Here's why I say it can't be true, and most communists would agree.

2019-02-20 04:05:57 UTC  

And lived there until he was like 20-something I think.

2019-02-20 04:06:00 UTC  

Ask him.

2019-02-20 04:06:01 UTC  

Because true communism has never been tried

2019-02-20 04:06:12 UTC  

Oh; that's what you meant.

2019-02-20 04:07:00 UTC  

True fascism has been tried and it recieved a 90+ approval rating though

2019-02-20 04:07:11 UTC  

Just putting that out there

2019-02-20 04:08:21 UTC  

Hitler dindu nuffin. He was in the Honors Society and was inventing the cure for cancer.

2019-02-20 04:08:46 UTC  

Memes aside, his people did love him, and he did make Germany great again.

2019-02-20 04:08:57 UTC  

The facts are the facts.

2019-02-20 04:09:01 UTC  

True

2019-02-20 04:10:16 UTC  

The Weimar Republic was absolute shit

2019-02-20 04:10:35 UTC  

As far back as I can tell, no "communist" dictator was ever loved by his people, but then as we know, true communism was never tried.

2019-02-20 04:11:18 UTC  

No "true" system can really be tried. It will always develop into something else.

2019-02-20 04:11:24 UTC  

The question then becomes, how come true communism was never tried?

2019-02-20 04:11:45 UTC  

Oh no, true capitalism is what we have today.

2019-02-20 04:11:51 UTC  

Capitalism in it's truest sense.

2019-02-20 04:12:09 UTC  

It was designed to be as fucked up as it is.

2019-02-20 04:12:35 UTC  

I'm not a Communist myself nor am I left leaning so I might have a biased view

2019-02-20 04:12:53 UTC  

Whatever you are, don't be a liberal or a conservative.

2019-02-20 04:13:02 UTC  

Those two elements of politics are decoys

2019-02-20 04:13:33 UTC  

Same with libertarianism really

2019-02-20 04:13:33 UTC  

Nah, I have random opinions. I don't subscribe to ideology.

2019-02-20 04:13:41 UTC  

Good, ideology is wrong.

2019-02-20 04:13:55 UTC  

Only truth is right.

2019-02-20 04:16:10 UTC  

If I'm not mistaken the stages to Communism are feudalism, capitalism, socialism, and then finally communism itself.

2019-02-20 04:16:42 UTC  

I have not researched feudalism enough to know what it means, but the rest is fairly spot on.

2019-02-20 04:18:04 UTC  

Feudalism was like the system in Europe during the Medieval times where nobles would own land and peasants would work on it essentially.

2019-02-20 04:18:25 UTC  

hmmm

2019-02-20 04:18:44 UTC  

I'll just look up the definition.

2019-02-20 04:18:49 UTC  

I don't think feudalism would actually work as a stage of communism specifically.

2019-02-20 04:19:35 UTC  

Capitalism got society out of feudalism

2019-02-20 04:19:40 UTC  

I try to be as well-rounded as possible, so I'm gonna have to put feudalism on my list of things to get to know.

2019-02-20 04:20:30 UTC  

I honestly don't really care about Marx or Communism but he does make some decent points

2019-02-20 04:21:52 UTC  

Well, the one good point I gathered from communism is the fact that yeah, we are capable of creating abundance for everyone, we have the technology and the knowledge.

2019-02-20 04:22:30 UTC  

The whole thing with equality is bullshit though really, people were never equal and if you step that up to racial demographics, they are not equal either.

2019-02-20 04:22:52 UTC  

You can want equality while acknowledging that it isn't actually possible.

2019-02-20 04:31:22 UTC  

If I were Kim Jong Un I'd be closely watching those snakes too.

2019-02-20 04:31:34 UTC  

Watching them very closely

2019-02-20 04:32:14 UTC  

Assuming the hosts of US-NK summit are basically USAians.
