    Except you’d not get that healthcare and the rest if you didn’t pay people off.

    eh docs and nurses are pretty fucking cool but don’t work for free. of course you’re going to pay people off, they need wages ffs

      Communism = no currency. There doesn’t seem to be a whole lot of knowledge regarding communism in here. A bit of an echo chamber. It’s funny how so many can hate something so much without actually knowing what it is they’re hating. Ha.

        …I’d prefer a single payer system where no one went without. Broke my nose while living in the UK and was impressed with their no bullshit system.

        you can have democratic socialism of many flavors without going full on communism, and you’ll never get to communism from here, abjectly shittified capitalism. I’d prefer denmark over…well, where has communism worked?

        Like, I respect the medical professionals Cuba produces but would never want to live there.

          You’re advocating for the “lesser evil” option without having a basic understanding of leftist ideology. It’s still capitalism, it’s still a terrible right winger framework.

            you didn’t answer the question at all. call it whatever you want, I’d rather have something that I can see working - than something that I’ve never seen work. Unfettered capitalism is cancer, sure. But that’s not exclusive to capitalism - government without restraints usually is miserable - see the USSR.

            if you can show me communism working I’m down to learn new things; but you can’t point at liberal social democracies and say “that’s still in the terrible right winger framework” when it’s functioning far better than the US or the communist countries I’ve seen.

            Another data point would be great, but from my POV all I can see is left—(social democracies)—center-----right (capitalist fascism)

            note there’s no (communist society) on that spectrum.

              Communism has never been implemented. You’re unaware of what communism is, so how would you know anyways? Social Democracy Isn’t on the left side of the spectrum. There’s no such thing as a leftist that supports capitalism. Capitalism does not work without exploitation.

              China is working towards communism, and the USSR made huge progress, all while at war with the west the entire time.

              I’m busy reading and can’t be bothered to continue this conversation. Later.
