According to Ukraine it was uncovering the evidence of atrocities such as Bucha that ended any chance of peace talks early doors.

Uncovering mass graves of civillians is likely to do that mind you.

Are you making fun of someone for parroting US talking points, while yourself parroting Kremlin talking points?

The narcissist, most likely.

Seems like you wasted time telling me you weren't going to waste time. I guess if that's the level you are operating at I shouldn't be suprised that you're content.

How else do you propose to fix a system set up to benefit a certain class, a class which has firmly entrenched itself around the levers of power, without tearing down the whole rotten structure and starting again.

Don't pretend that you are for the current system for any other reasons than "I've got mine, Jack".

Are you ok mate?

If you can afford to set aside such a sum you are part of a group that, going by worldwide averages, is among the richest in the world.

Like a 3rd of the world live in near starvation, objectively if you can afford a vacation you are in the richest 25% in the world.

How do you change a system set up to benefit a class that is completely entrenched around the levers of power, without tearing down the whole rotten structure?

I mean the middle class are pretty adverse to the solution as well...

Why wouldn't it be?

You know what isnt a hot take? Think how much pollution the event generated, how much greenhouse gases.

Seems worth it for a party lol.

Rockets mostly use hydrogen as fuel, burning wood is way more polluting than burning hydrogren.

I think you are confusing facism and authoritarianism.

Thanks for the detailed response, you've given me a lot to think about.

So how do you envisage communism arising from a socialist state which represses its citizens?

True communism is stateless, so how can this emerge from authoritarianism?

We could use the word oppressive or repressive if you prefer?

I agree, liberals are as bad as tankies for justifying their repressive ideology

Do you think that we will see true communism ever arise from authoritarianism? I don't think that is possible.

I think that authoritarianism is a lot more palatable to the imperialists than actual communism would be, I worry that, quite apart from it being wrong to curtail civil rights, by being authoritarian a socialist state is simply dancing to the tune of the imperialists.

I don't think I'm comfortable with a central power having the authority to decide that certain groups don't have rights, that power is too often abused widely.

Thanks for the detailed response, you've certainly given me a lot to think about.

Thanks for sharing, believe it or not I am a communist myself and I agree with most of what the video said. I just don't see how communism can ever emerge from authoritarianism, because if the defence against imperialism is authoritarianism are we not still dancing to the imperialist tune?
