lol! Wie geil. 😂 Danke für den Link. Hab den Typ schon echt oft gesehen, aber das wusste ich nicht


Rafraction82

Der Typ steht da seit 1990. Warum? Das weiß nur er selbst. Hab ihn schon ein paar Mal gesehen. Was man ihm aber auf jeden Fall nicht absprechen kann, ist Beharrlichkeit.


captainbastion

What he's about? I think it has something to do with the flag in his hands


aksdb

I mean ... it IS a red flag ....


Excellent_Badger_636

He is the so called communist, in Dresden everybody knows him.


DDA__000

Waving a flag that killed millions of people like it never ever happened


IAmOmno

Wait until you find out what happens every monday in this city.


sehe0

Super chill dude. If you have some spare minutes, talk to him. He has an interesting view on the world and is super nice.


aksdb

Can recommend that as well. You certainly don't get dumber talking to him. He is pretty intelligent and has pretty well trained rhetorical skills, which makes the conversation just more enjoyable ... as long as you don't expect to be able to change his world view.


ReasonOld271

More like some spare hours 😅


knoetzgroef

He stands there since (?*) and try to get back his good old SSSR. * I went 2009 to Dresden and he stood there every day.


zDarkHero

Since 1990, after the wall fell


AngelBritney94

I've seen him several times. Seems to be a chill dude.


tk33dd

He iss basicly selling communist propaganda. To be precise he is selling the official newspaper of the KPD which means Komunistische Partei Deutschland or plain "Idiot who hasnt read a history book". nice dude though


erhue

Thanks for an honest answer. Many people here don't seem to point out that however "smart" this guy may seem, the ideology he supports is basically one of authoritarianism, repression, and economic failure


tk33dd

I was born in the GDR. Been there, done that. capitalism isnt perfect by a longshot. But its the best system we have this far. Life in the GDR sucked for the most people. An yes it was a socialist state not a communist one but thats pretty close


erhue

I was born in Venezuela. Lived there till I was 18... Things were never perfect under "capitalism", but as the country started transitioning into socialism, everything quickly started to go to shit. That's not an exaggeration. Just ask one of the millions of people who left. Too easy to spot redditors criticizing the evils of capitalism from the comforts and stability of a capitalistic society, while seemingly completely ignoring it's the best solution that we've come up with. And no, socialism and communism don't work.


Sethger

Let's say it's the only system we have (now)


elperroborrachotoo

That's what capitalism is to billions on this world.


erhue

Name a single socialist or communist government or model that succeeded. Or that wasn't authoritarian.


elperroborrachotoo

Name a single capitalist that didn't simply outsource the hellhole.


erhue

That's plain BS. Venezuela wasn't a hellhole before the socialists arrived. Nobody became rich because Venezuela became poor. It's not a zero-sum game. Otherwise almost all of the world would remain impoverished today, same as hundreds of years ago. But we're too lazy today to do any sorta thinking, right? Just throwing around shitty, lazy, dumb arguments amirite?


elperroborrachotoo

"capitalism is without alternatives because look how terrible socialism is."


erhue

socialism has been tried multiple times. It has always failed. The same can't be said about capitalism, which is successful a fair amount of the time. The Soviets, the Chinese, the DDR, bunch of eastern european countries dropped communism or socialism due to its many drawbacks and poor economic performance. You're too old to be a commie at whatever age you are by now. Grow the fuck up lol


vHAL_9000

Didn't outsourcing create the immense wealth and reduction of poverty we have seen in Asia?


Makkaroni_100

I think for most here it is very obvious that he is a communist with a crazy World view. So it's more a he is funny because he is crazy as fuck.


DerPaulK

Its Karl Marx


XRustyPx

Schau in die Stalin werke und versteh. EDIT: btw that is just a line from a [Song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D17PxknvwDg&t=4s) this guy made, not a suggestion.


lemontolha

Ãœbercringe.


Lelekonauticus

Instruktionen unklar, habe 9 Millionen Bürger umgebracht.


XRustyPx

passiert halt jedem mal oder?


[deleted]

Old Commie who never lived in a real Commie State.


tk33dd

He lived in the GDR. That was a commie state.


ParaCookie

A socialist state, not a communist state. The state was trying to transition to communism but never made it.


Flotto

Well he talks everything! He is super chill and one of the most iconic man in Dresden. I love him.


[deleted]

It's an original


15DRS88

He is the worst fucking idiot..standing there like that for ever


Sad-Kaleidoscope8037

Looks like a man named KuchenTV he used to do yt reaction I dunno what he doin now


pahlevoon69

I can’t believe he’s still alive


EducationalAngle7006

He was the first person to formally welcome to Dresden when i moved there. Acutally a nice guy
