who thinks communism is good, bad , or misunderstood? i think communism was currupt by that monster Stalin an therefore, it became hard for that form of government to be truely used as Marx had intended it.
I partially agree with the fact that, right now, a theoretical sudden transition to communism would not work in the best way, because the human kind will not get rid of the "viruses" of their capitalist past, right away..
And thats why Marx called for a global revolution. Much hope was lost when Germany did not undergo revolution after Russia
Competitive behavior derives from the state of FEAR and NEED. And these are the two columns of capitalism.. fear brings need, need bring consumption. period.
Their economy would collapse, they are getting way too many perks off the United States buying everything from them. China is developing way better and faster than it was under Mao.
That has nothing to do with communism! That is just an oppressive and corrupt government that spews propaganda about having a utopian future. Communism involves no government, no police state. Leninism on the other hand advocates how China initially got a pro-socialist party running the show.
He's explained it a million times, there is no communist government. Only a transitional government that will eventually dissolve then the poeple can govern themselves.
