In an exercise of circular reasoning liberals will use the low prices east Germany enterprises were sold for and the rapid closure of factories as evidence of the factories being outdated and worthless and then move on to use the belief that east Germany industry was useless as justification for de-industrialisation and the ridiculous low prices paid.
Do you have a good source to debunk this bullshit?
See the other reply to this post, Stasis State or Socialist Paradise was my primary source. It has several other english books in the bibliography, but most of their citations are in German.
Also, another related bit on your liberal circular reasoning:
This WaPo article on the NATO Yugoslavia bombings
They literally spend the whole article saying that NATO was destroying public industry and civilian infrastructure, then conclude with “Milosovec and the Yugoslavian authoritarians will use this as an excuse for why their industry is in shambles, but it was actually ruined before, trust us”
Milosevic has avoided serious economic reform and has kept large sectors of the economy under the control of his Socialist Party cronies. Living standards have declined steadily over this period, but the government has managed to blame the West for many of its own economic blunders.
OMG that WaPo quote is just “Why are you hitting yourself?” with more words.
