Of course millions loved him. After having regular communism, and when national tensions emerged from economic struggle, he was the new prophet of National(istic) Socialism.

For people who spent whole their lives under communism, of course rebranded socialism worked perfectly.

Those who understood the inherent problems with Marxist ideologies - started trying with their politics, in parallel with his.

It took 10 years to win the majority, besides having protests every, single, year.

  • no royalist nonsense
  • pro EU
  • not that much against NATO
  • fueled by stolen elections
