RE: The Bill of Rights (including The 2nd Amendment) was written to 'Protect The People' from their own government, not from each other. Which explains WHY 'career politicians' WANT your gun.

  1. The ussr wasn't communist, it was state socialist at best. (they didnt even call themselves communist last i checked)
  2. it was still more democratic than the usa during many parts of its lifetime. (dont get me wrong, it did attack and lead to the downfall of many anarchist "nations" during its lifetime, so i still consider it trash)
  3. You would be amazed how much anti-communist propaganda exists


thats just one example of western propaganda

Sort:  

In games its always the american side against nazi germany. Same with movies.

Education and employment was guaranteed, unlike within capitalism.

If you really want to get people going then showing them a path towards a world with guaranteed education would be that one thing. People don't really work for money, and those that do are miserable.

did you even read what that represents

??? What's wrong. I was just noticing something I hadn't before

Is it cause I'm not surprised by propaganda? Or that common knowledge being mostly lies? I don't really understand what's bothering you.

Is it about the ussr being democratic? or about them being socialist?

i thought you meant something completely different, you keep using arguments that come from specific groups of people and mashing them together.

You issued that statement on the propaganda right after talking about the "failures" of socialism, which is largely propaganda. So i didnt expect the dual meaning to be the one referring to propaganda

I'm not really arguing with you. I don't really sense us having opposite views so an argument wouldn't benefit us. I'm discussing. I'm trying to learn, understand what your views are and see how mine relate and where they differ.

Let me give you a view of what I know about USSR, (mostly wrong I know) Everyone needs to call each other comrade; everyone has the same/similar wage; everything is controlled by the state; there is no democracy; corruption is rampant; socialism means that everyone was equally poorly fed; no-private property means that the state just took what was yours (never did schools mention the fact to us that it was mostly the means of production, the only way I could relate to it was them taking what we had and keeping it for themselves); no mention is ever made of How Communist(What we called Russians) leaders were chosen. So yeah, a bunch of misinformation (which I know is inaccurate cause I haven't ever tried to verify it)

all of this is addressed in one of the videos i sent you

this one, to be specific

which I'm still watching

At the end of the day what people want has never really changed. Healthcare, food, housing, work, education, friends and family. Even if capitalism tries to defend itself I've lived long enough to see its flaws.

capitalism must rip them apart to survive

Heck, most people still think the cold war was about DEMOCRACY against COMMUNISM... So you've got you're work cut out for you.

communism is becoming much more popular today
