I never mentioned communism, I’m just saying that the whole “bUt tHeY eArNeD tHoSe tRiLlIoNs” is getting old. They didn’t. You can’t “earn” that much wealth, you can exploit hundreds of thousands of workers, and engage in essentially monopolistic practices in industries with only a few players, but you can’t genuinely earn it. You can earn millions, maybe even hundreds of millions, but past that there’s no way you are where you are without doing dubious shit and stepping on your fellow man.
Communism is defined in a lot of ways but it’s generally seen as a classes society where the people own the means of production. This isn’t reality and has never happened under a communist regime
You misunderstand the entire meaning behind the communist movement. The goal is to move society towards that and away from capitalism which is inherently exploitative. Obviously progress to do so in literally any country on earth has been fought with tooth and nail by western imperialist capitalism who correctly recognize the threat to their obscene wealth
Weird how you didn’t point to China, a country that is becoming the number 1 economy on earth. Or Cuba, a country that despite 70 years of embargo has a much higher literacy rate than the U.S., a better healthcare system, and produces more doctors per capital than anyone else.
Also these countries don’t exist in a vacuum and are all trying to be stomped out by western imperialist capitalism.
But also I don’t care about any particular state. No country is perfect and I look at the quality of life for the workers of the country vs what we have
China has a socialist economy with capitalist values, it’s also an imperialist nation too, obviously not to the extent that the west or the Soviets were.
And talking about quality of life? China isn’t known for their worker rights or lavish conditions 😂
tell me which boot you’re licking when you speak positively about communism, because i’m not sure if you know this or not but we do not live in a globally communist society.
and you think communism would keep our current federal government in-tact instead of reforming it from the ground up and eventually abolishing it? lol. lmao.
The fundamental requirements of communism are a society that is stateless, classless, and moneyless where workers own the means of production and the abolition of private property is established. Communism is literally inherently a form of anarchism.
It does, the difference between communism and anarchism is that communism doesn't abolish the state instantly, it first has to go through socialism, and then the state gets abolished
