Remember that the Romanians, Bulgarians and the Hungarians fought on the side of the fascists, this countries had no history of "western democracy", you know the sort we all love where the rich control the political process, and any one with several million dollars can be president.
But although the Soviet armies did not bring in utopia they did bring advances for a lot of people, free education for all, free health care, full employment, housing for everyone.
Now that period is over and people are free to go without health care, to be unemployed, to fight in Imperialist wars, and free to sleep under bridges when homeless.
In Poland there is now twice as many people in prison as under communism and 5 millions Poles have had to leave the country to find work.
