Im not sure what you mean by socialist countries. But communists countries are more oppresive:
- They have leaders that stay in power for decades. Opposition is often punished.
- There is nor freedom of speech, speaking against the government gets you in jail or worse.
- In some of those countries, people are not allowed to leave the country.
And for the record, I agree that poverty is extremely oppressive as well and we need more socialist reforms in capitalist countries, tax harder the rich, break monopolies, foster more unions and so on, I just dont agree that communism is the magical land you all think it is and the solution to all the problems. Nobody seems to want immigrate to North Korea for a reason.
This just shows how many "people" persons are in tech management that don't really understand technology and don't feel comfortable using it to communicate. Bad news for they is that we, the people that get the job done, we are technology people, we are not afraid of chats and video calls and we know how progress can be measured remotely.
Keep that shit up and you will lose your best employees.
oh im not defending by any means the unregulated system of the USA, my point was against communism, not in favor of something else in particular.
First than anything, great taste in music my dude. Ok, fair point, these countries have it hard because of economic sanctions, but that doesn't explain why they all devolve into a tyrannical, corrupt and repressive systems where people are forced to stay and a great majority seems to want to leave. People just don't have free will and freedom of speech in these places. Is not a coincidence, its by design, communism is intentionally "the dictatorship of the working class".
And don't get me wrong, I dislike very much the unregulated capitalistic system of the USA too, yet a lot of people in the world seem to want to live there instead of any communist country. If I those were my only options, I would hate it, but I would choose the same.
considering that all “communist states” to date have been oligarchic autocracies
And you think that is a coincidence?
I thought the same many years ago, until I saw how it went for every single country that implemented communism and then I didnt like it so much. You all seriously think is a coincidence?
