@yogthos my dude you literally support an organisation that briefly toned down the capitalism in the place it governed before restoring it at gunpoint: you're in absolutely no position to be going around calling others anti-communist.
What organization would that be Jeremy?
@yogthos The Communist Party of China.
Thanks for confirming that you're a troll who has no clue what communism is. Bye.
@yogthos T.I.L. Communism is when you run a few experiments about how society without private property might work but then force all the participants back into capitalism at literal gunpoint.
Do you have a source on the "literal gunpoint" part? just wanna get some context for what you're talking about.
@Fidel_Cashflow they actually ran several experiments some more successful than others. Turns out people don't usually like having to share kitchens but love collective farming arrangements, even ones plagued with accusations of sabotage. I will have to hunt down the dates again but the re-privatisation of farming was not popular when it happened and there were several skirmishes between farmers and police over it.
When you don't know the difference between communism and socialism. What no theory does to a mf
@carl_marks_1312 that's literally the point I'm making to your friend but it's not sinking in.
That's because all you're doing is regurgitating nonsense, and everybody in this thread can see it.
At least do some basic reading of theory instead of bringing nothing new to the table. China is run by communists and the economic system is market socialist (or more accurately SWCC). And yes socialism isn't without contradictions. You haven't event answered my questions how you imagine communism to come about, coward.
Yoghaus is a fucking idiot. Spread the word.
