Well I’ve hit my image limit lol, so unfortunately I can’t keep posting pictures of stuff that “never happened and if they did they deserved it,” lucky you.
Aww I guess you’ll have to get off on gore porn in private now. Neanwhile nobody made that argument at all. The fact that you think posting pictures of bad things that happened under communism to make an argument that communism is bad is a sound argument really highlights the quality of your intellect. I think you’ve given us sufficient demonstration of that.
Communism objectively failed - the USSR no longer exists and modern Russia is a capitalist oligarchy. The PRC is economically capitalist despite all the hammer-and-sickle flags. Meanwhile, the USA and EU economically and militarily dominate the planet. I’d call that succeeding, dominating in fact.
Communism has not objectively failed. USSR managed to improve lives of millions of people, and the transition to capitalism has been an abject disaster. Claiming that the fact that USSR is no longer around is a failure of communism is a nonsensical argument though. Plenty of capitalist regimes fail, yet we don’t see you saying that capitalism failed because of that.
Meanwhile, saying that PRC is capitalist shows a profound lack of understanding of the subject on your part. If you care to educate yourself on the subject then you could read this book https://redletterspp.com/products/the-east-is-still-red
USA got in the dominant position after WW2 not because of capitalism, but because it was the only major power that wasn’t directly involved in the war and hasn’t been destroyed in the process. The world order that US built is collapsing as we speak.
Hexbear and lemmygrad make that argument, and as a result they get to confront their own ideals until they block me. Fuck em. Tankies think it’s good, here it is.
I didn’t make any such argument, but clearly you weren’t engaging with what I said and instead decided to fight a straw man being the intellectual giant that you are. The reality is that bad things happen in every human society. The question is whether the terrible things you spammed here are an inherent result of the communist ideology or not. And of course the other question is whether communists managed to create a society that has a positive trajectory and how it compares to other existing societies run by capitalists. Clearly considering such questions is beyond your intellectual ken.

This you?
Yup, that’s me, presumably you have some point you’re trying to make there?
