How about, “are anyone of you qualified to do open heart surgery on entire country?”
Stalinists, Maoists and Socialists (at least the reformist ones) are pro-capital, just under a different form. They love their commodity production and wage labor…
I’ve never come across anyone who calls themselves a “Stalinist.” Maybe that’s what some horseshoe theorists call Marxist-Leninists.
The only people I call Stalinist are people who intentionally go about delaying or postponing things. They gotta quit stalin for time.
You could say that but you could also say that they’re biden their time
Is this horseshoe theory?Lmao post this in dad jokes please
I must confess to have stealing this meme from elsewhere and didn’t even notice that lol
The modern revisionists and reactionaries call us Stalinists, thinking that they insult us and, in fact, that is what they have in mind. But, on the contrary, they glorify us with this epithet; it is an honor for us to be Stalinists for while we maintain such a stand the enemy cannot and will never force us to our knees.
What would it even mean?
Kinda like Marxism-Leninism, but in a one-man cult-of-personality police state and if you as much as look funny at the leader, you get disappeared/shot?
In other words, what’s happening to the USA minus the Marxism-Leninism?
Serious question: has communism ever been proved to work at scale? (not communist regimes, the communist ideology)
Have to get past American and western interventionism to figure it out. But socialism lifted millions out of poverty look at china and Russian history. Both countries went from feudal and monarchal society to industrial powers houses rivaling the United States in mere decades. So I’d say yes socialism does work.
no capitalism keeps declaring war on it, the road towards it however… Massive Ws in the soviet union, the prc, dprk, east germany, just tremendous achivements
No system has ever worked at scale. Capitalism is literally destroying the planet we live on, Feudalism wasn’t any better, and no other system was ever applied at such a scale.
Maybe the scale is the problem, and the Anarchists were right all along.
Yet you participate in a society, curious, etc etc
