totalitarian is when capitalists hold no political power, thus intrinsically evil.

u dropped this 👑

The Soviet Union did more harm than good to the leftist movement and is used as the scary example every single time someone begins to think twice about the capitalist system they live under. Socialism is forever tainted by the USSR and severely struggles to remove that image. Fuck the USSR.

The soviet union literally stopped nazi germany from doing a gargantuan genocide on eastern europe, it’s quite literally the biggest leftist victory hitherto and even now these eastern european countries still live off the crumbling infrastructure built during the soviet union period.

Only idiots parrot this narrative that the USSR was unimaginably bad, please educate yourself and purge this comical perception of the USSR, it’s only there to make you think there is no alternative.

Read Alexandra Kollontai, the liberation of women from household oppression was something they actually did give a shit about and was intentional.

have u been to romania these days 😅

This is so real, especially with the petit bourgeoisie.

a liberal take would be to consume something only based by its place of origin

I boycott american products because they simply are not worth their price

of course not, you can bet that “wealth fund” is invested in institutions that leech of the global south.

thats not something to boast about, it tells how deeply embedded the nordic socdems are in financial parasitism aka imperialism.

living off interests is parasitism

You’re conveniently forgeting all the plundering of the global south the good ol’ european capitalist countries did to develop themselves.

Lmfao

Guys like yeltsin and gorby being able to rise through the party ranks screams incompetency to me. Even khruschev taking over screams incompetency.

But then again, only socialists goverments are under constant attempts to getting toppled by external agents, capitalist states have had plenty of incompetent people in charge yet theyre not under constant siege.

the majority would be relatively the same with minor variances on cultural customs and traditions, society conforms to law whether if you realize it or not, this is a chief principle of materialist philosophy, understanding that the things conform to definite laws and that we must and can discover them. Historical materialism is the materialist conception of history with the conclusion that the development of production is the chief driving force in the development of society, quantitative improvements in production lead to qualitative changes in how society is organized.

With this in mind, Communism is a stage of development where developments in production led to a society of abundance that ended the exploitation of man by man. Communist states, like China, are not in that stage but are organized to pursue that goal, this is why China has a massive focus point on the development of productive industries.

do you realize that you are contradicting your statement? You talk of “human nature” as a law of nature, something that cannot be changed and has to conform every single time, but then you mention that people are just different lmao.

In short, China has billionaires but they are devoid of political power 👍 🇨🇳

It’s almost as if the material conditions of a determinate place do not change overnight.

There is no contradiction with these 2 things.

ah yes let me just manufacture my own toilet paper on my 50m2 apartment
