The revised legislation introduces prison sentences of up to five years for anyone who “establishes, supports or promotes Nazi, communist, or other movements which demonstrably aim to suppress human rights and freedoms or incite racial, ethnic, national, religious or class-based hatred.”

Hahaha hating billionaires is now equivalent to racism.

Being part of the Eastern bloc really did a number on some people. Having grown up in one of those countries, it's wild how little idea the anti-communists there have about how their country used to work or even what communism or socialism are. For many that I know, communism is when you can't buy The Beatles albums. The vanguard parties dropped the ball educting people intentionally or unintentionally.
