@AppleAmps is chinese communism even communism right now
@shroomie @AppleAmps it has been Not-Capitalism, but it’s never really been communism
@FawnOverFun @AppleAmps yeah that’s what i thought
@FawnOverFun @AppleAmps has any country ever done “true communism?” the giants of the world, china and the ussr, haven’t/didn’t.
@shroomie @AppleAmps as far as i know every attempt at real communism has been fiercely destroyed within 1-2 years of it coming about in any given country. i think there was a post soviet state that had a glorious 1.5 years of communism before they were killed and made subservient
@AppleAmps @FawnOverFun oh i didn’t know he counted as quite communist
@AppleAmps @FawnOverFun true communism has never been achieved because either the necessary revolutions and government got co-opted by the corrupt, capitalists saw what was going on and decided to squish them, or maybe also because it’s kinda hard to form a modern government around the words of men who died before the first world war
