Largely yes, but that is because the counterproductive economic policies of the communists there kept the people poor (and they therefore have not succumbed to the decadence of the West), while insisting on strict discipline and regimentation in the way that your communists do not. This also means that 'refugees' looking for safetymonah are not interested in countries like Poland.

As their traditional culture continues to break down though, while legal pressures from the other Evil Empire (the EU) pile up, it's going to get worse and worse though, until they end up being just another one of the societies dedicated to Consooming.
