I made a moon character as counterpart to the sun. He's pale and round to represent goons and he gets pissed off when you DON'T mention nuclear power

comedyblissoption posted:the end goal should be an economy that allocates based on need and not based on markets The problem with this is that it's a very incomplete description of an economy because so much economic activity isn't based on need. For example a socdem country could be said to satisfy that criteria because everyone can get food, shelter, clothes, healthcare, education, entertainment, etc. But it's still capitalist

Ferrinus posted:a social democratic economy is still ruled by the profit motive, the stewards of the state just have the foresight and discipline to recognize that it's harder to generate profits if your population is dying of deprivation and/or in open revolt. that's why marxism is about actually seizing the means of production and controlling what gets made and for whom rather than simply extracting increasingly better deals re: health care, wages, whatever Right. That's why comedyblissoption's definition of the ultimate economy is incomplete

apropos to nothing posted:i think the big issue with stalin isnt that he or the soviet union under his leadership made mistakes, as is bound to happen to anyone and everyone. think its more that he and the soviet union killed a bunch of communists. speaking as a communist, i would like not to be killed. Isn't that one of the mistakes they made, that are bound to happen to anyone and everyone

apropos to nothing posted:if im obnoxious ill stop posting here then. only reason i do is cause lots of people in online spaces, even this one, are looking to get organized in some way and want to help in that process. namaste. I haven't read through this stuff but if you're posting in good faith keep doing it. It's intellectually healthy to have some pushback

Ardennes posted:So yeah how do you have a state without a state "bourgeoisie"? Are all authoritarian right-wing regimes fascist or is it worth to differentiate between them? The real question is how to pronounce bourgeoisie. In the entire history of leftism no theorist has been able to come up with a satisfying answer
