    why do they have to sanction those countries if communism is doomed for failure by its own lack of merit 🤔

    If socialism can eliminate poverty, beat Covid, eradicate mother-to-child HIV transmission, come up with the world’s most progressive Family Code, construct 2/3 of all high-speed rail on Earth and quadruple its renewable energy capacity within 15 years, rebuild Africa and Latin America, bring peace to the Middle East, land robots on the far side of the moon, and dominate the maths and science olympiads as a “failing ideology”, just imagine what it is capable of once it succeeds

    what do you see in a “failing” rebellion of a “failed” ideology that you so desire?

    Hope

      The Liberals always change the definition of words to frame successful Communism as successful example of Capitalism despite the pro-longed sanction by the Liberals with the Bretton Woods institutions that function as the de facto world government against the “successful example of Capitalism”. The constant redefinition of words by the Liberals is the reason why dictatorship now means absolute authority by one person, why dictatorship is the prefered word in place of authoroitarianism, why Socialism means command economy where one government dictates everything even when it contradictingly refers to system with democracy and meritocracy under working class rule, and why Capitalism means minimal government intervention even when it contradictingly refers to a system where only the rich 1% of the population rule the country.

    With brainworms like that, the “PMC” in “PMC commander” must mean professional managerial class.

      The funny part is, the guy initially join the conversation to complain that a person broke the server rule about no political discussion…then proceed to break it in a much bigger magnitude.

    I can’t help but be reminded of the conversation between Omar Mukhtar and General Rodolfo Graziani in Lion of the Desert, where Graziani asks him why he resisted Italian colonialism for so long. Graziani blames him for Libya’s ruination, tries to justify Fascist domination, and even offers Omar Mukhtar collaboration instead of the death penalty, but Omar Mukhtar remained resilient, knowing that other Libyans, from generation to generation, would continue resisting subjugation as long as somebody imposed it on them.

    I just rewatched that scene, and I was still captivated by it.
