeltsin?

Easily.

Anyone else saw that commercial with a 25 feet tall Giant Asian Cutie kissing her normal-size white boyfriend on the face?

>mfw this fucker is still alive
