the 1990s were known as the special period in Cuba because without the soviets squeezing them, they could afford a bunch more stuff

what killed the soviet union was being economically outnumbered like 2-1 without having wormed its way into a critical part of the global supply chain

the soviets were doomed to lose the cold war, and had already long before the collapse anyway, but i dont believe a collapse of the warsaw pact and satellite states necessarily meant the end of the USSR

The Soviet Union’s struggle against the West was over the moment Khrushchev did his secret speech

Wouldn't it be awesome to relearn that your political enemies are dead every day? I hope my golden years are full of people bursting into my room to announce that Kissinger died for the thousandth time.

liebot what is the saddest thing? trofim lysenko, standing in a blizzard atop a pile of starving children holding a dead banana tree seedling in his hands and telling it its grandseedlings will grow into fine trees and the children of the starving children will climb them and shelter from snow storms under their fronds. beria, alternately fondling his genitals and his pistol, asks "so, you uh done with those kids then?"

MSDOS KAPITAL posted:So do we consider any DotP to be capitalist, here? Like I said, this sounds like capitalist realism: everything is capitalism. I don't know what DotP (Dick of the Pussy, thanks mawarannahr; also no) is. Capitalism is both a mode of production and an ideology. I am talking about the mode of production. A large part of the Chinese economy participates in the capitalist mode of production. This is whether you count State enterprises as State Capitalism or not. I never claimed that China was capital-C Capitalist the way you describe. I wasn't aware of that term or its definition. Where does it come from? Michael Hudson classifies China as a Mixed Economy. There is Capitalism. There is State-owned enterprise. Most importantly, the State controls the money supply and the lending as a bulwark against financialization. There is a lot more to it, but this is generally what he calls industrial capitalism leading to socialism. By staying focused on producing values, preventing a monied, rentier class from gaining power, development in a society will (or, at least, can) proceed on a sort of historical dialectic path towards socialism. Your idea of the turn to socialism is similar of what most Classical Economists believed. They all talked about socialism as a sort of inevitable thing that was coming, although they disagreed on exactly what that meant or how it would happen. But they all agreed that Rent, or financialization, would be the death of it. That's what the Free Market is. That's the thing that the Market should be Free from: RENT. The neoclassicists turned it completely on its head. You're talking about the CCP managing capitalism, and if you're managing capitalism to prevent financialization, you're not ideologically capitalist? Ok. I'm not saying otherwise.

Coming from a functional standpoint, China certainly isn't acting like a capitalist economy. It's not launching a bajillion wars, not installing capitalist mooks in the government, more capable of handling economic crises, etc.

China has billionaires and businesses, which is capitalistic, but on the other hand, they have authoritarianism and no democracy, which is not capitalistic
