The Soviet Union was about as socialist as North Korea is democratic.

Uhhh, you know two things can both be bad simultaneously, right? The Soviet Union was a merciless colonizing empire that subjugated and poisoned everything it touched. That’s what empires do.

In 1919, when Lenin said this, he was using the army to forcibly extract grain from peasants. That was the gist of "war communism" which was the Russian economy from 1918 to 1921. There was a lot of violence involved. That strategy lead to a famine that killed millions of people. That was around the same time that Lenin refused to allow urban workers to unionize. It was technically Trotsky who said that it didn't make sense for workers to have a union when they already had the Communist Party to represent them. But Lenin was standing behind him. And of course the same period saw the Red Terror, during which Lenin's people executed tens of thousands of Russians. Back in 1917, after the February revolution, the governing political body was the Duma which had a very strong socialist membership, and which was planning elections. There were also the soviets exerting powerful pressure on the Duma. The soviets were democratic, and entirely socialist. There were paths to a democratic-socialist state. But Lenin threw all that out, dissolved the Duma, and turned the soviets into apparatuses of the Communist Party because he thought no one else could do socialism correctly. And Russia got decades of authoritarianism. IMO Lenin is emblematic of the destructive outcomes of refusing to work with others who don't share your particular political philosophy.

And what he came up with in the end is the idea that today's China is some kind of socialist avantgarde... Sad... Maybe I'm a better socialist than you since that thought is aberrant to me.

Unstable Vs stable. But the latter is stable because public opinion is heavily guided. Girl at work tried to use DeepSeek so I showed her some questions and then asked the same questions on le chat mistral. A little bit of a different answer 😁 China heavily controls their population. Just what it is. Then we have people like you defending china. Chinese companies own 80% of cobalt in Congo. They use this to dominate the battery market. They subsidise EV and phone companies. So that I get those items on the back of Chinese tax payers. They are capitalists. But you can't really say that in china, now can you.

Monday there's a strike against government policy. I won't join because I'm pro government policy. We do somewhat control policy by voting. The greens for example reduced nuclear energy. So they lost many votes. Now we are funding nuclear energy again. If the greens were authoritarians. Then we would only hear how great it is to be without nuclear energy. Only hear the positive sides of it. Opposition silenced. Then we wouldn't be able to impact policy on the next election, as there would be propaganda. How else do you want to achieve democracy? Mr definitely not brainwashed

When I say that china is just another capitalist nation, then your whataboutism to other capitalist nations does not defend china. It proves my point. China heavily guides public opinion, there's no opposition allowed. And you are a mouthpiece for the Chinese government. And you're allowed to do it because we allow opposition. That's democracy.

The move to the right is because the USSR fell. USSR fell because of the distribution of fossil fuels at the time, too much coal in the US making the country very strong regardless of politics and too much oil in a weak and vulnerable monarchic Saudi Arabia, that got exploited by the US, made the situation even worse. But people don't listen to logic. Most people listen to results and then attribute emotional explanations to them. Even most people on the left. The gap the USSR left behind has been filled by US radical feminists and later US trans-feminists. Neither of them are much interested in social inequality, but are more about female victim-supremacy, while letting economic liberalism thrive. It's female supremacism dressed up as the one true socialism, just like naziism being (white) male nationalist supremacism, with one big difference, which is how the former is merely restrictive and incompetent, while the latter is more competently world endingly destructive and more succesfully genocidal. Feminist power is very fickle. It derives it's power from a shortage (100f:105m) of young (20-40) women and nothing else. In the 21st century with advanced technology, that's not going to last very long, hence why we've already gotten into the age of transfeminism, where men seeing the benifits of female power are able to get halfway there and are able to influence the feminist movement to such an extend, that it has almost has been taken over. But the shortage still remains, so US (trans-)feminism still dominates over the socialist spectrum of their empire. With so little left left in the US, and with a movement having usurped the name, there's nowhere left to turn for US citizens and all of their vassal states for that matter. The only rivaling semi-nation within the US empire, the EU, has sunk so hard, as it doesn't have any fossil fuels left that it's worshipping the US even harder than it already did during the time the US was at its strongest in the 1950s. (Feminist) Liberal US then attacked Vladimir Putin's Russia via proxy, although it would not have been different under ultra-capitalist US, but it did confuse the US white supremacist wing of the ultra-capitalists, and grow sympathy for Putin, because the feminists hate Putin for everything the white supremacists love, as Putin's ideology is centrist Christian Conservatism and multipolarism. While the centrism (more left than US liberalism) and multiporarism (less imperialist than US liberalism) is glossed over by US feminists, his macho shirtless horse riding and hatred of the promotion of transfeminism, is not. Not to mention that US continues to be imperialist and has started to inflict color revolutions aimed directly against his country and every single one of the former Soviet States. This amplified his need to promote a macho personality and lifestyle for military morale support against these coups-and-attacks-by-payment. Since automation is moving on, we're heading towards an accelerated second socialist revolution at lightning speed. We will see a giant move to the left once China starts to surpass the US, especially in nations surrounding China that trade with them the most. It's unclear which country will ride the new socialist wave first, but I'm suspecting former socialist countries like Russia will go first and neighbouring nations like India won't be far behind. Meanwhile it's unclear what will happen in the US. The situation is very similar to nazi Germany, but the key difference is the US two-party system that constantly prevents one party from dominating one or the other as the opposition is always united.

Iain McLean has worked at the Universities of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Warwick, and Oxford, and has held visiting professorships at Washington & Lee, Stanford, Yale, and the Australian National University. He has been an elected councillor on Tyne & Wear County Council (committee chair) and Oxford City Council (group leader). You think his definition is "absurdly hollow and self serving" ? Honey what have you accomplished? Do you really think your argument holds any water against a resume like Dr. McLean's? For you to describe his work as "absurd and hollow" is the height of irony.🤣💀 Thank you for making my day!!!
