nice standards of living, all citizens working for the benefit of not only themselves as individuals but for all citizens of the state AND the state itself

+ it went from a backwards country with a majority of its people living in mud huts to being one of the worlds greatest powers who've launched the first man, woman and dog into space

you were safe while walking at night, people of differing races, genders etc enjoyed much more freedom

people always ask me "YEAH BUT I BET YOU CAN'T NAME A COMMUNIST STATE THAT WORKED"
yeah, like lenin didn't exist or anything
the USSR was really damn good under lenin and did well under stalin until famine and warfare hit them really hard
also vietnam and cuba are doing much better now than in the past, along with china

@tropican
lol this again
at least in a communist state, it's for the good of EVERYONE
if you aren't down with it you are a potential threat
capitalist nations are the same way, they just take away your freedom of speech in sneaky, conniving ways
you aren't free either way
wanna be totally free? try anarchy

Don't really know much about it, but the concept of communism in general is a rather pretty idea. And we'll probably end up becoming communist one day or another.

daily reminder that gulags were meant for actual criminals and treasoners, and they didn't just throw any random citizen in there, contrary to what the west would like you to believe
daily reminder that stalin tried his absolute best to help as many people as possible during the famine and didn't commit any type of genocide

I've known about it for a while, so it's not like some sorta big secret they've locked up for a while, and relunctantly let loose.

"Ignore the parts where the people who protested the government were taken away by secret police."

Didn't the US arrest a ton of people simply for being suspected of supporting communism? There was that whole terror thing going on, kinda like a 20th century Salem witch trial. Lots of propaganda going on during that time too.

Can't say that's a good period time, I'd say that period is in fact a bit of a stain. I'm just saying, the USSR wasn't great, even if they enjoyed a better education. I've talked with someone who lived under the USSR and they've told me that it was awful.

"20th century salem witch trial. Lots of propaganda going on during that time too."

Ah, but the US was not even conceived of, yet.

Sorry, that was meant as a sort of simile. I meant that it was like the salem witch trials in the 20th century.
