I spent a month in Romania learning more about the history of this fascinating country. One thing I became particularly interested in was the more recent history of socialism and communism in the country. It’s important to note that throughout the life of Nicolae Ceausescu, the words “communism” and “socialism” were used pretty much interchangeably, and that’s because no matter what idealists want to admit, they’re the fruit of the same poisonous tree. https://www.activistpost.com/2023/07/it-never-benefits-the-people-the-dark-history-of-socialism-and-communism-in-romania.html
