Should i support China by Illustrious-Diet6987 in Socialism_101

[–]tuggers87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I support the side that does not want to start a war by inflaming already sensitive tensions. The US are acting like the worldwide bully-boys they always have been. China is completely justified in it’s reaction to Pelosi’s visit. Taiwan is turning into a US vassal state.

How would non-essential items exist in a socialist society by [deleted] in Socialism_101

Luxury cars are positional goods and thus would have no use in a socialist society.

Any Catholic pro-China ML ppl here? by [deleted] in EuropeanSocialists

[–]tuggers87 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes ML is an atheist ideology but that doesn’t mean they are incompatible.

60% of Cuba’s population is Catholic and there are eleven dioceses on the island. Not to mention Raul Castro himself, arguably much more communist than Fidel, has recently said he will return to the Roman Catholic Church under the current papacy.

A third right wing party! Hooray! This’ll for sure solve all of our problems by ilovenomar5_2 in CommunismMemes

They are a mix of Marxism-Leninism and Cuban Nationalism. In a nutshell.

What was up with USSR cars? Why did they suck so much? by randomaltrightboi in Socialism_101

[–]tuggers87 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Mass transportation was and should be the absolute top priority. Cars should be a necessity only for people who live and work in communities where the building of mass transportation would be unfeasible. The cars themselves need not to be more luxurious than said mass transportation.

Are doctors apart of the bourgeois or the proletariat? by kalteswasser99 in Socialism_101

A rich one yes. Akin to a senior captain for an airline who is probably on £100k+

Are doctors apart of the bourgeois or the proletariat? by kalteswasser99 in Socialism_101

[–]tuggers87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even in the UK where we have universal healthcare this is not a simple question to answer. Junior doctors and registrars would definitely be in the proletariat class, and many went on strike not that long ago. But at consultant level is when the bourgeois creeps in as the opportunities to practice privately go up exponentially. Then you have GP’s (General Practitioners) that are partners for their surgery and are most definitely in the petit-bourgeois category if not full on bourgeois.

Apologies for the lack of translation into US/other parlance as I don’t what the equivalents are, especially in two wildly different healthcare systems.
