Except even “communists” always give up on the whole idea, and simply keep the name and the authoritarian aspects. China in its current state is what happens when corporations own the government. It’s post late stage capitalism. They just skipped a bunch of steps. And so-called socialists are applauding, because they have no actual principles beyond being contrarian, edgy, anti westerners.
The lot of them are edgy teens, boring trolls, or corpo state employees.
You used so many words to tell us that you have no clue regarding what you're talking about. Go read some history books instead of trolling here.
thank your for your factually wrong statement
This belongs to lemmygrad, not memes
Nah it belongs right where it is.
Every system inevitably succumbs to the corruption of greed, and this corruption is invariably cited by critics as evidence of its inherent dysfunction.
The only triumphant strategy to alleviate the burdens of the common man is return to monke.
Not every system is based completely on greed unlike capitalism. Bernard Mandeville, who was not a communist (and cannot be at all), described the essence of then just beginning capitalism in his book "The Fable of The Bees: or, Private Vices, Publick Benefits" back then in 1714. TLDR: private vices (especially greed) create social benefits .
lol, my friend seems to be stuck in both the denial and bargaining stages of grief at the same time. 😊
It takes people a while to become deprogrammed.
Ah Yes comrade
The problem is government not capitalism
The government represents the interests of the class that holds power in society, and under capitalism that's the capital owning class.
Succdem gang. We can end the worst abuses without falling into tyranny.
