Part 2/9:
Historically, Marxism has the dubious distinction of failing in grand experiments — primarily in the Soviet Union, Cuba, and Venezuela. These implementations showcased severe flaws, leading to political and economic disasters that thrust millions into poverty and shortened lives. Each attempt at Marxist doctrine provides a cautionary tale, effectively leading to catastrophic societal outcomes. To this day, advocates of Marxism point to these failures as anomalies rather than lessons, maintaining the argument that true Marxism has never been correctly practiced.
