/ussc/ - Union of Soviet Socialist Channels

Any explanation/argument behind that? Not that I necessarily disagree at all. Why weren't any of them truly Communism?

>>166
Communism is a stateless classless society. It's a post scarcity utopia.

>>167
So what would you call these historic/present attempts then?
Socialism? Or something else?

>>168
Well neither the USSR nor the PRC could be considered socialist, since it's the party that controls the means of production, not the workers. There hasn't really been many truly socialist countries. Tito's Yugoslavia would probably be considered as one of them. Most of these countries either have state capitalism or outright fascism in the case of best korea.

Communism is not possible until socialism has become the dominant social system globally, socialism has occurred(briefly) in various places(USSR for a short time, the paris commune, spain for a single summer)

>>170
Not necessarily. All it needs is for those socialist systems to be many and big enough to be able to supply themselves/each other.
Otherwise the bourgeoisie are going to do everything in their power to destroy it.

>>169
>Fascism
Its more of a socialist absolute monarchy
