Communist is the worst idea ever invented and yet it is believed in by millions

[tahuyaman]

I just did. Cant you read?

You did not.

Now I’ll try again. Tell me one nation where communism has been a success?

 

[danielpalos]

Can you explain what you mean by that?

Mass transit is one example. Infrastructure should also include underground mass storage to conserve greenspace.

 

[Asclepias]

You did not.

Yeah I did. Just because you didn't like my answer doesn't mean I didn't give you an answer.

Canada and every other modern country already have socialism, that is fair capitalism with a good safety net. You are a brainwashed functional moron. Every other modern country already has everything that AOC Bernie Sanders Democrats want. And they are all happier than we are here- fighting for scraps from the rich's table...

That’s not true. Canada is not a socialist nation. Yes, they have socialized programs but are a free market economy. The Nordic countries also are socialist.

But the real question should be, how are those socialist programs working out for them? Not well.

Ok. That cleared it up.

We don’t need to take additional measures to create green spaces. There are more trees in America today than there was 100 years ago.

 

[tahuyaman]

Yeah I did. Just because you didn't like my answer doesn't mean I didn't give you an answer.

What nation did you say has been successful under communist government?

why won’t you answer that? I know why you won’t, because the answer is, “there aren’t any.”

 

[tahuyaman]

No one who advocates communism can give you an example of any nation where communism has been a success.

 

[Asclepias]

What nation did you say has been successful under communist government?

I said every nation that had people survive long enough to create civilizations.

 

[Asclepias]

No one who advocates communism can give you an example of any nation where communism has been a success.

If you're looking modern day, you have a big one in China.

The public sector is "communism" to the extent Government is of, by, and for the People.

 

[tahuyaman]

If you're looking modern day, you have a big one in China.

They aren’t a raving success. They are a brutal totalitarian regime. They are perhaps the single most abuser of human rights in the world. They are anything but a success.

 

[tahuyaman]

The public sector is "communism" to the extent Government is of, by, and for the People.

Huh?

The fall of the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc countries did not spell the end of Communism. It clings on in Cuba, North Vietnam and in Venezuela.

However, the true threat comes from within the United States.

Communists are recruited in college or university through front groups that pretend to be concerned with other issues. The two most prominent Communist front group today is Black Lives Matter and Antifa.

However, very few Communists will admit to being Communists. One of the first thing a new Communist is taught is to lie and always deny being a Communist.

In the United States, Communists have infiltrated and now control a large percentage of our institutions. The Communists call this the "Long March Through the Institutions."

Communists take advantage of the fact that most Americans do not concern themselves that much with political issues, but devote themselves to career and family. Communists will always put Communism above all else, and will devote more time to their cause than anyone else will devote to any other cause.

The stolen election of 2020 was a Communist takeover. For the first time in American history, we do not have a democratically elected government. We are ruled by Communists who will do whatever it takes to ensure that a fair election is never again held in the United States.

Because socialist elitists don't educate their citizens. Dumb people are easily controlled.

 

[tahuyaman]

I said every nation that had people survive long enough to create civilizations.

That was silly and evasive.

 

[danielpalos]

Huh?

The public sector is public not private.

 

[tahuyaman]

The public sector is public not private.

Ok. Your point?

The public sector is public not private.

ok. What’s your point? Are you suggesting that all government is communism?

 

[danielpalos]

Ok. Your point?

ok. What’s your point? Are you suggesting that all government is communism?

It can't be capitalism or we would have an AnCap. It must at the very least, be a form of socialism.

Pure communism is a beautiful thing. Humans tend to fuck it up.

The two main problems with Communism:
1. It never allows opposing political parties and in so doing, quickly becomes authoritarian, tyrannical and murderous. People under the thumb and gun of Communism, aren't allowed to leave if they don't agree with the party. Those people that try to flee its oppression, are arrested or shot trying to leave. People that live under it, can't even vacation outside of their nation, if they don't gather enough "social-credits" to show that they are good Communists.
2. Economically, it's stifling. There's no incentive. Throughout its history and even now, such governments have to actually "steal" technology from western nations and adapt it to their own purpose. It sucks at controlling farms and produce distribution, which is regularly seen in store shelves. Because of this, many starve. As for businesses, because any profits go to the government and is distributed from there to the people, corruption ensures that the politburo elite steal much of it. In a free-market system, the owner pays for the property, the building, the equipment, the materials, the utilities and the taxes thus he/she takes all the risk and so earns the right to the profits, not the paid employee on the line. Their only risk is having to find another job if the company folds.
The bottom line is that Communism comes about as a result of jealousy of someone having more than another person.

So, Communism is the result of uncivilized people.

 

[tahuyaman]

Communism has led to the killing of hundreds of millions of people guilty of nothing other than criticizing communist regimes
