Did we not learn?
The title might not be extremely respectful but, as a slightly right leaning person from former USSR, how are there modern day communists that believe that a Marxist world could exist? Russia, china, all examples of how it goes. It is an idealistic world you are trying to live in, is it not? is modern day communism outside of former USSR countries just a label for someone who would like it to be that way but knows it doesn’t work or do you genuinely believe that it could work? I’m honestly really confused, since my country is pretty middle, and I feel like that is the best way to go about things in modern society. Some of modern communists are seriously uplifting a regime that gaslighted my parents into thinking that they were well off in comparison to other countries, whilst they barely had any idea that there were wonders out there in the west during the 70s-80s. It was hell, no Ine had money for anything, everyone is to this day scared of any change, the buildings, the neighbours turning on you and telling the police, Jan Palach, do people in the west really not know the hell that communism is in practice?
