I’ve been speaking with other more informed communists and they’ve told me that none actually exist. Is this true?
China, Laos, and Vietnam: now notoriously capitalists. Workers work 12+ hours with no protection in horrible factory conditions. Suicide rates are so high that suicide nets are installed. The air is so polluted millions die from lung cancer, especially factory workers w/out basic masks. Corporations dominate
North Korea: Undemocratically ruled by the Kim dynasty. Jong un indulges lavishly at the expense of his citizens, ordering millions in fine wine and trips from Denis Rodman. They might be the most socialist though, as Juche seems to otherwise be democratic.
Cuba: Sanctions have taken a massive toll, but even taking that into account the country still has its own problems. They have massive food shortages and inventory probs and aren’t self sufficient after 60+ years. Why couldn’t they’ve use machinery imported from the Soviet Union to develop their agriculture and fishery? The Soviets supported them heavily. They seem to be incredibly mismanaged or corrupt
I haven’t dodged any questions, lol. I’m being very direct with you. You may want to take a moment to ask whether you are projecting, as your pattern in this conversation has been to ignore basically everything I say and literally every question I’ve asked and to instead try to belabor the point you really want to make, thigh you’re too afraid to state it directly. It’s very clear that you want to stay in your comfort zone, which is apparently silly tropes about North Korea, and no realities or other humans you’re talking to are gonna get in the way of that!
You might as well just talk to yourself, since it’s only your voice you want to hear.
Nope you have shown yourself to be here in bad faith and I’m not going to explain such a large topic to you until you figure out how to be honest with me (and probably yourself). Or maybe you can pay me to tutor you - combative, ignorant students cost extra btw.
Before you reach for your crutch of a “dodge”, remind yourself that at no point have I offered to do the thing you seem to feel entitled to, which is for me to answer all of your questions while you ignore everything I tell you. I’m not your parent or your teacher, I’m not obligated to share knowledge that you refuse to digest.
PS I’ve said basically nothing about the CPC. I would recommend that you figure out how to communicate around one topic before expanding them. You already can’t keep track of what I’ve said about North Korea or>!!< democracy.
Stop being disingenuous. “I am personally offended and I refuse to answer your question” is a dodge, not a response.
You just said you were okay with vocal criticism of the government, so how about it? To what degree should people be allowed to vocally criticize their government?
lol, you think I’m offended? I’m really just bored. I’ve been giving you chance after chance to engage just in case, but it eventually gets tedious - and indicates that good faith is not something you respond to. You seem to engage much more directly with people in this thread that you think you have bothered. Ask yourself if that’s a healthy thing to do.
It’s funny that you haven’t learned that I don’t actually care about your attempts at goading, either. Refer to my previous response to your question.
And I’ve given you a chance for you to explain how you are okay with criticism of the government, but when it comes to North Korea and the CCP you have suddenly gotten quiet.
Do you want to walk back your statement, and say that you are against criticism of the government? That is probably more in line with your actual beliefs.
Consult my previous answer, as you seem to have had trouble reading it.
You never answered.
Oh I did, just not with the kind of answer you wanted. Poor baby.
You dodged the question so hard you would make a politician blush. If you’re afraid of the questions, just say so.
You’ve got such Reddit brain that you think someone directly telling you no is a dodge, lol
