Socialism and communism are terrifying political systems for a population, it is a corrupt system, failure that the only thing it does is bring poverty to society and riches to those who hold the power of the country. I am from Venezuela, where a socialist government has taken a rich country to the point where its people have to eat of the trash.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
communism is worker control of the means of production, and many anarchist forms exist.
the ussr was more democratic than the united states
and capitalism is the most destructive system in history
also Venezuela is capitalist lmao, they have more private industry than most countries in europe
Yeah, Venezuela went more the socialist route... Though China is also allegedly communist, but they've propped that up for years with several capitalist city states such as Hong Pong, Singapore, and Shanghai.
Not surprising... communism without currency, capitalism, etc though it technically is not communism ONLY works on very small scales such as hippy communes. Too many variables for the arrogant power mad central planners to accurately track.
They become the worst aspects of what they like to decry about capitalism. They essentially become large government mandated monopolists plantations. Viva Slavery!
social democracy is not socialism lmao, its capitalism with a happy face drawn on it

Yeah... yeah nothing is ever socialism or communism with guys like you EXCEPT when it works briefly before it implodes.
Venezuela was the poster child of success for Socialism for a couple of years from people of your ilk until it imploded as they always do.
Good ideas don't require force.
Force = Slavery.
Communists and Socialists can take their ideology and shove it where the sun doesn't shine as far as I'm concerned. I'll continue to feel that way until they can come up with a REAL/FACTUAL way it can be done without force and 100% voluntarily.
You have my sympathy and support. I know quite a few people from Venezuela here on Steemit and this is a common thing I hear from them.
It is also sad that the only countries in the EU that are resisting a lot of the EU trends are those that were part of the communist block to during the time of the U.S.S.R. People who have been there, and done that, and don't want to do it again.
It is only a bunch of fools that can't learn from history, and truly think things through that are repeating the same paths, and same arguments that have already been walked.
Thank you very much for your solidarity, really feeling the empathy of other nationals is a great help, does not make us feel alienated or rejected by the rest of the world.
It is a pity that we as humans do not learn from our past mistakes, we suffer from lack of memory, which leads us to make the same mistakes without even realizing it. It seems that it is a mistake of all humans in the world, we must move forward and take into account our past to make a better future. Thanks friend, I'm following you to see you more often by Steemit
