Also the same for Austria, where the CIA with — with the help of the worker’s union (their president Franz Olah) and social democrats — installed GRDAGGER, funded one of the most vile tabloid newspapers and funneled union money to the rightwing party, which is now the biggest party in Austria.

You mean the elders that to a huge portion miss the USSR, because they found out that the West fucked them over with their propaganda and now they have no healthcare or housing? Sure.

Is it that easy?

1. All the key industries of China are in the hands of the state.
2. There’s no private ownership of land in China.
3. China is the only major country where the number of billionaires actively decreases.
4. China does not develop their economy with the sole purpose of profit.

Socialism is a process. Socialism isn’t communism. Socialism isn’t “the state owns everything”. Even Lenin argues that capitalists must be employed in the service of the new socialist state, but have to be suppressed under proletarian rule. I would say, that’s happening in China? And that’s what makes the blood of Western capitalists and their media outlets boil.

So I really don’t get why we shouldn’t support the biggest country that ever tried to implement communism? What do we get — except from despair — from denying the efforts China makes?

One of those countries is socialist and acitvely improving the life of their citizens. The others are not. But you sure have a good reason why to put them all in the same basket, right?

Thank you so much for that detailed and informative post! It drives you crazy to see liberals denying the genocide in Gaza while accusing China of one without evidence

Spreading lies? You sure you don’t want to go back to Reddit?

Try reading “Stalin – the History and Critique of a Black Legend”by Domenico Losurdo. And if you mind, please tell me what’s not socialist about e.g. China?

Lol complaining about tankies on lemmy?

Yikes, what kind of misogyny bullshit is this? The problem of him and his partners isn’t that they’re “used and flashy”… the problem is they’re fascists 🥴

Don’t forget Austria too!

Yes, no evidence for genocide. As reported by UN, Worldbank and Organization of Islamic Cooperation. But I‘m open to changing my opinion if you can present some facts? I‘m more than happy to provide sources if you can‘t find mine by googling.
