Well... BUT people cannot be trusted "to contribute what they can and take only what they need". Until people stop being people, Socialism and Communism will never happen. When the children grow up, they will see this more clearly.

Besides massive government corruption at all levels the USSR had difficulty with production. To each according to his ability resulted in a less productive society. Always the end result of Socialism.

@@adventuresnorthwest3643 The problems of the USSR had to do with its competition with the United States. Their influence globally was drastically smaller than that of the US and was not founded on exploitation, so they simply couldn't compete. But they weren't left much choice as the US saw the success of the anti-bourgeoisie principle as an existential threat to its own credibility, hence needed to make the USSR fail by any means necessary. Ignoring the embargo's, propaganda and other aggressive anti-communist campaigns of the US, the USSR had to juggle its resources in both military and public welfare, all while rebuilding its economy from the globally unprecedented devastation WW2 had caused due to being the main theater of war unlike the rather uninvolved US. To do this most of its income had to come from the state capitalism, which created a dependency on the very system and corruption it paradoxically sought to abolish. It was the confounding public discontent after Afghanistan sunk it into an economic depression that the USSR collapsed. So ironically(not really), the downfall of the USSR had to do with its capitalist remnants that the US ensured to stay in place. It was not socialism, but the lack thereof that condemned it to economic collapse. In fact in every area were the USSR was socialized, which is to say public facilities(transport, healthcare, education), housing and essential needs, it was far superior to the United States.

IT'S A PURE SCAM! THE SOCIALISM GIVES MORE POWER TO THE GOVERNMENT. THE COMMUNISM TAKES POWER AWAY FROM THE POWERFUL BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES IN CORPORATIONS. THEN THE GOVERNMENT SWOOPS IN AND TAKES IT. CORPORATIONS AND RICH COMPANIES ARE BAD BUT YOU DON'T WANT TO BE RULED BY A GOVERNMENT THEY ARE HORRIBLE. THESE CORPORATIONS DON'T OWN YOU, WHEN GOVERNMENTS TAKE OVER THEY OWN YOU. IN AMERICA IT'S PRETTY BAD FOR THE POOR AND LOWER CLASSES, BUT THE GOVERNMENT CAN'T JUST COME AND TAKE EVERYTHING YOU WANT UNLESS YOU BORROWED MONEY AND DIDN'T PAY BACK.

Socialism in one country was his ideology

Debatable, Stalin's specific plans for modernising the USSR could be called Stalinism, although it's very silly for anyone who isn't living in 20th century Russia to claim to be a 'Stalinist'

Can you please point out where Marx prescribed dictatorship? If you can't, then you can't call Stalin a "marxist" - spoileralert: You can't. Two giant propaganda-machines have upheld the notion that the USSR was a communistic endeavour: The sovjets - in order to gain legitimacy within, and the US - to scare the world.

Brandon he said that because he didn't agree with the Frankfurt school of thought that espoused cultural marxism and personally called himself a scientific socialist, not a marxist. You my friend are deliberately miss quoting him to further your agenda.

+A Revolutionary Fox Forgive me, I did not mean to imply that. I just think it’s funny that he said that at all.

Brandon oh sorry, nah it's fine. I thought you were a right wing shill trying to straw man marxism.

A Revolutionary Fox : As a communist I also think we should abandon the terms "marxist" or "marxian". To me, Marx was as useful to the communist movement as Gracchus Babeuf or Peter Kropotkin... And it makes us look like a sect^^

A Revolutionary Fox lmao the Frankfurt school didn't even exist in Marx's time. In 1880 Marx was assisting French socialists in writing the program for the Worker's party of France. Marx did help the party in writing the program but had some serious disagreements with them. Marx had issues with demanding better work conditions and wages from the bourgeoisie. This is where the quote comes into proper context. Marx wanted to destroy the idea that if demanding such reforms from the capitalists is believed to be mainstream Marxism, then he is not a Marxist. "Cultural Marxism" academically speaking, is defined by 3 groups of neo-marxist theorists (labelled The Frankfurt School's 'Cultural Marxism', The Birmingham School's 'British Cultural Marxism', and E.P. Thompson's 'Thompsonian Cultural Marxism') - all of whom critiqued aspects of "mass culture". The Frankfurt School started it all by describing The Culture Industry. Adorno writes things like this in his critique of The Culture Industry: "The dependence of the most powerful broadcasting company on the electrical industry, or of the motion picture industry on the banks, is characteristic of the whole sphere, whose individual branches are themselves economically interwoven." They were the first thinkers to realize there was a 'corporate media' which pushed it's own corporate values and agenda. Adorno says things like: "The Culture Industry not so much adapts to the reactions of its customers as it counterfeits them." The Frankfurt School didn't like pop-culture at all, the Culture Industry Wikipedia page says "Adorno and Horkheimer especially perceived mass-produced culture as dangerous to the more technically and intellectually difficult high arts" - so they believed pop-culture was a risk to Western Civilization. The Birmingham School came after The Frankfurt School and quite liked British Working Class culture. The founders of The Birmingham School were WW2 vets, and their complaints focused on the 'cultural drift' away from the strong, local, community based cultures which they loved, and towards a more bland globalized culture (a process they called "massification"). Other theorists such as Max Horkheimer (of The Frankfurt School) rallied against the application of science without morality. He called this "instrumental reason" and took the Kantian moral position that reason without morality could cause nightmares (such as the application of science during the Holocaust). The Frankfurt School were big against the Holocaust, and contributed to the Nuremberg Trial - which later led to the creation of modern medical ethics boards. This has all somehow been misconstrued as their attack on Western Civilization - even though The Frankfurt School were specifically trying to protect the arts from pop-culture. Later Frankfurt School theorists such as Jurgen Habermas, and Nancy Fraser have specifically critiqued things like Post-Modern relativism and even Identity Politics. The term "Cultural Marxism" has since become a right wing misrepresentation of the (left wing) Frankfurt School. It's now tied into the theory they were "International Jewish Communists" trying to "Destroy American Academia and Hollywood". You can judge whether that's true for yourself.

Well, sharing is caring as I always say...

@@joebidenisapedophile moron identified^^ oh, the irony

Milith Dheerasekara um no i dont think communism is a good idea

@@milithdheerasekara6957 he's literally right

There is a Natural law, popularly known as the 80/20 principle. It's a natural law because till now it has always manifested itself in all fields of Reality. And one of the fields is Economics. The minority of the population will always hold the Majority of wealth and the Majority will always own the minority of wealth. Carl Marx observed this in all Capitalistic economies and created a system he thought would avoid this major flaw. And Marxism did just that. No longer did the 20%(or less) own 80% of wealth. Now, only 1% owned almost everything. In short, a state will always be divided into a small number of rich and a large number of poor. Why? It's a natural law. How? I don't know.

@@rajatsinghbhandari9549 How? The possible answer is that the human intelligence varies and the range of this variation is quite large. Also there are different types of intelligence. Not all of them are equally effective to pruduce goods and services. For example a man with higher interpersonal intelligence is good at understanding and interacting with people. So he has a better potential to create an industry than a man with higher philosopical intelligence. Now it will be very stupid and unjust to forcefully bring them at a similar economic class. The person who can produce more for the society will earn more that's the right thing to do. And many brilliant person will remain poor just because their intelligence is not able to generate that much for others. And wealth is nothing but cumulative income of multiple generations. Wealth didn’t come from sky. One valid arguement is that why people should inherit the total property of their parents. Its true that incompetent people get lucky this way without having any real ability. This is the thing i don’t understand. Should a person have wealth which he could not earn otherwise?

@@Lonestar10443 Yeah, I agree that inequalities are natural and equality is impossible and that explains why the 80/20 rule applies to Humans. But that doesn't explain why it works elsewhere, like space or nature. And why inheritance? Because most parents love their children and want them to live an easy life and money helps with that.

Communism works that way

@i get it what decision? And the tyranny starts when government takes the wealth of your ancestors from you and give it to the people who never earned it at the first place. I will never work hard in a socialist country so that the gov can take my money from my children and others get benefited with it.

@@fairy5668 true. I think that if people would know what communism is really about, the vast majority would agree with that school of thoughts. Because at the end of the day, it is about freedom, justice and fraternity.

@@MsMattmatt24 Freedom and fraternity? Hardly. Communism enslaves people through the subjugation and ownership of their labor.

@@slicemf5347 Why are you using spoons as your analogy? For your one example with spoons I can counter with hundreds of examples where people take more than they need if it is free, such as houses, food, clothing, water, wood, oil, etc. Also, there will never be abundance, the best we can do is let a free market allocate resources most efficiently.

@@amarmesic7170 I mean its probably because those things mean more to a capitalist society. More houses and all seems like more wealth, which leads to higher social standing and it starts to compound into more wealth over time. In a socialist society having enough IS enough and you get more from experiences, rather than materials, equally. Like how everyone could be allocated vacation with the choice of doing anything. so someone can actually afford a cruise where in a capitalist society theyd never could. Its not really possible tho Im just playing devil's advocate. edit: also im oversimplifying it.

Everything, including "experiences," costs money, or some other resource. There exists no society where all, nay, most of its members won't take more resources than they know they need. And that's not accounting for those people who really do think they need more than they actually do.

You're describing a system that doesn't eliminate greed, but instead requires greed to be eliminated before it will work.

They've been lied to... they are people conned and keep regurgitating that lie in stubborn ignorance, and due to a life of cowardice, and a Socialistic biased education system, they foolishly democratically vote for their continuing Socialism... Thinking they're capitalists in a "Social Democracy", but are a model of guinea pigs for the oligarchical Globalist agenda. I'm not going to contribute to their delusions... "Globalism" is passive-aggressive Communism.

Mark Lewis they definitely aren’t, they are what would be called social democracies which are capitalist

@@drewkavi6327 ... I understand why you are saying that, but I assure you, the aggregate of Capitalism and Socialism is Communism. The enormous taxes levied on the Sweeds for example is just a renaming the Socialistic program. The Sweeds are a model for the Passive-aggressive Communism taking over the world... It's called Globalism. Please, don't listen to anyone... Learn what they all are (Capitalism, Socialism, Communism, Republic, and Democracy.) Don't take my word for it, your teachers word, or the video.. Learn for yourself and you will see I am telling you the truth. They want you to listen to them... I want you to discern and decide on your own by learning for yourself... I have every confidence and believe in you to come to the right educated decision. That should tell you something.

Then let's do what they do.

@@cax1175 ... No, they are not the example to follow, but are the myrmidons whom blindly follow their Socialism and globalism. You don't understand what Socialism is if you want it Socialism is dependence on government handouts. The government controls all the money and resources produced by the people... The government determines who gets what, if anything at all. In the history of your government, have they been honest good stewards of the money, or wasteful, corrupt, power hungry fat cats? You don't want Socialism, and you definitely don't want "The New Communism" called Globalism.

🥳🥳🥳

how so?

@@thatgoodstuff1986 Communism assumes a single society. No national borders. Is essentially a global movement, just as Marxism was.

@Rade Knezevic That is not correct. Marx manifesto was clear: "Workers of the world, unite!" This is the main reason why the "enemy" of Communism/Marxist Socialism is National Socialism (Nazism, Facism, etc). They agreed on the Socialism but Nationalism was incompatible with the global nature of Communism/Marxism.

@Rade Knezevic I'm talking about Marxism. What Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Hitler and any other Socialist thought is irrelevant here. Marx was a Communist and Communism is only possible at a global Scale. For him Socialism was just a temporary step, but since the final objective was global, his Socialism was international. This is fact. It is explicit in his writing - I read them all.

Yeah that doesn’t make them communist, they were a state with money and class.

yeah adding a "democratic" onto its title doesn't make it a democratic country

We meet again forsooth.

If there is a server, that is.
