I mean even Lenin admitted that the Soviet Union was just state capitalism so the point still counts.
Also it is still baffling to me that we could feed 10 billion people and still have whole populations that are starving.
And obviously a system that is just there to be evil will most likely not exsist. But have it as by product often occurred in systems which only focused on (the growth of) power (money is just another form of power). This includes the former west and the former east bloc.
3 examoles i could give for socialism two of them where crushed by the Soviet Union. Revolutionary Spain and the free territory of Ukraine. One which works since 10 years (while trying not to get crushed by Turkey and IS) and there are some more such free territories which therefore also democratized thier economics.
Also fuck tankies btw
Sorry for the late response but what always puzzles me how do you enforce freedom I mean these are more or less contradicting things. The only way I can imagen people getting liberated is by first liberating themselves and then cooperate with like minded individuals to create a grass roots organization that's destroys and replace the old system. And not just replacing it's leadership. I mean we tried it, but it ended up being spoiled like the former leaders/system1. ( if more or less worse is debatable) it even crushed like minded individuals in the process. What I want to say people can only be free if they want to be free and if you give them a chance to develop them freely and that the means mark the ends. I myself don't know the complete plan and picture how a revolution will happen and how it will look at the end, but I have some ideas in my Head which I will work (for example promoting an gift and library economy as well as helping some orgs) to help my comrades and support the revolution. I just ask you to not make the same mistakes that our ancestors did, comrade.
Socialist hate/fear him too, because of his imperialism, which crushed multiple more libertarian communist and socialist projects. And could you make more creative memes some are good most are trash.
Did you ever heard the term Anarchism. Or Anarchist/ libertarian socialist like Kropotkin, Bookchin etc. Or things like Rojava. Or any socialist projects which really gave what they promised, since there means marked their end?
All socialist and not slavery like most of the things you counted
Also the parts I know about Marx is actually not to bad.
Lemmy is A developed by Marxist Leninist B through it's structure and the activity pub standard it is way more appalling to Leftists than other social media platforms and C Cyberghost loves for some reason to post (mostly tankie) propaganda into this meme channel. I mean this one is a good meme many others are not
Yes and no it was an authoritarian communism system (there are many subtypes of communism and even more subtypes of socialism) also you could argue if they were communist at all depending where you standing on the autocratic-libertarian spectrum since libertarians/Anarchists would say that the point of communism is not that the state owns the means of the production but the people themselves.
I mean socialism has and dose worked for millions of people. Imho The two main points of failure are imperialistic states like USSR and USA the second thing is authoritarian systems trying to force socialism (often it is just State-capitalism) on to the working class.
Idk if it helps but a friend of mine has similar problems with depression because of the world going to shit. (Even though here problems aren't so severe). I once showed her the Solarpunk genre/Movement and it worked (at least a bit). It let a bit of sunlight and hope in her heart and she has fallen directly in love with it in the same way I did. So maybe it helps a bit looking into it and get a bit of a hope boost.
