Is that because the same evidence and sets of statistics are presented to you each time?

“It is difficult for me to imagine what “personal liberty” is enjoyed by an unemployed hungry person. True freedom can only be where there is no exploitation and oppression of one person by another; where there is not unemployment, and where a person is not living in fear of losing his job, his home and his bread. Only in such a society personal and any other freedom can exist for real and not on paper.” -J. V. STALIN

Socialism seems to be becoming more popular, but it's reformist, not revolutionary. I think after the shitshow that was the 20th century everyone is burnt out on revolutions for now.

I know they are more interested in endlessly debating over failed dictatorships than a realistic future for socialism, so that's all I need.

When Marxism does good things, they could only have been achieved by Marxism. When Marxism does bad things, they either never happened, or the victims were fascist. When other ideologies do bad things, it's proof of the superiority of Marxism. When they do good things, it's just a stopgap which cannot prevent the coming WORLD REVOLUTION

Marxists do not deny the likelihood of atrocities, they just view their tyranny as preferable, and then act surprised when Maoists and Stalinists send them to the gulag.
>hurr durr i cannot read
I am not surprised that you cannot ask "Terror against who?" or "Terror for what?"
The point Marx makes in that quote is that every revolution has revolutionary terror. The question is who that terror is directed at and why.Autarkheia wrote:Fucking kulaks.
"Why does Marxism always result in mass murder and dictatorship? Must be the capitalists. Oh, btw it never happened."
"Marxism always results"
You have no idea what you are talking about. Marxism is a method of historical analysis and analysis of Capitalism. Socialism is the word you want to use, and you are wrong anyways. I suggest you read a little bit of Marx before talking about Marxism or Socialism like you understand it completely.

Vortiaganica: Lamoni I understand fully, of course. The two (Lamoni & Lyras) are more inseparable than the Clinton family and politics.
Triplebaconation: Lamoni commands a quiet respect that carries its own authority. He is the Mandela of NS.

Maybe it couldn't have achieved industrialization at the same fast rate (one thing a command economy is genuinely good at) but clearly it's not the only way to industrialize, or necessarily the best just because it was fast.Northern Davincia wrote:Reformist socialism can achieve anything the USSR did without obscene casualty rates and totalitarianism, however.

1) yeah I do, we're just shitposting 2) I'm not right-wing, though if you believe Stalin was a democrat then up is down I guess and anything goesI get tired of these debates fast because right wingers seem to believe themselves to know everything. You really don't understand what Marxism is or what Socialism is.
