  • You don't level a country's infrastructure and have it be globally competitive overnight. I beg you to include a crumb of materialist analysis into the equation.

    • I never said they needed to be globally competitive. If possible, I think every nation should transition to being self-serving, renewable, and entirely self-sufficient with their resources.

      Communist nations can exist unconnected to the rest of the world's trade. Look at North Korea and Cuba as examples. Not particularly nice places to live. Both nations have very little international trade, but they still exist.

      My primary point is that all of these nations are functioning communist states; although poor when compared to the rest of the world, they are still functioning. You can still get citizenship and live out your communist desires to the fullest extent of their laws. You will hate it, but you can live it.


      See, that's my problem with tankies. They're all fabulously rich. I know this since I'm in their circles and have talked to many on a personal level--yet--None of these rich kiddies actually give a shit about advancing communsim. They can give all of their vast riches and higher education to these communist states, give them that mighty dollar, that western brain, but they don't, they just refuse. Instead, they prefer to live out their days aimlessly fantasising about how nice it would be to see everything fall apart (who doesn't?) instead of putting boots to the ground and getting shit done. Most of the time they even go against their own ideals, like supporting the proxy wars of arab oil barons or hypercapitalistic Russia. For their arguments over materialism, there sure is a lack of it.

      I beg you to include some comprehension when replying--evidently lacking as you blissfully ignore my mentions of these nations' modern trade and supply, pity.
