and of course socialism is never civilized, just look at the life in the eastern block countries during the cold war, or cuba.
what is/was it like in those places?

after the commies took over a city, it started with executions, followed with land and property confiscation, then jamming families in small city flats that were made by partitioning larger flats from the previous era. only communist party members could be employed as intellectuals (teachers, journalists, engineers, etc). the old, displaced intellectuals were forced in rural areas to do farm work. mandatory 'work actions' (slave labour) to build public infrastructure. mandatory public schools, with indoctrination. suppression of religion. prison camps for political prisoners. the works.

Peasants worked with the Bolsheviks because they wanted change and had little opportunity under the Tsar. Little did they know most of the commissars were Jews (it wasn't just Trotsky) and were foreign to Russia. The old Bolsheviks would then go unto execute many of the Peasants and live as kings like the Tsar totally in opposition to what the glutonous "never worked in my life" Marx preached. That the lower class would rise to lead. Didn't happen like that. It was just a revenge plot against Orthodoxy and everything Russian.

Indeed, I concur. Also, there was ABSOLUTELY NOTHING socialist about that regime. Socialism exists only in capitalist economies, not in communist ones.
