trotsky was killed for being dumb
and trying to destroy the ussr
he said that communism needs capitalism in its first stages
basically
and stalin disagreed
what
and it fails until they get out of money
why?
because their economical system always fail, because there is not private property, there's not foreing investors, the state always spend most of it's wealth in different areas such as infraestructures, education, armed forces (wich is not bad) but... the problem is that when there's no foreing investors and there's no private property the state would not have more earnings and they could not compense all the money they spent
“Communism is capitalism “
Karl Marx is spinning in his grave
thats literally what grimm is saying
@beans they came out of the Russian empire, anything is better then that
and you are saying that Communism is Capitalism
titoism was entirely capitalism
the only difference being
they had co-operatives rather than private ownership
like China
left wing =/= communist
Communism is Extreme Left Wing
what are you talking about?
yes
left wing =/= communist
communists are one part of the far left
then why the =/=?
communism cannot be compared to social democracy
Social Democracy also can fail
I haven’t seen it fail yet
Sweden is doing good economically
In my country it did, during 1959-1999
social democracy follows the laws of capitalism
market crashes still exist
the rate of profitability still declines
however social democracy is the best form of capitalism
social democracy can have many things, but the main aspect of it is having a social safety net for people so they don't get completely fucked over when something bad happens
