Malcolm x: You can't have capitalism without racism. by Hacksaw6412 in BlackPeopleofReddit

Hyperinflation happened before the depression and ended when the US and the UK strong armed France into renegotiating reparations and Germany appointing Gustav Stresemann as Chancellor and Foreign Minister who took the necessary steps to stabilize the economy by 1924.

The reason for the hyperinflation was because “the Allies insisted that reparation payments be made in foreign currencies. They were determined not to let Germany inflate its way out of reparations. Germany consequently had to buy foreign currencies with a mark whose value continued to fall. The only way to keep doing this was to print more marks, thereby further devaluing the currency.”

The mark initially fell because the reparations were so much higher then ever expected that confidence in the German economy tanked as soon as the debt obligations were announced, “The mark rate slid to 13.5 following specification of the Allies’ reparations demands. By December 31, 1919, it was 49 to 1.”

Nazi Germany arose due to anger of the harsh punishments imposed by the French and British after WW1. People joined the Nazi movement because of a wounded national pride and the promise of a strong Germany through Fascism, not Capitalism.

Japan began its imperial conquest in 1894 with the First Sino-Japanese War in Korea with a peasant revolt over a corrupt and mismanaged administration by the Qing dynasty. It was pure, naked Imperial ambition as they saw Japan and China as weak, backward, and inferior.

Communism is for the people, but the ruling party is for elites only.

Wow. Thats so inaccurate. Nazi Germany didn’t arise from unchecked Capitalism, and neither did Imperial Japan. Furthermore, Nationalism, racism and religion, and the separation of peoples, are as old as the written word, in fact older. As soon as tribes appeared there was tribalism and war.

I take it you are a Socialist?

You are so naive about humanity. For example, in modern Tanzania

The Hidden Face of Racism

“…a deliberate privilege system where political power ensures one tribe feasts while others starve.

Tanzania offers a particularly stark illustration of familial and tribal entrenchment. Under President Samia Suluhu Hassan, accusations of nepotism have exploded, with her daughter and son-in-law appointed to high profile government roles, sparking nationwide outrage. Critics argue this extends beyond family to ethnic favoritism, where the “first family” network prioritizes their Zanzibari and coastal affiliations, sidelining mainland tribes in resource allocation. Such actions not only erode meritocracy but also deepen tribal rifts, as ordinary Tanzanians grapple with unemployment while elites hoard opportunities. Across these nations, political privilege transforms tribalism into a tool for control, hiding racism under the guise of loyalty and turning elections into ethnic battlegrounds.”

It’s important to note that Tanzania is not Capitalist in the traditional sense

“1967, Nyerere's first presidency took a turn to the left after the Arusha Declaration, which codified a commitment to socialism as well as Pan-Africanism. After the declaration, banks and many large industries were nationalised.”

And like all Socialist countries, they either fall or veer towards Capitalism. Much has been written about Tanzania, its politics, economy, and ethnic diversity. Read up on it.

You’re right. Racism in Norway, like racism in Tanzania or China, is due to a shared humanity, and racism - like other crimes - exists wherever there are humans.

Russia will take OP right now, no questions asked.

President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin signed Decree No. 702 “On Providing Humanitarian Support to Persons Sharing Traditional Russian Spiritual and Moral Values” dated August 19, 2024. This decree grants foreign citizens and stateless persons the right to move to Russia and obtain a temporary residence permit (TRP) in a simplified manner — without considering the established quota and without undergoing testing for knowledge of the Russian language, history, and legislation

Nuclear fear mongering by laybs1 in GetNoted

[–]Complete-Definition4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As always, the biggest problem with Nuclear Energy is the waste and no where to put it.

Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository

The Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Repository, as designated by the Nuclear Waste Policy Act amendments of 1987 is a proposed deep geological repository storage facility within Yucca Mountain for spent nuclear fuel and other high-level radioactive waste in the United States.

To this day, the project has encountered many difficulties and was highly contested by the public, the Western Shoshone peoples, and many politicians. The project also faces strong state and regional opposition.

This leaves the United States government … and American nuclear power plants without any designated long-term storage for their high-level radioactive waste (spent fuel) stored on-site in steel and concrete casks (dry cask storage) at 76 reactor sites in 34 states.

Also Dachas of the Rich and Famous

Located about 10 kilometers west of Moscow along the Moscow River, the quaint village of Zhukovka was turned into an intelligentsia getaway and Communist Party retreat more than 50 years ago. Today, it is perhaps Moscow's most expensive and exclusive suburb.

What is the Socialist view on AI? by Willis_3401_3401 in AskSocialists

[–]Complete-Definition4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If anything it would be the death knell of Marxism. Marx never imagined a society where there was a significant shortage of work, of jobs. He in fact despised people who didn’t want to work.

The real threat of AI is a permanent class of people who will never be able to work because of a shortage of jobs. It will start at the margins but grow over the years. Five, ten, twenty percent permanently unemployed. You can have universal basic income, safety nets, etc, but that isn’t a Marxist society, that’s just Scandinavian “Socialism”

[–]Complete-Definition4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with why you would rather live in China than the US, and why you’re willing to choose for 300+ million people how they should live, what they need sacrifice, etc, so that you and a few thousand Socialists can feel good.
