the correlation of all socialist nations has always been they've been recently feudalistic societies with a huge peasant population @Xinyue Currently I don't know of any country like this, the world is now fully globalised and all nations have transitioned from Feudalism to Capitalism, nations that recently were feudalistic and were still transitioning had the opportunity to become socialist, the 20th century was your chance, it was destroyed by Liberalism just like Liberalism and Socialism destroyed Nationalism. There are no more opportunities, you need to find another alternative that still fits your ideology

maybe i'm wrong though, but i do think this is a very obvious correlation

Europe is turning socialist tho

EUSSR

<:boomer:521456245505523712>

Europe will soon invade America

Ebin

And spread EU socialism

EU socialism

interesting take

Oh it can be done. There's no reason to assume it will be impossible, only that it will be exceedingly difficult. I'm not going to be that easily demoralised 😉

FOR MUTTI MERKELLL!!!!

*Russian styled urrah*

academic Marxists think they can bring about Socialism using nigz, they're idiots

Templar....I'm not falling for obvious <:bait:520002653439262721>

I don't think a country full of people with iphones and with normal wages who are brainwashed by liberalism and capitalism will acknowledge the fruits that can genuinely come from socialism @Xinyue also you can see this from the fact that when liberalism destroyed socialism, like a disease it infected socialism and turned it into a joke, one being "social democracy" and "democratic socialism" both being liberalised forms of true socialism, same for nationalism

germans aren't human

Wtf.

@Res Publica are u muzzie

i mean modern socdem btw

@AdorableStormtrooper wtfrick?

:/

but... i don't think i was a fan of old socdem either in all honesty

It was still liberal regardless

Social liberals

I am a proud Breton my man

In Europe

And dem states

liberal democracy gets you absolutely nowhere

socdems get the bullet too

Socialism is closer than you think

@AdorableStormtrooper fascism is heavily socdem

Social liberalism

@Res Publica so basically Paki, got it

@aymem when automation and adoption of new applications of AI from recent few years makes everyone permanently jobless and the elites consolidate everything, I think a wee bit of class consciousness will take shape and bring about some revolutionary potential. The only question is whether or not that will be too late.

Today's liberalism is social liberalism

@aymem so heavily socdem fascists get the bullet too

AI will certainly change the landscape and this is why i'm not a pessimist, Marx was right in assuming that the positive of Capitalism is the constant need to evolve and to enhance production, this will inevitably make humans obsolete

HOWEVER

I think there is a huge argument to be had

on what will be the consequence of having wage labour be obsolete and unnecessary
