Well, rafalski, thanks for the effort. While your text does not make your points any stronger either, I do agree on the freedom thing (at least something).
I grew up, probably, in the same kind of communism you did, but somehow I did not acquire the same hatred towards it you did. I was that same teenager you talked about. But still, I didn't give up.
I don't blame you for that, although, as romantic as it may seem, giving up is easy. Opportunism, in my view is the biggest enemy of that same freedom you are talking about. Capitalism just found a perfect way to tap into that, while personal responsibility towards the community and your surroundings is virtually zero. I know I am a lone voice in the big noise of profits to be made, but still, I prefer that always over "going with the flow" because it is comfortable at the moment.
The struggle for freedom NEVER ENDS, my friend.
