if anything the USSR made it so people in the west had better working and living conditions
Stop being a ussr apologist
Tbh
USSR apology is stupid
We need to apology USSR becouse people have a wicked image of what it was
Social democracy does not solve class struggle
particularry in the west
>implying it wasn't wicked
coming from russia people here are pretty real about it
And generally the arguments against capitalism still apply to social democracy
if anything lots of russians miss it
Thats nostalgia for you
I can start by saying my key issue with socialism/Marxism once you go far, is the risk of becoming the irony(a nation controlled by the few in parliament).
maybe people want to have a gov that doesnt steal their money for luxuries
Like stalin?
ex east bloc coutnries have terrible wealth inequality
@Deleted User Bureaucracy?
capitalism has failed in every way here
you know
First, are you familiar with the distinction of DoTP, socialism, and communism?
@olev I don't like using the Soviet union/China as an example, as it's like using the US as an example on capitalism. But yeah, the party>People.
I don't know much about China
they talk about the succeses of capitalism in the west, but what about africa and asia?
Ultimately the USSR became a bureaucracy because the lack of productive forces and lack of development
Is Xi an undercover tankie
They could not meet the needs of everyone
Nah
I'm familiar to a point on socialism, but I cannot properly distinct between Socialism/Communism.
people had food etc
Okay, so from a marxist perspective @Deleted User
USSR dissolved becouse beroucracy wanted a pizza hut and shit
they sold themselves to the west
thats why you dont do revisionism kids
take lessons from the DPRK
What
/s
The main difference between the socialist mode of production and communism is distribution of economic output
It might be helpful to know
Hmm, okay.
Marx originally made no distinction between socialism and communism, he just referred to it as "lower stage" and "higher stage" communism
But later in the 20th century, the term socialism assumed the lower stage communism
