Now that the dust has settled.
We can all agreed that this was the worst example of communism. IF we can even call it communism in the first place.
>>2770797
That was unironically the best example of communism.
Cambodia tho
>>2770797
They were the only ones that made communism relevant in the first place, and also a world superpower
>>2770797
>What are the killing fields.
>What is world war 2.
Yes it was state capitalism.
>>2770797
I'm sure we can do worse, anon. Much worse
>>2770802
How? It completely oppressed its people Nd collapsed leaving the many nations and territory to fend for itself destroying nationa, economies for years to come.
A dictatorship is not communism. Its far from it.
>>2770833
Stalin came in when them little niggas was using wooden ploughs and left them with nuclear reactors. and dey won ww2
>>2770797
I personally hate facile anarchist rejections of the statist-revolutionary model. There's no denying the USSR became a despotic nightmare. I personally draw the line at Kronstadt. But I hate utopian slogans rejecting Proletarian Dictatorship or endorsements of reformism.
>>2770810
>Made communism relevant
Ignoring the fact that they destroyed their monarch empire to replace it with a communist empire.
"N-n-no but this empire is the people's empire"
They didnt make communism relevant, they already had relevance to the world they just labeled themselves something different.
>>2770838
>Stalin came in when them little niggas was using wood
And he left with a 10mil kdr
North Korea. Its like half feudalism with a dynasty controlling it all and being worshipped.
>>2770869
Got me there anon.
I just dont understand why all the shit teir countries have to be communist.
>>2770885
You mean you dont understand why all the communist countries have to be shit tier
>>2770907
Cuba is up and comming though... kinda.
>>2770885
They are not. Second world>third world
The soviet union was stable enough and produced shittily but consistently enough to not end up collapsing into another civil war.
Y'know, 50's-90's it was middle of the road, not all that good but could be much worse.
>>2770917
And it took only 58 years...
>>2770833
Yeah, and most communist countries wound up way worse than that.
The worst example of state capitalism to be exact.
>>2770797
No, you're just a pleb.
>>2770917
Cuba and North Korea are just outdated buffer states to prevent the US from gaining a larger hold on the world.

>commies in the 1950s: "We are the right side of history! We will bury you!"
>commies in the 2010s: "Nah, the Soviet Union? Wasn't real communism. Real communism has never been tried."
>>2770932
Things take time.
*ahem* ni hao
>>2771107
You forgot "commies in the 70s", when Brezhnev announced "building communism" (USSR never claimed itself being communistic, only socialist) is no longer a priority, but rather the well-being of population.
But that requires you to actually know history, not just spew memes. Also, that decision effectively lead Soviet economy to become resource-based, rather than industry-based, but that a whole another story.
>>2771111
Not for capitalist countries apparently
>>2771140
A communism so bad, it saved the country.
>>2771343
>USSR never claimed to be communist
USSR had only one legal party, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union which basically controlled the entire country
>>2770866
>kdr
What is this call of duty?
>>2771868
Ever heard of the great leap forward?
Or the cultural revolution?
Mao killed more chinese people than the japs did
>>2771904
He saved the country, even if he killed some people here and there.
>>2771904
I was talking about how bad they are at communism nowadays that things are improving.
>>2770797
>No True Scotsman the thread!
>>2770885
Because communism is generally implemented in poorer countries with a greater wealth disparity and poverty. The contented western nations don't usually have communist revolutions.
>>2771883
Which claimed they had not yet reached communism.
>>2770866
What the fuck is a "ten million kill/death ratio?"
Ahem.
>>2770797
At least it had vision, unlike so many of the other attempts.
I also like how everything isn't communism because it somehow fails to follow Marx's near-autistic guidelines on what is/ and how to implement Communism.
It's probably the best example of what communism was and ever will be if people don't stop taking Marx as gospel. "You can only become a True Communistâ„¢ if you hit this exact and specific paradigm and if you don't you're magically not a True Communistâ„¢".
Honestly, it's time commies let go of the commie epitaph.
