Things that happen under capitalism all the fucking time
The US Empire is absolutely the biggest obstacle for Socialism and Communism globally, and it is becoming more obvious that it is on its way to collapse.
american here. people always say “communism doesn’t work.” but it’s never been tried without US interference afaik. capitalism isn’t working too good for us over here rn, either.
USian here, Communism works exceptionally well considering constant Imperial siege from the US empire. It's pretty clear to me that it's the way forward, without Imperialist influence (like brutal sanctions and bombings) AES countries would have even better metrics, when they already have better metrics compared to Capitalist countries of similar development.
AES countries
What’re these?
Actually Existing Socialism. Cuba, Vietnam, the PRC, Laos, DPRK, the former USSR, etc.
@Cowbee have you actually met anyone who lived in the USSR? bc i have. they hated it there, no freedom of speach, of press or even independant unions
bc the comunist govt controled everything
Most former Soviet citizens preferred Socialism over Capitalism. The dissolution of the USSR killed 7 million people. The Soviets enjoyed a doubling of life expectancy, free, high quality healthcare, education, and childcare, all while having one of the highest rates of economic growth and lowest rates of wealth disparity. The economy was democratized.
Regardless of anecdotes, the metrics are factual.
@Cowbee 7 mil? you got a source for that?
you got a source for the economic growth stuff?
or any of this at all?
Sure. Blackshirts and Reds (specifically the chapters for "the free market goes east) for the devastation and death brought from the destruction and privatization of social services, as well as the immense social benefits. Here are the stats on economic growth:
I can give more sources if you want, but I think those are sufficient for the points I made.
@Cowbee comlib encryptionin space 💀
yeah i prefer not to click sketchy urls thatll install some cryptominer on my pc, no thank you
Seems more like an excuse not to click it, it's a library with epubs translated by a good comrade here. But, if that's not fine, use Blackshirts and Reds.
Please, Mr. Xi. Press the communism button. My people are suffering

This is incredible, in a hilarious way. Thanks for sharing!
