      There were no good guys in the cold war.

      I wish I could just completely block anything from hexbear, no matter where I go you guys are pushing your toxic agenda.

        You hate seeing hexbear users, so you took the considered and well-thought tactic of directly replying to one to whine about them. That’ll stop you from seeing more of them, for sure!

          Yes, just like glorifying oppressive states on an online forum will bring about communism!

            You must be confused, Hexbear is a forum for shitposting not bringing about communism. Real world organizing is for bringing about communism. Hope this clears that up!

            Did you know that at it’s peak the USSR gulag system had more than a million citizens imprisoned, which worked for scraps, receiving little to no pay?
            Oh wait actually that’s the US current day, my bad.

            Also posting isn’t praxis. I hope you don’t think you’re actually doing anything on this website. Organizing is for the real world!

        Lmao life expectancy rising goes brr. Women gaining independence goes brr. Advancements in the sciences goes brr. Life quality improvements goes brr. Going from a rural peasant state ruled by a monarchy to a modern country within few decades, while the same process took centuries for the capitalist states goes brr. USSR

          ? I’m not saying that they had a right to the land, in fact they just took the land for themselves. Everyone still has a right to have a home.

      I suspect the failure of viable alternatives to capitalism in the 90s resulted in the runaway scenario we see today. That doesn’t make the Soviet union good though.

        What would happen if capital succeeded in smashing the Republic of Soviets? There would set in an era of the blackest reaction in all the capitalist and colonial countries, the working class and the oppressed peoples would be seized by the throat, the positions of international communism would be lost.

        Damn, really feels like we’ve been seized by the throat

        That doesn’t make the Soviet union good though.

        even if it was “bad” (it wasn’t just to be clear) the mere threat of its existence allowed labour unions in the West to win more concession from their bosses.

        China does not have the same effect because China does not export the revolution. sicko-wistful

          100% agree. I had a much higher opinion of the soviet union before i heard how little it took to be placed in a gulag. It sounded like a toxic environment for voicing concerns at the very least. Although my sources could be biased I suppose.

          Generally competition is good for the “consumer” or citizen in this case
