i don't live in the west retard. and i'm not middle class either.
also gommunism has never been tried before :-DDD. If you say otherwise i dare you to show me a classless society in which a form of goverment and currency did not exist

gulags exist for people like you.

One time an army of niggers attacked the British for threatening to sit on their magic chair, which held all the souls of their people inside

>>1830155
>i don't live in the west retard. and i'm not middle class either.

Also based on how you type i'm downgrading you to a middle class high school freshman white boy. You aren't fooling anyone.

>>1830155
Communism has never be tried because it is impossible to achieve. That's how flawed it is.

What about the Russo-Japanese War? I think that's up there simply for the sheer incompetence of the Russians.

>>1830174
it's impossible to achieve for now. because we're in the initial stage of socialism.
i'm just waiting for luxury gommunism with my stalin statue

>>1830056
WW1, easily.

>started for no good reason; just entangling alliances and hubris
>38 million people died, many of them horribly
>Europe shelled into oblivion
>paved the way for communism, nazism, and radical islam

>>1830162
If someone tried to sit on my soul I'd attack them too.

>>1830192
>no good reason

"Austria and Germany are fucking invading us and our allies" is a pretty good reason.

>>1830114
>>1830106
imagine if retards in murrica never overreacted and communism had the chance to fail spontaneously with no one to blame it on

>>1830212
Yeah goy, don't fight the gommunism, just wait it out

>>1830056
WW1

2003 Irak war

Could you please be retarded on pol, not on his?

>>1830216
You seriously suggesting communism work?

>>1830071
>"Liberation"

The defeat of the South Vietnamese was immediately followed by the deaths or displacement of millions and persecution of minorities in Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Montagnards, Hmong, Tay, ethnic Chinese and Cambodians, Vietnamese of mixed birth or other non-ethnic minorities such as Buddhist monks, Catholics, Hoa Hao Buddhists, etc. all got screwed pretty hard in the aftermath. They were among the nearly 4 million people in the South who willingly fled, or were subject to imprisonment or death for anti-Communists activities/thoughts.

And all this after a 20-year civil war where nearly a million South Vietnamese died resisting the Communusts, including 250-300 soldiers. Such liberation

The Kettle war?

>>1830232

Obviously he means liberation from colonialism you dumb burger

>>1830231
No, the other guy is

>>1830226
You're a moronic communist sympathizer who deserves to be called out on his bullshit

How can one person be so retarded?
Are you an American?

Nigga read to learn lol

>>1830216
retarded american populists buying russian memes when literally no one else does

russia has always been a complete mess that bothers its neighbors only to distract the population from its internal politics falling apart

>>1830264
I defended Russia?

>>1830208
yes, but Austria and Germany had no real good reason to go to war over Serbia in the first place. As Archduke Ferdinand said:
>“To peace! What would we get out of war with Serbia? We’d lose the lives of young men and we’d spend money better used elsewhere. And what would we gain, for heaven’s sake? Some plum trees and goat pastures full of droppings, and a bunch of rebellious killers. Long live restraint!”

>In 1838 a French pastry cook, Remontel, claimed that his shop in the Tacubaya district of Mexico City had been ruined by looting Mexican officers in 1828. He appealed to France's King Louis-Philippe.

>Coming to a national's aid, France demanded 600,000 pesos in damages, an enormous sum for the time, when the typical daily wage in Mexico City was about one peso (8 Mexican reals).

>When president Anastasio Bustamante made no payment, the king of France ordered a fleet under Rear Admiral Charles Baudin to declare and carry out a blockade of all Mexican ports from Yucatán to the Rio Grande, to bombard the Mexican fortress of San Juan de Ulúa, and to seize the city of Veracruz, which was the most important port on the Gulf coast. French forces captured virtually the entire Mexican Navy at Veracruz by December 1838

>Meanwhile, acting without explicit government authority, Antonio López de Santa Anna, known for his military leadership, came out of retirement from his hacienda near Xalapa and surveyed the defenses of Veracruz. He offered his services to the government, which ordered him to fight the French by any means necessary. He led Mexican forces against the French. In a skirmish with the rear guard of the French, Santa Anna was wounded in the leg by French grapeshot. His leg was amputated, and buried with full military honors.[2] Exploiting his wounds with eloquent propaganda, Santa Anna catapulted back to power.

>With the diplomatic intervention of the United Kingdom, eventually President Bustamante agreed to pay the 600,000 pesos for the baker's damages, and the French forces withdrew on 9 March 1839.

Mexico really is stupid as hell. Maybe they will end up paying for the wall.

>>1830303
It's not only about oil. It's about a semi-literate president causing the usual disruption americans do. And people still want trump

>>1830303
It's not about the oil for us. It's about the Petrodollar.

Saddam wanted to sell oil for other currencies.

All of the Roman-Sassanid Wars. Literal dick-waving contests.

>>1830312
>And people still want trump
people tell me they're only voting him because they think pence will run everything and hillary will cause wwIII and collapse the economy with taxes

McNamara laid out their flawed thinking in The Fog of War
They thought Vietnam was Korea, just some puppet commies. They didn't realize that it was a continuation of the war for independence, and more of a civil war than a proxy one.

>>1830261
both of you needs to fuck off to /pol/ communism sucks ass, but this isn't the board to talk about politics, you guys are just as guilty as that guy for interjecting politics into this, the difference is that he's not hypocritically telling you assholes to fuck off to /pol/.

Any War of [Insert Country or Dynasty] Succesion, good luck convincing your own people that you are the legitimate heir by turning into a battlefield the country you are supposed to govern

I remeber a war where an African country declared war on the British, the British already had ships in the African harbor and shelled the capital for 70 minutes before the country surrendered

Check out the Yinon Plan.

It was all about weakening the regional rivals of Israel. Opposition to the Syrian government is based on the same thing.

All of them.

>>1830277
Yes. We were butthurt about 9/11 and had to blame someone.

War is the continuation of politics by other means. The ends always justify the means for someone so you can't really call any war 'retarded.'

Technically it's not impossible to achieve, you just need a really small community, less than fifty people, if that many, and they need to be in buttfuck nowhere. You have to change the environment to force them to share everything equally, and make it so that everyone polices the other out of necessity rather than fear of a greater power.
