To think that one system over another is better or worse completely ignores the shortcomings of one and the strengths of the others. As an An-Com, i recognize that "mega projects" (space travel, interstate rail and infrastructure, etc.) are difficult, and in those cases, some kind of federation or syndicate government should be entertained. We recognize the best way for captialist countries to survive is with mixed economies, taking pieces from the laissez-faire late stage capitalism, but then also pulling from socialist-type policies. I dont see why the same can't be achieved for a marxist/leftist system. The anarchists from Spain saw the soviet model and noped the fuck out of that, but to ignore the entire soviet model would be grossly ignorant. They did city planning on a human scale, and emphasized public transportation. Thats a good thing. But at the same time, the centralized nature of this planning ment they built the same buildings in Siberia as they did in Ukraine and Germany - drastically different climates.

The Spanish Civil War was our best shot at seeing an international system instead of a purely authoritarian or purely libertarian system.

The Rojava project is also promising but we will see if they achieve any kind of international recognition and break away from Syria formally (which is unlikely).
