  1. Xesau Communism actually has been tried. The first colonies in america some of them did exactly like in communism. They ended up dying to starvation... Which seems to be common trend everywhere where people tried communism.

  3. That is because marxism is a religion. When it fails they simply say "well that wasn't true marxism". Then they have nerve to call scandinavians as socialist countries... Most of those bloody idiots don't even know what socialism is and that most scandinavian countries are capitalistic ones.

  4. Xesau "Socialism is when the workers control the (means of) production and the (means of) distribution. State-capitalism is when an authoritarian government does that. Capitalism is when the CEO's do that. " Dictionary disagrees with you. "No country ever has tried socialism. USSR? State-capitalism. China? State-capitalism. North-Korea? State-capitalism. Cuba? State-capitalism." no? They were all socialism by defination and they call called themselves as socialists. "What I do have heard is that they are social-democratic countries, that provide for the lesser so they have an equal chance at pursuing their dreams. And that is why the American dream is more realizable in Europe than in America." Not really, maybe you should actually come here before talking shit about us. PS: I have lived my entire live in scandinavia.

  5. Xesau "Communism (or what the term anarchism used to mean) can be achieved without a socialist revolution. " Correct, but socialism is still needed. You see REvolution is different from slowly turning something into something. "The name may be counter-intuitive, the system however is real and was practiced by Soviet Russia, China, North Korea and Cuba." No it's not. It was not practiced by them. It was socialism. BY definition. EVEN THEM claimed it was socialism. It's only socialists in the west who are in denial and keep refusing to acknowledge it. Because they would be forced to admit that socialism nor communism either actually works. "because there's spider in the name and he is not a spider. Like you argued state-capitalism doesn't exist because there is capitalism in the name and states are not private persons" Again dictionary is not the facts of the world its simply used to describe what some people think about certain words. State capitalism literally has no difference between socialism even between their definations. Again because people are always represented by government.
