Is there anything good to be found in Communism

Marxism, Bolshevism, etc. - is all of it garbage?

I don't particularly mean with regards to ruling a state since that seems to not be successful, but is there anything actually insightful in socialist writings? Recommendations pls.

No.

It is the future, so you either adapt it or you get shot

USSR put the first man in space only a few decades after being a piss poor unindustrialized country. That counts for something, right?

Nothing good.

But is it necessary?

That is the question.

It's not voluntary exchange like in capitalism, by which I mean it cannot work without a feudal network of oppression. The people then become peasants in the hands of communist party secretaries of various levels who have absolute power. We are kind of still being run with the same mentality, unfortunately. Countries to the east are even worse, they live under neo feudalism.

Socialism is literally an excuse for genocide
Real communism is anarchy where you have to use mob violence to get your share of the breadloaf
Social Market Capitalism like we have in Germany and Sweden is tax dollar plundering
Marxism is tyrannical oppression and nothing else
Bolshevism is the act of mobilizing a Jewish tribe to go around and kill people for no reason

It's funny that most Hungarians only fled during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and not during their communism years

>It's funny that most Hungarians only fled during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and not during their communism years

Because of the revolution temporarily there was a deficit of machine gunners willing to gun down fleeing people on the western border so people could finally flee. Can you understand that?

Ban of all religions and atheistic moral education.

With German technology.

That's not what the fleeing looked like. They emigrated in the normal way

Power fantasy for weak nerds who will get 'removed' when a actual communist revolution gets to take place.

I guess Tsiolkovskiy and Korolev were Germans. And Germans invented Katyusha. And the most prominent German scientists weren't working for USA and still lost.

What was the Berlin Wall for, you idiot? People were not allowed to emigrate under communism. In 1956 they fled to Austria and then traveled from there.

Read about Helmut Gröttrup and the captured V-2 production sites.

Sure, they used some German tech. But so did the Americans and even more so. Except Americans didn't have their whole country reduced to ruins and haven't lost 30 million people during the biggest war in history.

Dont be jealous of the Saturn rocket Ivan.

Why would I?

The Soviet state was an army with a country. It spent almost all its resources on those rockets and other military technology. Considering that it wasn't such a big achievement.

> haven't lost 30 million people during the biggest war in history.

It's not America's fault that the communists destroyed your country and couldn't fight efficiently. They had the manpower and the equipment but the officers were purged.

They spent a lot on those rockets because they were crucial for getting nuclear ICBMs to be able to strike US and thus survival. And it wasn't even that big expenditure comparatively. US also spent tons of money on NASA at the time.
>blabla
Suffice to say that 2/3 casualties were civilians and the military deaths aren't much higher than the total axis casualties on the eastern front. I'm not in the mood to argue with a butthurt beltian but that's besides the point. The point is we were still first in space after sustaining huge losses.

Some of the social/cultural theories and writings of Marx & Engels are quite intriguing and insightful. Also, Marxist frameworks to understanding social phenomena can be useful from time to time (ultra economic/material focus).

We get to mock north korea

National Socialism is way better than your petty communism

They put her there before you.

It wasn't about survival. They were planning to build world communism.

> And it wasn't even that big expenditure comparatively.

It was 90% of the economy. While the country looked like North Korea. You should stop defending that evil regime, bro.

> and the military deaths aren't much higher

The military deaths were much higher. Civilians died and Germans occupied half your country because you couldn't defend it with more men, tanks and planes.

No, there isn't. Also this is a slide thread. Sage

that isnt a good thing
vaginas should stay on earth so they cant fuck up space government
