That's usually when they break out the "well duh, commies want everyone to be equally poor" "argument". Also, you might wanna imply that bottleneck on charts for western countries is linked to their capitalists having to give more pittances to the workers to stop them from looking the USSR's way if you want to see some smoldering rectums.

Kremlin is very wrong, of course. I remember hearing shit like bars openly banning Russians from Russians living all over Europe, not just the UK, for the last year and a half.
Dear visiting libs, don't make it about Ukraine, please, we know your copium all too well. Better let us know how exactly China is responsible for countries with a history of nazi support banding into an openly aggressive military alliance against it. Thanks.
I already addressed this.
extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence
Proceeds to post links to "journalist" articles.
sanctions
Illegal unilateral restrictions. Sanctions would've been sanctioned by the UN.
I'd love some copium about what parts of your precious circus of international "law" you wish to recognize now, illustrating exactly why it's a circus, please.
Nice, now there are two of us xD
Maybe I'm internet-poisoned at this point, but I find people use TIL sarcastically more often then not, and I was confused about that sort of reaction. What Shrike502 meant is that communism is a stage of development that a country can't reach. You can't abolish state, when there are capitalist states around pissing in your cornflakes. It dawns on me now that you might've though he was talking about the ideology. That's why some of us don't like using the word for ideology and just say Marxism, btw. Neater that way.
I know what that means. =) Why did you learn it today?
Ah yes, enjoyed many decades of independence. Colonial taxes and merc wars in Africa over who gets to exploit the locals, anyone?
You know what's fucked? We talk here sometimes about how many people that say they don't like socialism are just very confused. Well, centrists made baby's first step to understanding diamat. They just refuse to graduate and get that synthesis doesn't look like people holding everyone's livelihoods hostage and their victims coming to an agreement.
I'd like to hear more about this alternative history you got rolling around your skull where Finland became communist. I live in the reality where they joined nazis (as Stalin new they would, which is why he had to move the border away from Leningrad), participated in starving a city to death and threw POWs into death camps, not the other way around. And then they turned around, seeing the writing on the wall, and avoided justice that way.
And now they're still nazis.
