    You would’ve had the image of leftists destroyed no matter what, the faults of USSR is ever present and has even been maximised to the point of hilarity where it is compared with the Nazis, even if false or inaccurate or misrepresented

    You could see the victories of socialism and communism within USSR and read and learn about it, but also critique the system that Stalin created alongside it which allowed repression, where it lead to millions dying in Ukraine and millions to suffer in prison, but these have been exaggerated as part of western doctrine to deface communism as much as possible, so never take it at face value

    It’s extremely unfortunate that communism was cursed as not only the biggest enemy of the developed world as it was just only developing, but also had the misfortune to be lead by a leader who had little regard for democracy or democratic values in politics and which lead to later on revisionism, inefficiencies and the collapse.











  • The cultural genocide that china is doing to these people seem to be the same as those that turkey does in afrin and Kurdistan taking apart the Kurdish groups with internal opposition and separating their experiences and renaming them as Turkish and forcing specific things onto these groups acting as if it is in good will and that is why autonomy is important for regions of high diversity and should be replicated in Bulgaria, Romania, China, Sweden, Finland and Spain if you already done.

    You have a point, i wonder if Russia could have industrialised as fast if it didn’t make use of every labor and resources present

    Not to mention that communist societies have been scrutinized, down to every atom, especially because it contrasts fully with capitalism

    My personal belief is better reform than revolution, but with an imperialist power like USA and maybe even Russia and China if you count them it is essentially impossible.
