1917 - 1922: Russian Civil War
1922 - 1940: Successful industrialisation modernisation
1941 - 1946: World War Two and its cleanup
1947 - 1953: End of all famines, complete industrialisation and rebuilding of Eastern Europe
1953 - onwards: First country to go into space and Khrushchev introduces market policies and ruins economy

Going from a semi feudal, monarchist, priestridden, antisemitic, starving agrarian shithole to economic powerhouse and global superpower which defeated the nazis in 20 years (while it took the west 200 years including slavery and colonialism), yet some liberals believe the propaganda that socialism doesn't work

Regimenting the whole effort of a nation to industrialize is not socialism, just pure old dictatorship

Lenin with the whole socialism thingie managed to bring down whole Russia to the primitive commune

And Stalin industrialized Russia not because of muh communism

Just because he wanted a fit industry to produce for the army

He had war on his mind

And if you look at the numbers production decreased after communists took power

mega cope

>w-what communist countries making their first and foremost priority military development in order to defend against imperialist pressures? nooo u cant do that thats eeeevil!!!11

Of course production decreased after the communist took over. They had just gone through a massive revolution! The country was a warzone. Plus before the revolution the russian working class was being immensely overworked and underpaid by the Bourgeoise! And they lost a lot of land, with much of the Russian Empire's territory becoming independent countries. It's only natural production would decrease for a while. But after they healed from the revolution the Soviet Union began producing much more than the Russian Empire.
