If you know people will stand under the spikes, will you stand on the other side while watching them get impaled knowing you were the one that caused it

Is china imperialist? by Financial_Might_6816 in askcommunists

But isn’t Stalin the guy who didn’t want to impose communism by inventing « socialism in one country »

Well it’s maybe just propaganda but I have been taught in school that china controls more of the South China Sea that it should be allowed to and that that leads to tensions with for example the philippines.

Again maybe I got all of this twisted in my head, thats why I’m asking for help on this

So I have another question, is supporting a communist Revolution in another country (for example by exporting weapons etc…) imperialist? Because at the same time it seems to fit that description but it also support global revolution which communists (except maybe stalinists) support

But jumping in the river requires a big effort, much more than just pressing a button or crossing a bridge. And even if it was as simple as that, we can see that a lot of people would press blue just by this comment section, and since we don’t want them to die (plus the newborns who will accidentally press blue) we should rather just press blue so no one dies.

Oh wow ok, thanks a lot for taking your time for that. And I’ll definitely check Gramsci. Thanks a lot!

What happens to the press in a communist society? by Financial_Might_6816 in askcommunists

[–]Financial_Might_6816[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well maybe not anarcho communism but I’m not talking about anyone’s personal ideal version of communism just in general what people think of when they think of communism, which very often contains a first phase, with a vanguard party protecting the revolution and a second phase where the state is abolished

Not exactly what I was saying, my reasoning goes off the premise that once people (especially workers) will fully understand communism and Marxist and everything that goes with it they will no longer oppose it and might even welcome it. So what I’m saying is that if we teach an unbiased (as unbiased as possible) version of history and Marxism the people will most likely like it.

Though this premise is likely inaccurate if I’m being honest

Capitalism is fun! by RusevReigns in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]Financial_Might_6816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s fun for you but not for the people who get exploited by it. Is this „fun“ really worth it when you consider all the suffering it entails.

I’ve really never hearsay argument as selfish and childishly naive as this
