I have to tell you something...
 

Hi guys. I have something to tell you all: I'm Communist. Yes I know what you're thinking: wtf!! Cold War!!!. Well I'm here to enlighten you all. I believe that the United States should adopt a Communist form of government. Well before you grab your torch sticks and attack me, here's why. The only reason everyone thinks Communism is bad is because the people who mainly used it did a bad job. Stalin is not an accurate representation of our community...it's like if an Asian killed someone and then people said "omg all Asians are bad!". Just look at China. They were a mess before they adopted Communism and now...ok bad example. Look at Cuba. Before they adopted Communism people didn't even know the country still existed. Now they're everywhere! Kinda. Number two: Capitalism was just as responsible for the war. And also the only reason the USSR started making bombs is because America did it first...not Communism's fault.

Now before anyone screams CAPITALISM in this thread and starts using words they don't understand I just want to let everyone know that if you don't live in Russia then you are forbidden from talking in this thread. Ok bye.

How do you know if your "communism in its purest form" works if it's never been done correctly as you say

Unfriending
Thanksbye

financial motivation

Look at Cuba they're doing just fine

Not gonna lie I didn't even know you had me friended

Boi you're the one who friended me

I'm pretty sure Cuba is slowly moving towards a market economy...

Socialism is like salt. You never want too much salt.

I don't think you should confidently embrace communism with just a 10th grade level history class

Also I don't really want the government controlling everything in the economy :/

anarchy is the best form of government

"Marx bless America"

Completely agree

True

Raised it to you have to be living in Russia

Iconic

I mean my civilisation in civ 5 is a complete dictatorship and my people are extremely happy so clearly dictatorship is the way to go

We know it's you Bernie

I was playing a SNES Sim City-esque game and 9/10ths of my town was industrial and most of my citizens had a third eye, but they were extremely happy. Industrial America ftw!

My God I really hope this is bait.

Didn't Cuba have some guy named Fidel Castro?

Perfect example

Another bad representation of Communism.

Communism in its intended form is an exelent idea.

HOWEVER: Communism in its adopted form in many countries has been disasterous for example russia and China.

These communist ideologies are placed in countries that don't usualy have a better option.

For example China Russia and Hungary which did not adopt communism too well

In the case if Cuba however Fidel Castro was not a communist monster as you Americans like to beleive.

I personally along with my family have been involved with the country.
I've seen both sides of the story so allow me to educate you.

Cuba was a Casino island where americans would go to lose money
(basically vegas)
It was the mafia who controlled the island and payed the countries leader/puppet Batista to stay out of their buisness.
Cuban citizens usualy served the American guests all day for pennies a day.
The cuban people were mistreated and impoverished by their president.

The revolutionaire Castro did the right thing to do and kicked him out.
He became president of the island for 50 years after that.
Fidel traveled to Washinton to speak with president Eisenhower however he wasn't given the time of the day.
Everytime Castro demanded for aid and protection from the States he was refused and was never even granted an audience with the president himself.

The UUSR aproached Cuba and became an ally of theirs which is why Cuba has taken its path towards Communism.

Today cubans receive a free education
They have fairly advanced medicaly
And are free from mafia/Corporations controlling them.

Castro did in fact kill people in the early years (he had to)
But so has every president of the United States of America

In the 60s America devised a plan to demolish a building full of citizens in order to fund a war against Cuba.
In the early 2000s they actualy did it but towards a different target.

In truth cuba is doing fine the only issues they face is a lack of resources due to the embargo which ruined their economy
And the billions of dollars Batista stole from the banks when he made his escape.


Sorry English isn't exactly my first language.

I guess we now know what CM means.

Dissect the Amphibian

Communism only works in theory and not in reality, you have to see that Communism is impossible to implement. Plus, when 99% of the Communist leaders were terrible people I would say Communism has an issue. That's like saying, "Well, Hitler was a bad example for us Fascists" like lolol. I bet you're the type of guy who idolizes Che Guevara but little do you know he was extremely racist and said people of African descent were born with lower intelligence than Europeans and Hispanics.

"The black is indolent and a dreamer; spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink; the European has a tradition of work and saving, which has pursued him as far as this corner of America and drives him to advance himself, even independently of his own individual aspirations."
-Che Guevara.

Oh, is he another "bad representation of Communism"?
Seems to be a recurring cycle huh

How are you all biting this very clear April Fools baiterino

I think Fulgore is right,

RIP

Liberty or Death. It's time to embrace the tenants of Libertarianism, which is undeniably the closest political party to our founding fathers. People have maximum liberty to pursue happiness through freedom as long as it doesn't impede on another's liberty and government stays where it's supposed to. The current United States government is appalling when you consider the very limited scope it was intended to have by our framers. Provide a military, the means for commerce, and create governing laws within a strict framework of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." As for communism...no, just no.

Capitalism is the worst form, except for all the others that have been tried.
