What do you think of Communism

[The Grand World Order]

After some consideration, Posadist Communism is OK, thanks for coming to my TED talk.

[Nieraland]

Communism is an oppressive ideology that has killed far more people throughout the world than any other ideology. It is dangerous and should be treated with caution in the same way that fascism and national socialism are.

NSG anticommunists look a couple pages back in the thread for a thourgh debunking of what their saying challenge.

Except you haven't really debunked anything. In fact, we've proven that the USSR oppressed religion very recently.

If only we had thought so in the US.
We made fascism the primary bogeyman, because the American Left preferred communism, but we had to temper how vitriolic we were about it to spare the feelings of all the fascists we adopted to build our missiles and rockets.

After public education had its way, the last three generations of American kids typically walked out of K-12 with very little objective knowledge of fascism or communism, and the universities do not improve upon the situation much.
For the last century, the societal evolution of Progressivism has amalgamated the bits and bolts of both schools to fine tune its socioeconomic pretensions.

No, i have proven that you people fail to use basic logic in your claims-how could someone lie about a well known punishment for something that was repeatedly conducted.

Imagine pretending that a letter which was (as alleged by "Marxists.org") written by Stalin and published in Pravda to be proof of anything...

You know, politicians can say whatever they want, but that doesn't mean they always remain true to their word. I'm not sure if you saw my previous comment, but I do actually know of Jews whose families fled the USSR due to rampant anti-semitism. It was a very real problem so how about listening to accounts from actual victims instead of brushing it off as propaganda or simply no big deal.

If you had an ounce of self-reflection, you'd read up on the Doctors' Plot and persecution of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee instead of spamming the same old Stalin's lies over and over.

Are there any trustworthy ones in that bunch?

Not that it matters, even if we assume that Stalin actually wrote that letter, it's utterly worthless in an attempt to prove the absence of anti-semitism within the USSR, much less the vast menagerie of other oppressive acts they engaged in.

1: "Marxists.org", biased
2: Politicians, especially dictators, lie, all the goddamn time.

aww the Stalin simp is sad

[Nilokeras]

Let's remember that Stalin was a master at the useful trick of navigating policy failures by way of the classic 'blame the subordinates' defense: if a policy succeeded, it was due to the his sterling leadership. If it failed, or like the Great Purge became unpopular, he could simply announce that he was appalled at the power-grabbing and overzealous actions of his subordinates and that they would be punished at once. The USSR being ideologically anti- antisemitism and also its state organs engaging in antisemitic tropes or actions when it was convenient (such as in denouncing a perceived threat) are two facts that can coexist with one another.

And contrariwise let's also remember that if you were a Jewish person in 1930's Europe, you were probably a lot safer in the USSR than you were in vast stretches of the rest of the continent. Antisemitism was incredibly common in pre-war and post-war Europe. That cover, however imperfect, probably saved a lot of Jewish lives where in other places they were handed off to the Nazis for extermination.

I dont like communism as historically communist countries have suppressive governments like the Eastern Block,USSR and China and they just killed anyone that disagree with them like protesting Eg Tienanmen square square, the famines in china and russia and lastly plus theirs corruption where there much more well off then their citizens

The irony of a tankie telling someone they "fail to use basic logic" is astounding.

Does anyone even take tankies seriously anymore?

if tankies are so cool, then how come there isnt a tankie state

There are multiple and have been more in the past.

[Picairn]

Bovad doesn't have a real argument against actual historical examples (Doctors' Plot and persecution of the JAC), so naturally they must pick fights against posts that don't mention those examples. Sad!

I have yet to see a genuine argument from you. All I see is blind Stalin apologia.

I notice how you've ignored every single post that actually refutes what you say and only respond to insults.
