The bourgeois elections are the least important part of politics

It isnt first past the post. It is bourgeois democracy. Things would be the same if there was one party or twenty so long as the bourgeoisie own the state.

As a transbian, fuck no it isnt, that is liberal bullshit. Marriage is a patriarchal institution.

I work in software development. Almost all modern architecture would collapse without the open source ecosystem.

Oh yea, like if you are religious you are a threat to the state and therefore you are unfit for basically any leading role, or your property might be confiscated and you might be sent of to Siberia ?

Anti religion is needlessly antagonistic but also wasn’t enforced like you are suggesting: https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/stalin/works/1920/11/13.htm

Lines for food namely bread and if the stars aligned meat.

According to the anti-communist cia their nutrition was in many ways better

Also breadlines are common under capitalism.

Big amount of corruption ?

Yes, theft from the public has definitely decreased since the the collapse. /s

Mandatory conscription to the military (and the corruption there too) ?

There are plenty of countries that do that after they lose around 20 percent of their population in a brutal war. Like Vietnam, for example.

Iron curtain ?

You mean the one the west put up? https://news.stanford.edu/2019/12/26/stalin-not-want-iron-curtain-descend/

Free speech and freedom of expression ?

Western countries have more sophisticated censorship and media apparatuses I give you that. Speak out in a real way though and look what happens to people like Fred Hampton.

Transphobic too? How surprising.

Who would have thunk the anticommunist was racist.

Also without open source the capitalist tech sector would collapse

Have you considered there are other reasons besides nostalgia? Like the massive life expectancy and qol collapse under capitalism?

Typical Russian bullshit. I hope the dwindling, future generations of Russian scum know why they’re pariahs, unable to travel outside of their smoldering wreck of a never-great, failed state

Cause honestly this comes off as incredibly racist and nationalist.

1 and 3 are pretty directly political lol

Cuba and Russia, both which exist as they exist because of US meddling. The US was directly responsible for the undemocratic dissolution of the USSR without which this war wouldn’t be happening. The US is directly responsible for cuban economic desperation as they’ve been sieging Cuba ever since the communists overthrew the US puppet dictator and installed a socialist democracy.

“Tankie” is to liberals as “woke” is to conservative liberals and fascists.

Do you think France would be cool with them wearing other garments considered modest by their culture?

I think you just missed their point, which was about the original clothing being connected to modesty culturally.

And you know how the Vietnam war ended, right?

There was a peace agreement between the north and the south, and then a few years later North Vietnam broke it and invaded again, taking over all of the country.

The US never ratified it which is important because it was their war of aggression.

So basically admitting you don’t know the actual history? Maybe start with reading a Wikipedia page or something.

Bwahahahaha

Fighting for money and fighting for revolution in a way that allows you to continue to exist assuming you’re not killed are distinct actually. Che had it set in Cuba. He chose to go risk getting killed for his humanist beliefs, not for money.

Yes, that is literally why I brought it up. Is there some subtext to this response I’m missing?
