    So true! Western “freedom” my arse!! Life is so much better in Russ…oh, wait, maybe not at the moment. China! Oh, wait, no, that’s not a good example either. OK, North Kor…what? Oh, right. Not them then.

    Er… need a bit of help here guys. What’s a shining example of communism that’ll make us Westerners wish they were living under that instead of our current hideous regimes?

        It is interesting how these people think that China froze in time 30 years ago and is still poor and struggling. The life of the average person in China is better than in the US, and within a decade, will probably become better than most of the Anglosphere, and within 2 decades will be better than all of those “superior” Europeans. And these same CHUDs will be making the same “Ugh, China bad! Authoritarian!” arguments while toiling away at 3 jobs just to keep the lights on.

      Russia isn’t communist (and seems to be doing just fine regardless), China has an outstanding quality of life and is arguably one of the best places to live in the world, and I quite enjoyed my time in the DPRK. Many of the issues the DPRK suffers is because of sanctions placed on them, not their own government.

      You are missing a few horrible rote generalizations. Would you like to say something about Cuban supermarkets to get the full experience?

      If capitalism is so bad then how come living conditions are worse in the exploited global south whose nations are targeted, exploited and destabilised by the imperialist core?

      Same dumbass line of questioning.
