    Soviet Union bureaucracy was not the proletariat, they didn’t use the mop to produce commodities, so they didn’t have proletarian class consciousness. Whatever interests they had, it was not working class interests. Lenin, Trotsky and Sverdlov were one nobleman and two petty bourgeoisie.


















  • The next election is the mechanism that makes them fulfill the promises they’ve made during their campaign

    Why are you saying this? Who’s the target audience of this bs? What makes you say that if it’s demonstrably false? Elected politicians don’t keep their promises, they just don’t.

    If your politicians aren’t afraid of losing the next election

    Is Trump scared to loose the next election?

    what is wrong with me hiring someone to hire more people?

    It’s perfectly fine, but unrelated to the question at hand. You don’t hire politicians.

    What is your counterargument other than “no”?

    “No” is actually a stronger argument than yours bc you’re making a positive statement here and the burden of proof is on you.

    You can’t own people, you never did, what are you trying to ask here?

    I dunno. I guess your initial analogy was shit that explained nothing. Don’t use analogies then.

    You can simplify where you can, but as technology advances it gets more complex to manufacture

    And according to you, socialism is necessary for further technological advances. Why? How come we managed to have technological advances without socialism for 99% of human history?

    As for quality of life metrics, things like literacy rates and life expectancies, home ownership and mortality rates

    So as I said, arbitrary bs socialists deem important.

    The Catholic Church should not determine this as they do not base their beliefs in known material reality.

    I understand that you have different gods. Catholics have Jesus and socialists have material reality. But that’s just your opinion, man.

    I am fairly certain that you’re a troll, though, so I don’t see much point in continuing this.

    Sorry for not accepting socialist dogmas unquestionably.
