The Reality of Socialism: Estonia | Mini-Documentary
The Wall St. Journal’s Mary O’Grady, along with authors Matthew Mitchell and Peter Boettke, explore the reality of Soviet socialism in Estonia.
After waves of successive invasions from East and West, the small and fledgling country on the Baltic Sea was dragooned into the Soviet Union in 1940. There its people were trapped in brutal, often tragic conditions for five decades.
Eventually, following a mostly-peaceful revolution, Estonians regained their freedom and reformed their nation quickly to become one of the freest nations on earth.
This video is part of a new multimedia project, The Realities of Socialism, by the Fraser Institute in Canada, the Institute of Economic Affairs in the UK, the Institute of Public Affairs in Australia and the Fund for American Studies in the U.S.

propaganda shorts are a new level of cringe
It was everywhere, not only in Estonia, or you can be just killed at place if you was too dangerous.
This is complete BS, where do they get their info from? I am a expert on the subject, they do not even list one source to verify anything.
