Crimea truth

These posts about Crimea and Ukraine are disturbing on many levels.  Primarily,  because so many with no understanding of what is actually going on post as if they have the inside track on what is happening, and sanctify the vote as if it was legitimate.  My family came from the communist block and lived first hand the evils of communism, socialism, Marxism...call it what you will, it all ends up the same.  The masses suffer, and they suffer mightily.  Yet some embrace progressivism as it if is their long lost lover (it is the root of communism).  You embrace every single socialist, progressive, liberal concept Obama comes up with, yet scream you don’t want anyone to call you a communist – all those roads lead to the same destination and IT HAS NEVER WORKED, CAUSING THE LIVES OF MANY INNOCENT PEOPLE..    

 If anyone posts the actual truth of this matter, they are attacked here with a vengeance worthy of the KGB, Russian Army, the Secret Police...pick your poison; they are all cut from the same cloth; they squelch the masses any way they can – through fear, rationing of everything from food to healthcare (sound familiar – ever hear of Obamacare) intimidation, starvation.  Makes no difference to a communist.

 Before the Soviet Union fell, we stood in line for EVERYTHING...things as basic what you take for granted daily, i.e., milk, bread, toilet paper, soap, meat, any kind of food for God’s sake.  Whenever it sold out, that was it.  There was NEVER enough of anything...all the while the political elite got whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted it.  You were told what to do, how to do it, IF you could it, whatever “it” was.   Those commoners that sang the glories and benefits of communism suffered right along with the rest of us, and starved right along with the rest of us, too.  Their communist utopia looked exactly like our hell; and yet, some still would not wake up to what was happening to their own families under communist rule.

 For years, Russia has manipulated the press (same as Obama), puts out ONLY what they want and hides the truth from the public (same as Obama), lies about whatever puts them in a bad light (same as Obama), shuts down the internet and social sites allowing only what Russia wants to get through (what Obama wants to do).  Have none of you figured out why Obama gave away the right to control the internet, an American invention, perfected in American, run by an American nonprofit to allow ALL who wanted to post the ability to do so, regardless of their country or political affiliation.  Take off your blinders.

 The bottom line, Russia invaded a sovereign country, Ukraine, for the sole purpose of controlling them through the annexation of Crimea.  Russia now controls them lock, stock, and barrel...free and legal vote my foot.  You control the fuel and food, you now control the masses.   You do not have a fair vote at the end of a rifle, which is exactly what happened whether you want to believe it or not. 

 My family lived the horrors of communism, getting a first-hand education...what’s your education to post such absurd, baseline statements?
