I think I speak for most everyone when I say that this isn’t based, but marginally better than the Nazis that Ukraine brings into their ranks and radicalize other troops to accept Fascist-friendly brigades. Everyone here should criticize Russia in their many faults at the same time. That’s the beauty of the Dialectical Method, we can point out shortcomings and successes and address them as they are, not how we would like them to be.
Communism is the only ideology at the present which actually gets better over time, rather than just decaying into fascism. I see a lot of anticommunists point to their past failings or current flaws and there's a reason they ignore things like plans for the future; because it would make them look like a nazi. They can almost frame themselves as the antifascists even while all their actions point towards a fascist future.
That's a very good point. Libs say, 'How can you be a communist, don't you know how bad it was when people tried it?'
(Ignoring the fact that it has always been good, actually, on balance.) The answer is, 'Unlike capitalists, we have no reason to do what failed before.'
Hence why China, Cuba, Vietnam, Laos, DPRK have their own problems—but almost none of which are the same as those that happened in the USSR.
It's only liberals who say, 'This is capitalism, tough shit if you don't like it, things will get better in however many years. And yes, we plan to do all the stuff that's always been horrific, thank you. No, I don't understand contradiction, why do you ask?'
As that's built into the bourgeois outlook, they simply cannot comprehend how differently communists think.
I think next round we should take everyone's toothbrush.
“Stealing the toothbrushes is merely Phase 1, Mr. Bond. Little do you know that I have already initiated Phase 2 of my diabolical plan! You fancy yourself a… sexually aroused fellow, wouldn’t you, old chap? Perhaps, dare I say… Horny? Well, my horny British friend, I implore you to see my demonstration. We shall send top officers of mine to follow people around with Horny-Bonk-bats! And everyone will be FORCED to be VolCel!!! Evil Laughter”
