The West is clearly running out of weapons, they’ve even sent cold war era random number generators to Ukraine.

I’m pretty sure Kuwait or something like that is number one in emissions/Capita.

Lukashenko’s administration is pretty good imo, even though it’s not a party or organization.

And cotton wasn’t even free lol.

The ghost of Britain.

Worse, too much Paradox gaming.

Well tbh they don’t seem particularly racist according to this graph. (In comparison to the rest of the population.)

It’s almost artistic how fucked up this is. Like why does Austria have Alsace ? Why is Romania specifically part of the Soviet Union ?

Yes, exactly. Socialist states have been a net positive wherever they’ve been established. They have consistently enjoyed widespread support by the people, always raised the standard of living of the population, increased literacy, advanced sciences, encouraged brotherhood between peoples…

But there are of course reasons why most of them aren’t around anymore. That is why we have to study their practice, analyse their mistakes so as to not repeat them, compare those states that ceased to exist with those that still do, and use all of that as a theory for our own movements.

I agree with you, except for that we should absolutely judge an ideology by how it is put in practice. We don’t take what liberalism pretends to be at face value, because we know that’s not how it actually works.

As for socialism, practice needs to be integrated into theory, as has been done by the likes of Lenin and Mao. This isn’t a one way relationship.

Sorry for any anarchist out there, but we are perfectly justified to criticize your ideology for its practice. Anarchist have for the most part been an obstacle for the establishment of a stateless society, by neglecting class struggle, supporting imperialism, opposing socialist states, and distrupting the left in general.

At this rate, you’re soon gonna have to watch out for the feds.

I hope I’m wrong, but I think it’s only a matter of time before your account gets banned or suspended. Hate speech, genocide denial or misinformation, they’re gonna find an excuse to do it. You should prepare a backup account or smth, just in case.

Mainly trotskyists, anarchists and ultra-maoists. It’s basically when an ideology focuses more on idealism, dogmatism and utopianism than material conditions.

Those movements tend to have stupid expectations for any socialist state, and they will more often than not support (sometimes by actively fighting for them) a capitalist or even fascist country rather than a socialist state they don’t like.

Maoists are probably the more respectable of the bunch. They’re fanatics, but they also do attempt seize state power and develop socialism in their own way.

Probably refers to eu4. In that game your government can have advisors of varying levels. 1 is the lowest, and they tend to cost more than what they’re worth.
