    Lol I'm not bullshitting. Poverty. Restrictions on freedom of expression that make Germany's current problems in that department look like nothing. Didn't even have enough access to toilet paper at times, and we're not talking about a pandemic or anything like that.

    Ya know, there's a saying in Russia: "the younger is the blogger, the harsher was their life in USSR", I think the same may go for DDR as well
