Experience Tumblr Like Never Before
When the boys in my class insist that communism wasn't that bad, so I have to hold back the urge to pull out my country's news so they can watch it relapse back into communism barely 35 years after defeating it. How people's rights are stripped away, how the government tries to silence them. How the beginning of the revolution looks like, how the anger of a nation looks. So they can see the horrors of watching the police side with who puts money in their pockets, and how the good are painted as bad and the bad as good. But that would be too political for class, and I'd get kicked out, so I just have to sit and hold back the words stuck in my throat and look at them with disgust being fully aware that their east european ass would rather close it's eyes at the pain of another country.
