tito was explicitly anti-serb
when observing through national lense, the serb got fucked in yugoslavia
he started importing albanians ultimately to replace the serbs
> Tito was a butcher
.....mmkay. In the late 1940s, I'd say that's an apt characterisation. Yugoslavia did undergo a brief Stalinist phase, this is oft ignored by yugo enthusiast and lots of mistakes were made in that period. To be sure, you had fascist insurgencies that needed to be quelled but nothing really justifies the estimated 150K death figure. Imo. Then again, considering what the Independent State of Croatia - the fascist lackeys of the third reich - did during WW2 (killing 660K civilians), it might have been unavoidable.
dude, the full extent of the tito crime hasn't even been uncovered
just like russia, serbia keeps it locked behind a key
unmarked graves etc. its why the post balkanazation was such a mess, because they started uncovering the graves tito made
The full extent of 20th century crimes in general will never be known. 19th and 20th centuries were *fucked,* man. Absolutely fucked. There may be entire millions of people dead from both centuries who'll never be accounted for. So while that might be true, its not necessary *uncommon* for the century in question.
they tried to pin that on serbs too
yeah that's true
anyway got to go
talk later
yeah sure ttyl
@Xinyue ```the only non-capitalist movements are socialist ones, because socialists are the only people who reject private ownership of means of production. therefore yours is not in any way a movement skeptical of capitalism, merely a more mixed form of it```
I would go with Socialism if it worked better, I'm not ideological when it comes to Economics, Capitalism isn't a high value where I derive all my other Politics from...
i miss all the discussions involving xinu every time :D
Interesting. In my view, the Economic and the Politics are irrevocably intertwined - politics is economy, and vice versa. So in my own ideological terms, I cannot separate the two - so for me communism, in both its economic and political dimension, becomes an existential choice in its own right.
And yea yea stormfag, I bet u do
😁
You say that because you're a Materialist, you see Socialism and Capitalism both as ideologies are Materialistic.. this is why I'm not ideological regarding either, i don't want to preserve a pure free market or try to work out Socialism for the sake of Socialism itself..
Economics to me is a means to a goal, not a goal in and of itself, economics is supposed to support a People, but when you get ideological about it, you just throw people at your favorite purest Ideology
well, Communism in the Marxian sense is *necessarily ontologically materialist,* whereas various other socialist and capitalist schools of thought *might be* such but aren't necessarily. But beyond that, the economy - in a sense - *is the people* and their activities in a very real and direct, intimate sense. Economy is the collection of the creative, productive and servicing activities of the whole people and in this respect economy can't be really separated from the notion of the People. So any ideological approach to the people must in the final analysis have a firm stance on economics.
I think there's far more to *a People* than Economics
and the stance on economics, while it can assume millions of forms, ultimately flow from the very foundational duality of whether or not
a) private ownership of means of production, *or*
b) social ownership of means of production
is pursued as primary. The group A of solutions define the right-wing, whereas the group B of solutions define the left-wing.
A Nation can be Richer whilst being comparatively Poor in terms of how much money and resources it has
well sure, I don't mean that you can *reduce* the People to the Economics, but that nevertheless the economics is directly, intimately and immediately connected to the being of the People
maybe, but i think you guys overemphasize it
well, you say that,
but we put great emphasis on economics because economics is the *creative, productive activity of men* and we view labour as an ontologically important, near-divine (though it would be perhaps inappropriate to use that term) attribute of man
that is sexist
