friendship, unity, equality, this can make a country boom in a short amount of time just look at Russia in 1916 under capitalism it was a failing country which was on the brink of collapse, but with communism it turned a third world country like Russia into a super power just in a very small amount of time, communism is power Side: communism

Why don't you go and live in Russia, North Korea or any of the totalitarian dictatorships. Don't say Russia is not a dictatorship, it is. If you had the sense to lift the lid on any of the world's communist regimes, past or present you certainly wouldn't see any ''friendship, unity nor equality. If you really believe that then your head is full of mad dogs shit, if you're just trolling then enjoy yourself and watch you don't get knocked down by the horse trams. Side: capitalism
Totalitarianism and communism aren't interchangeable terms. Name me one society in human history that has been communist in the sense of the concept as Marx put it across in Das Kapital. I can't think of a single one. In his book, Marx talks about the establishment of a communal society by the people for the people, centred on redefining value from altruistic, co-operative intentions rather than exploitative, competitive ones. It's not impossible. It's not even unlikely. Humans practice it all the time, every day when they go to work jobs they hate for shit wages to make some fat-cat in an office rich, then home to their kids to talk about the value of kindness and self-sacrifice, sharing, moral intent, charity, pursuit of happiness. None of us like capitalism, except the few that manage to be the real capitalisers. Communism is the inward desire of every human with the emotional faculty to see the utter incomprehensible destitution that exploitative economic policy creates all over the world. As for your shite about Stalin and the Kims: Stalinism was not communism: power was held solely and centrally in a singular figure. The DPRK's Juche philosophy is not communism: fat man gets everything, people get nothing. Venezuelan rule-by-decree is not socialism: power is held centrally in a single figure. Chinese state-capitalism is not communism: wage slavery and single-party rule (hint: the opposite of COMMUNAL rule). Socialism and communism demand rule from the bottom up, not from the top down. I wonder often if any of you right wing pish-for-brains actually read the literature pertaining to the concepts you seem to despise. It's like a bunch of hillbilly inbreds getting together to form an opinion against climate change, during the hottest, driest summer on human record, drought-ridden and covered in their own stinking sweat. And not one of them has read a single piece of the science they're trying to oppose. Pick up a fucking book, man. Side: communism

Sure. The government should ensure free market by making companies accountable, and the rule of law. It interfering with the market by joining in is an unnecessary affair. It goes similar for other things (because almost everything follows a similar mechanism) - anything that is unnecessary to the government shouldn't be under their power. So, it should just ensure some minimum ideals to keep the market free and state lawful. Side: capitalism
