You forgot the funniest part that their communist propaganda was extremely unpopular in their own homeland because Estonia had to suffer through the soviet era first hand. When CCCP collapsed, Estonia was a 3rd world country left in ruins, who also had their neighbours and culture cousin Finland constantly remind them how shitty the whole soviet system was.

After 35 years Estonia is finally around the same life quality level as Finland, all thanks to that evil capitalism.

>>
>>725839949
>Why would being a Communist mean you can't purchase things?
Money and means of work belong to the people. If the bitch is hogging the money for herself to buy herself expensive luxuries, that goes against everything that proletarianism stands for. Why is she not using that money to feed the poor instead? That money belongs to the people.

because the biggest shills of communism are typically white, middle or upperclass, and have never worked a day in their life.

that's a fair point, though by this point even poor people have access to macbooks. it's not exactly a sign of luxury outside of the third world. it's like calling someone bourgeois for having a smartphone when 95% of Americans have one.

Soviet Union and Mao's China both suffered through top 3 worst famines in human history. Khmer Rouge shot any cambodian who had any money whatsoever. Soviet Union went bankrupt and collapsed.

Don't get me wrong here, I get the secular perspective overall, but I don't get how any atheist could say Islam is the *lesser* evil when its worst parts are basically 12th Century Christianity: Dante Must Die Mode

Guys like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens acknowledge this obvious statement and it somehow makes the "atheist community" at large exile them. It happening to Dawkins is especially amusing because I remember him being the atheist pope but now he's just a dirty Islamophobic bigot.

Capitalism is the generation of capital on any wider scale. This includes the individuals in society such as yourself. If you have any amount of savings, you have generated capital and are thus a Capitalist. You are not working class under the rules of Communism, in which you are merely given the necessities to survive. So basically you live in a state-controlled bed share/commune. You will be given a roof over your head, a bed, and any necessary tools to be able to complete your work. That's it.

Communism to be fair, isn't even real, the meme of 'its never been tried before' doesn't work because the system itself is flawed at a fundementally incapable of functioning

Capitalism is the observation of how wealth creation actually works, specifically the observations of Adam Smith.

The problem with Communism as outlined by Marx and Engles is that Marx and Engles themselves never worked a day in their lives, both were the 19th century versions of nepo babies, the only jobs they ever had was factory managers where they sat in an office getting drunk and reading books all day. So its very easy for them to make assumptions on labor because they never worked a day in their lives. There is no such thing as "each according to their ability, each according to their needs" because this fundementally avoids a major component to basic civilization: the desire for something better. I worked retail, and I worked back breaking ball busting hard labor, I would work back breaking ball busting hard labor any day because it pays better, but if I got the same pay as a burger flipper or retail worker, I wouldn't do it, which is why ever communist state needed forced labor to get anything done.

You forgot the other big problem communism has:
Because people are not unified in their goals, you have to force them to work for the same goals by managing every aspect of society. That is impossible even for rich countries, let alone shitholes like Russia or China. Theres too much chaos and variance in human societies for any governments to fully control. North Korea gave up long time ago and half-legalized 3 major black markets selling chinese goods (and illegal south korean goods). Only way communists could solve the problem would be chemical brainwashing of entire populations, similar to ant colonies.

Capitalism as a system is not the best system out there, its the current best compromise where there are some measure limiting the society disrupting excesses of normal human chaos. Its not trying to control the chaos, its steering it towards less destructive directions.

We must define modern socialism as different from its roots.
There's no support for the actual proletariat in modern leftism. Also why rich kids support it, because having a large underclass of criminal browns and transsexuals is perfect work for the type of over-educated sociology majors etc.

Every economy is controlled by the state they exist in. If the US government agrees to shut you down, you get shut down, if your local politician wants you to pay them for a liscense, you pay them, or you replace them yourself.

Main thing is that if any business wants to opperate in china, it needs a CCP party member in a controlling position at the company who is able to take control of the company at a given moment, where in the US they'd just shut you down and let your competition take your place.

It's popular with the crowd who believe in things like subjective morality. For these kinds of "people", the belief is that your political alignment is not born of any kind of innate morality or logic, but it's like religion, if your parents were commies then you're either a commie or an anti commie to rebel against them.

They were an unorganized shithole during the early stages of the war, after coming from the brutal commie revolution that left everyone fucked especially the military. Contrary to popular belief is that Germans outnumbered the defending soviets during the blitzkrieg. the Germans actually outnumbered the defending Soviets during the Blitzkrieg. It wasn't until around Stalingrad and afterward that they finally got their shit together and organised a massive 7 million troops at its peak to destroy the Germans. The only mistake that they did was not push through to the rest of Europe.

almost like no one actually gives a damn about needs.
perhaps the commies are wrong that we do stuff to live in some survival of the fittest sense? or some sort of systemic self-maintenance.
perhaps its exactly the opposite? we live to do stuff. to live a certain kind of life worth living.
perhaps it isn't about materialistic gratification at all. perhaps it's about character - who you are.

the funny/sad thing is the kneejerk reaction to communism you get from Americans is just ingrained McCarthyism they inherited from their parents. they don't know how communism works, they've never read marx, they don't know how its different from capitalism, they just know "COMMUNISM BAD" and that's enough to make them cry out for 250 posts anytime it gets mentioned.

it's like a true example of, as marx would say, "the tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living." they struggle to break free of their programming, and many never will.
>>
>>725851191
No they didn't. And I'm not even saying this to suck up for Soviet faults, because Soviet command was garbage.
The fact was in 1941 the lend lease tanks the Soviets received were primarily dog shit Stuarts to replenish Soviet tank losses from the opening stages of Barbarossa and they had poor armor and tall profiles that made them good targets for German tankists. The British were more in need of American tanks than the Soviets. The main supply given to the Soviets was food for the besieged populations. By the time Shermans started to arrive into Soviet hands the Soviets were undoubtedly on the offensive and beating the Germans back in 1943. Read a book.

I wanna chime in that a big reason capitalism has had such objective success is that part of the ideology is to harness human moral failings rather than suppress them

I'd be genuinely interested in other systems with an element of "Human beings are going to be assholes, perhaps we will have more success if we harness them being assholes in a useful way instead of trying and failing to make them stop being assholes"

I don't 100% buy into the greed is good mantra, but it seems like there's something to be said for the idea of extracting value where you can from vices that you can't eliminate anyway

The problem with the Soviet command is that they were too big and were issuing complex commands that no one can perfectly follow.

There's a million different sects of Communism but none of them have ever achieved the actual end-stage which is a stateless society. But to say Communism is stateless is like saying Capitalism is stateless just because the end goal is a society run by corporations, but in Communism's case it's run by trade unions and workers collectives instead of a bunch of shadowy billionaires.

So no, Communism is not stateless in any practical sense. It's an ideal to aspire to, but that's about it.

i agree basically. the most important consideration of any government is "what do we do about selfish cunts?" it's no good building a well if someone's going to poison it.
putting those people in competition with each other and letting everyone else pick their favourites helps mitigate a lot of those problems. obviously, you still need a central government enacting some restrictions on them, which every supposedly "capitalist" country has.

Hell the Internet alone would have made George Orwell's head spin, information suppression at large scale is simply not feasible and the speed and ease of communication means it's simply not probable.

In communism, you dont get luxuries because the entire country is too busy trying to keep the people fed and clothed and housed and its very inefficient to do this from a top down level, so even if the technology "exists", the money or resources to exploit it doesnt, theyre dedicated elsewhere.
China is state capitalism, not communism anymore, and "has" iphones and starbucks" in their cities. Go to rural china, where 60% of chinese live, and see if it looks so good.

Hasan is the biggest commie streamer and hes a nepo baby that lives in a multi million dollar mansion making excuses on why he can't donate money to the more needy in between crying when Mr beast helped people with some eyesight surgery
