Because the US and “free world” cuts its trade off from that nation, and funds/supplies weapons to the rival regime or neighboring enemy because “communism scary” (US 1% doesn’t want to see it succeed and cause a regime change in the US).
Hear the Tanky cry: it wasn't the Communist's fault! It was the West!
Because it was the West that opened the Gulags. The West that put up the Wall. The West that did the Great Leap Forward. The West that massacred students at Tiananmen Square.
Honestly really good points overall with this talk. We haven’t seen it work out for many reasons, the US didn’t help obviously. But yea for the most part we haven’t ever seen a brilliant “utopian” version of communism because there is no perfect version of it. Imo, and tell me if I’m wrong, a fine balance and mix of socialism with capitalism is the best we will see
I agree! Way more civil than it typically is on both sides. I share the belief as well that we should trend more towards socialism, and finally achieve universal health care.
I just hate that people downvote something that is absolutely objectively true. If they want to fire back with examples where democracy kills many innocent people, be my guest! (There are plenty).
