@@GG-hu9dn I agree with you. Ceaușescu was a patriot and wanted our country to thrive but he was also inarguably a hypocrite (owning a bonafide mansion during an age of systematization, having an entire country to “godify” him and Elena, the couple owning numerous fake titles such as chemestry engineers etc. etc.). Sure, he did wonders for Romania’s economy but the way in which he did this were unprecedented (reducing imported goods, forcing Romanian citizens to bare power and food shortages and basically SELLING german and jewish ethnics to their respective countries). He DID lead an oppressive regime and he DID abuse of human rights (freedom of speech and freedom of movement, per se).
