No, what you understand to be Communism is really just Bolshevism. Communism refers to a classless and stateless society where workers control and own the means of production. So by definition, there hasn't been a communist society in the modern era.

No, you have this imaginary idea that communism is even good in theory well it's not.

How do you tell a Communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.The accuracy of this statement never ceases to amaze me.

Fascism derives from socialism. Hitler was not fascist, nor was Germany under his rule. The real fascist was Mussolini. Mussolini was a die-hard socialist, and a revolutionary socialist before he came to power. He put forth the idea of a nationalist zeal for country, with socialist ideas(nationalizing banks, etc.) and even Marxist principles (classeless society, for instance). So yes, Mussolini was a socialist. Hitler was also a socialist, but not because he was "fascist".

a situation when someoen works hard, but someone else reaps the reward for merely being in a family that own the property. I think that's your language.

One of the functions of fascism is to generate mass appeal amongst the working class while simultaneously destroying the working class. Under Hitler and Mussolini, wages were slashed, unions broken and massive subsidies were given to big business...not very "socialist" is it?? No because Hitler was a totalitarian who wanted to concentrate corporate power alongside state power. Socialism is the transition into a classless stateless society where workers own the means of production (communism). |
