Stag/bachelor parties is what I've heard as a bad thing about prague. Otherwise I guess its just the typical hollowing out of a place and its culture under late capitalism? It's happening in Dublin and other cities in Europe.

Yeah, it is just Prague seems to be way ahead of the curve. It isn�t just the historic center at this point but it has metastasized across the entire city.

I am rather surprised with the numbers from Poland, Hungary, Czechia and Lithuania for real. thought be would be far more rejection (maybe there is more now? idk)

Russia there is weird, but things were better there in 2009 too, so the disillusionment hasn't happened in full yet. would it be fair to consider if responders were being pution-cautious too? (by saying things were better under communism they would be criticizing the current govt)

Poland did pretty well from Germany selling out their own labor to outsource to them (similar to China), but maybe the gains were uneven across the population?

I checked out Top City Homo's (absolute top shelf username there) posting about khruschie's economic planning a bit and yeah, motherfucker pulled an almost pre-gorbachev in terms of scale and damage to socialism pursuing a "dynamization" strategy

from what I gathered so far, he had an almost fully correct diagnosis of the problems of planning under Stalin (stuff like hoarding, misallocation, time-critical deviancies, misattribution - all of that is legit as consequence of planning with limited technology) but he used Lenin to defend a Bukharin-like reorganization under local, decentralized planning entities. the gall, the nerve

(Lenin famously strongly disliked the NEP and was basically accepting of it due to the extreme post-civil war circumstances)
