Why would the CIA back a revolution demanding minimum wage and the right to unionise?

To destabilise the soviet union of course. They can still take away those rights later, like they did after the collapse of the soviet union.

If the state had agreed to the students’ demands for minimum wage and the right to strike, there wouldn’t have been any instability. Suppressing revolutions with tanks doesn’t make society more stable. Sounds like the USSR sucked just as bad as the USA if they fell for that easy bait.

Ad hominem and appeal to authority at the same time. Impressive.

Tankies don’t really enjoy communists. It’s not honest dialogue to mix them up with each other
