thinking that capitalist propaganda is correct

2019-07-11 07:28:31 UTC  

of course he won't go to the other link I gave.

For one, Xexizy and FinBol start out wrong here. The definition of Capitalism is right, sure.
But you'd have to say *well bc it's a state* makes it not commodity production. They are doing it for the *same* reason. The workers of the USSR were not planning this themselves. They didn't even own the shit.

inb4 worker representation = socialism

Nationalizing every single industry would not make America socialist

2019-07-11 07:29:09 UTC  

At this point you're arguing statism can now be socialism. Which just deviates from the initial point.

2019-07-11 07:29:32 UTC  

oh so everybody who disagrees with you is wrong

2019-07-11 07:29:36 UTC  

bruh

2019-07-11 07:29:58 UTC  

Are you saying if we *represent* workers owning things they actually own it?

2019-07-11 07:30:12 UTC  

Representation is not ownership. Republic are not direct Democracies.

2019-07-11 07:30:15 UTC  

what other class was there then?

2019-07-11 07:30:35 UTC  

"manager", dont make me laugh with that

2019-07-11 07:30:55 UTC  

>the state in itself does not function with the same utility
>when it's doing the exact same thing as Capitalists were b4 but with nationalization and worker representation

2019-07-11 07:31:12 UTC  

You could literally destroy wealth classes

2019-07-11 07:31:19 UTC  

Have this and you still don't have workers controlling it

2019-07-11 07:31:21 UTC  

>capitalists exist under the ussr

2019-07-11 07:31:24 UTC  

proof?

2019-07-11 07:31:28 UTC  

I didn't say that

2019-07-11 07:31:29 UTC  

Don't strawman

2019-07-11 07:31:57 UTC  

then who owns them, what are the peoole with special relations to them

2019-07-11 07:32:04 UTC  

```>when it's doing the exact *same thing* as Capitalists were b4 but with nationalization and worker representation```

2019-07-11 07:32:15 UTC  

the state itself does not constitute a class

2019-07-11 07:32:19 UTC  

The state planners were, actually. The soviet government did this

2019-07-11 07:32:20 UTC  

dude

2019-07-11 07:32:24 UTC  

I literally just explained

2019-07-11 07:32:30 UTC  

you can destroy a wealth class of owners

2019-07-11 07:32:33 UTC  

>the planners are capitalists

2019-07-11 07:32:39 UTC  

Strawmanning hard asf

2019-07-11 07:32:51 UTC  

>took the place of capitalists

2019-07-11 07:33:03 UTC  

and if the state still MAINTAINS their position, nothing has changed except you've nationalized

2019-07-11 07:33:06 UTC  

No, they directed the economy

2019-07-11 07:33:20 UTC  

Was Fascist Italy Socialist? The Social Republic loved nationalizing

2019-07-11 07:33:22 UTC  

You have not shown how planners can be a class

2019-07-11 07:33:23 UTC  

must be socialism

2019-07-11 07:33:24 UTC  

I'm bored and lonely

2019-07-11 07:33:29 UTC  

I didn't call planners a class

2019-07-11 07:33:41 UTC  

But you literally did

2019-07-11 07:33:51 UTC  

"The state planners were, actually. The soviet government did this"

2019-07-11 07:33:52 UTC  

They did not *directly own* by legal terms, but they collectively did the same thing. Claiming it was representing.

Directing an economy =/= Socialism

2019-07-11 07:33:59 UTC  

Imagine taking context out

2019-07-11 07:34:17 UTC  

Organization is *one* part of it and I have given more than enough evidence

2019-07-11 07:34:19 UTC  

Where is yours?
