  • The socialist personalities and content generators that I’ve been exposed to try to promote socialism but completely disregard the failures of China and the USSR. There have been some atrocities committed, oftentimes not intentional but a result of a person’s inability to meet the needs of their role, for example Chairman Mao’s failures with the great leap forward when he failed to understand what would be needed for manufacturing and industrialization and he had people running backyard furnaces trying to produce steel but failing, the killing of millions of sparrows, the 800,000+ deaths of the land reform movement, the struggle sessions of the cultural revolution, the famine and mass murder in the USSR. Maybe my question is how can Socialists control their message to show the merit in their cause? They cannot deny the past or place blame on others, there needs to be an accounting and accountability when advocating for communism. How do good socialists separate from the unapologetic party members who seem bound to repeat past failures?
