socialism can work and i dont think dictatorships/corruption is a socialist thing come on.

Everything can lead to corruption and the most brutal dictatorships in history have been capitalist ones. Nothing is perfect but socialism has a pretty amazing track record when it comes to boosting living standards for working people.
I wanna get on board but why did Stalin feel the need to ethnically cleans so many peoples from their native lands

To stop collaborative efforts with the nazis but iirc it doesn’t pass for ethical cleansing regardless

The karachays, the balkars, Chechens, Ingush, Meskhetian Turks, Kalmyks, etc weren't all collaborating with the Nazis. But they did all get shipped off their ancestral lands to Siberia and central Asian work camps did they not?

most white dudes were moving crazy from 1920-1950, but idk if that's a testament to how the economic system of socialism could benefit the material conditions of everyone

They weren’t all collaborating but there was evidence of significant support and conscription to the freshly arrived nazi forces in the thousands in some of those regions ie autonomous republics. Trying to deport or figure out who was collaborating with who would be much closer to ethical cleansing because it would basically bring back ethnicity-based pogroms on behalf of the government. I think it’s a f***ed up situation but a lot of s*** back then was that way
I’ll link u the paper I read about this when I’m on laptop
marxists.org/archive/bland/1993/07/enforced-resettlements.pdf this is what i read, mostly additional information on the subject
Why do most western leftists lie about china being socialist? Is it cause they dont actually know what socialism is per Marx’s definition?
once the global south kickstarts revolution en masse, how can socialists in the u.s. realistically offer support when all we've seen from them this century is theoretical debates ad infinitum instead of praxis, bark no bite 'nonprofit' orgs already infiltrated by gov intelligence, stratified rainbow coalition, ineffective protests with no ulterior strategic wins, 0 mutual aid safety net(works) for the lumpenproletariat on strike, unionized complacency, myopic class war focus that doesn't reckon with anti-Blackness, 2nd amendment apprehension and the ouroboros of a mutually beneficial corrupt two party system that co-opts any trending leftist mode of thought?
The American people are comprised of 80% racist pro imperialist stooges who dont care about capitalist oppression. We gotta stop this myth that the west is some leader of progressivism. Most Americans wouldnt sacrifice a thing for the benefit of the working class
There's only 5 socialist countries on Earth, 3 of which are more nominally socialist than structurally. The other 2, North Korea and Cuba, are real socialist states. I would not want to live in the former due to culture shock, I would love to live in the latter but I am banned from moving there.
Why are you banned

this isn't a leftist thing at all it's liberal (centrist) at best and right wing at worst.

People that consider themselves socialists and marxists often do frame China as still being in the process of "socialist transition" i.e moving towards communism
But for that to be the case there has to be significant moves towards a socialist path and I don't consider them really doing that to a significant degree. Theyre just doing trade and international investment its just still capitalism, just with a legacy of communism theyre holding onto
libs and conservatives (aka both right wingers) just think communism = authoritarianism and dont really think about what words mean or have any historical context to whats happening around them
anyway so
I'd honestly just read Marx. He distinguishes very easily between asceticism and socialism. Socialism has never been traditionally conflated with living a mediocre, overly modest, and/or precarious life. It just is also not about luxuriance and domination. Socialism is mostly meant, above all else, to transcend capitalism upon it reaching a very mature stage of development. Otherwise capitalism will, as we are seeing now, either destroy our planet, or our species, or both.
What is a mediocre life though? Imperialism requires half of the globe to live in abysmal conditions. Is it then moral for westerners to enjoy the fruits of exploitation? Especially when trying to dictate morals to the third world
Don’t feed the troll I’m surprised bro ain’t banned for flooding every single thread with this dumb s***
