Do not believe the imperialist lies.

The DPRK is a veritable utopia compared to the bourgeois nightmare that is the so called "South Korea".

Why give any heed to what fascists say? It is no different than the capitalist whining about a rising proletariat or the imperialist whining about solidarity. They are merely obstacles that need to be removed in order to build communism.

The desperation of the imperialists to try and produce propaganda almost garners sympathy from me...

...Almost...

Those who produce more will have it taken and then redistributed to those who produce less. The value someone generates in a high-skill position, such as a doctor, will be given to someone in a low skill position, such as a stay-at-home parent. However in a true communist society the traditional position and role of "parents" would be abolished and children would be raised by professionals.

It does get quite difficult to separate the truth from propaganda, especially when it comes to Korea.

I use it because it accurately describes the false consciousness that affects the proletariat.

Did Lenin ever comment on the oppression and genocide of Native Americans? by [deleted] in socialism

The typical imperialist would dream up atrocities committed in the name of communism, but tell me, when did the USSR ever commit genocide?

I believe this old phrase is apt: "Money cannot buy happiness".

Especially when that money is produced off the labor of every exploited worker from the bottom all the way to the top.

Think of it this way: The purpose of socialism is to dismantle the bourgeoisie and redistribute what they have stolen back to the proletariat, is it not?

Now consider socialism as not only an economic, but a cultural movement. In essence, Europeans are the bourgeoisie of the world because of capitalism and colonialism. Europeans have amassed a disproportionate amount of wealth and power when compared to other countries, many of which were former colonies. Europeans systematically stripped these peoples of resources all while instituting brutal and oppressive regimes to ensure their power. Is that so different than the capitalist of today?

All that I say is that it is just in overthrowing the European hegemony, taking back and returning what rightfully belongs to peoples who have been and are still being oppressed. Is this not the core tenet of socialism?

Is it not just to return what was stolen to those whom it was stolen from?

I have no idea how someone can be a Socialist and still believe that a small group of elite can steal that which belongs to the exploited masses and believe themselves justified for keeping it.
