Send me to the Gulag: https://freedomalternative.com/english/announcements/send-me-to-the-gulag-fund-the-2022-central-asia-tour/ If you lose your passport here, you are effectively a stateless person. There are no embassies or consulates, there is no one to complain to. Because this place doesn't exist. If you are a local with some sense, you have at least one more passport (preferably two). If you have enough sense, you left this place a long time ago - like half of the population already did. If you're too young to have ever been to the Soviet Union, a visit here may show you some things - such as state-of-the-art recently-renovated and very well maintained Soviet monuments, hammers and sickles everywhere (including on the so-called national flag), Lada and Moskvich Militsiya cars, a Supreme Soviet that is still called like that today and plenty of non-Russians LARPing as Russians... this place has them all. Oh, and just like the USSR,... no picture! Even touristy areas are subjected to draconian videotaping and photography restrictions. This place LARPs as a country and it's more or less owned by a corporation called SHERRIFF. Everything is Sheriff - the local phone company, all of the supermarkets worth entering into, all currency exchanges, even the local football squad. This season, European Champions - Real Madrid - lost four times the whole season: against Chelsea, Manchester City, Paris Saint Germain and... Sheriff Tiraspol. What's not owned by Sheriff, looks like the 1980s USSR. Empty stores, sub-standard merch (if there is any), or has already gone bankrupt. Welcome to the Priednestrovian Moldovan Republic!

Send me to the Gulag - https://freedomalternative.com/gulag/ Everyone who has lived in post-communist Intermarium knows there is a faction of people who express genuine nostalgia for the totalitarian era that ended somewhere between 1988 and 1991 (depending on the country). When it comes to large numbers, having a few people believing something weird or outright false is to be expected. But the so-called nostalgia for communism stands out because the segments of the populations are not negligible. Up until about 5 years ago, in some countries that segment was large enough to influence or even decide the outcome of national elections. Also, nostalgia for the Marxist-Leninist era is sometimes present even within individuals who themselves broke the law in order to escape the regime. I've met a few of those in the United States, Israel, Sweden or the Netherlands. Individuals born and raised in the Soviet Union or in a Warsaw Pact country who broke the law in order to emigrate and get political asylum and who for some reason manifest nostalgia for the thing they've ran away from decades after that thing doesn't even exist anymore (which means that if their nostalgia is for the home country, that could be satisfied by simply moving back). Now admittedly, some did just that and were happy with the choice. But the discussion is about those who didn't, or did and are not happy. Who are the nostalgics? Why do they still exist? And what about those who didn't live in those times? Let's explore!
