That's slavery
so?
some just have more of that, like socialism
@Noxar while im not a tankie, the Soviet Union industrialized at the expense of millions of lives, and became a economic superpower barely 40 years into its existence
what, and just bore them to death?
Not much of a punishment
why is slavery wrong anyways?
So you are for castrating an entire class from contributing to the economy
Boom now they will non-stop promote slut culture but I guess I can point fingers at Communism and claim I could have it worse
?
an entire class?
What's this class?
The slave class
You mean the prisoners
Not a class, like it's some caste
Yeah, why not?
If it's for ideas it is
@WizardLizardInABlizzard while that was the theory and logic behind stalinist policies of forced collectivisation, that is what would happen if socialism didn't transition from capitalism and from a agrarian society.
They can do good deeds because of their bad deeds
Slavery is not economically sound
We don't have to do it if it's not pragmatic
@WizardLizardInABlizzard the stagnating economy only worsened under khrusvhevs policies
but they can be useful in some way
Community service
Whatever, really
Because when Russia opened up to world economy gulags already did their damage
@Quasi government appointed life is communism
No, that's totalitarianism
you NPC
@WizardLizardInABlizzard under the guise of opening it up, the military-industrial complex fell under the hands of oligarchs
most final stage communist ideologies wouldn't have government
yes
it's a stateless, classless and moneyless society
well, there's some nuance
but that's the basic gist
under true communism there would be no government
it was still socialism
with dictatorship of the proletariat
Fine, totalitarianism prevents natural development in all aspects; tech, culture, economy, everything
