Surviving Communism in Romania | Andy Ionescu | The Freedom Records

Welcome back to The Freedom Records! This week, Andy Ionescu joins us to discuss the rise of the Communist party and Dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu in Romania. Andy lived through decades of socialism and eventually, communism in Romania. He experienced mass indoctrination while serving in the Romanian navy, and saw the 1989 Romanian Revolution take place, firsthand. After the 1989 Revolution, communism was outlawed after 42 painful years of rationing, famine, tyranny, oppression and the death of millions. While 1989 was not a good year for communism, Romania’s Revolution was different from other European countries in a plain but crucial way; while communists no longer were the ruling party, those who had been in the Communist party were still running it.

Andy reflects on the socialist infiltration we are currently experiencing today in America and shares his perspective on the future of America. It’s clear the playbook has not changed all these years, but there is still so much to learn from Andy. You deserve to know the truth about socialism and the real devastation that it brings.

Andy now resides happily in Texas with his family and enjoys writing for his blog in his spare time. “Applied on a large scale in the USSR before the war, the starvation of Romanians and of the other nations in the countries occupied by the soviets in Central and Eastern Europe spoke volumes to the world about the true face of the so called humanism of the Marxist- Leninist doctrine, the ideology that gave birth to communism.” - Radio Romania International
