liberals when someone from west germany has a nuanced view of the gdr: how dare you romanticize this brutal dictatorship!! go listen to someone from east germany who actually lived through this horrible authoritarian regime!!!
liberals when two thirds of east germans actually feel nostalgic towards the gdr and one fourth of east germans feel like their life got worse after the fall of the berlin wall: those backwards east germans are still brainwashed into authoritarianism, we should just rebuild the wall if they like it so much, they were simply not made for democratic participation
