Translation (sorry in advance if it’s bad): “Real socialism” has failed

After the Russian Revolution, these tion to a split in the labor movement into communist and Social Democratic Parties. After the October Revolution, “Socialism” introduced in Russia. The Communist Party established a dictatorship and nationalized the means of production. the Economy was centrally planned, any criticism of this policy presses and under Stalin (1878-1953) several million people were executed. This social and economic model was 1945 also the countries of East Central Europe from Bulgaria to the GDR imposed.

—————————————————————————— It also includes: -a quote from Ken’ichi Mishima a university professor in Tokyo, saying how Marxism somehow makes the proletariat even poorer and the bourgeoisie richer

  • a quote from a social democrat being against socialism

  • that Das Kapital is telling how Marx wants to create a dictatorship led by the proletariat

In my opinion they could’ve added a Goebbels quote and other Nazi officials too.
