I Am A Marxist Communist

The DPRK's ascendance over the last couple decades, even after the barrage of attacks laid against it by the imperialist powers and after the collapse of the USSR, is something of a miracle. I am legitimately inspired by the nation's story when I think about the kinds of trials the Korean people have had to face and how they braved it out and established the country as a thriving and independent force for socialism. It throws into striking relief the lie that individuals in society cannot work together and show true, comradely concern for one another's welfare. This is no small task either. They pulled this off in the face of war, invasion, embargo, sanction, and demonization nigh unparalleled in history.

Look where it is now. They've survived so long and managed to bounce back from attack so many times and with such finesse that now the president of the United States is forced to admit over national television that the imperialists are going to back off and play nice. (Whether that's true or not is inconsequential.) This is thanks in no small part due to the impressive weapons programme the DPRK developed, one of deterrence which by all accounts seems to have worked. I would dare say that I'd be disappointed if the DPRK denuclearized because I'd be worried about its fate afterward. Luckily, the administration seems entirely cognizant of this possibility and has been quite stern about forming its alliances and shoring up for potential betrayal.

Kim Jong-un has dutifully carried his forefathers' legacy forward by representing a firm and resolute face of revolution, and I commend him for his noble efforts. He manages with great zeal, as did comrade Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il, to rouse the spirit of the masses to be politically involved and to work hand-in-hand with the administration to keep the country as lively and prosperous and safe as possible.

Long live the DPRK. Happy new year, Juche 108!

Yeah, nothing more admirable than a hereditary tyranny starving a few million people.

you need a citation the Kim Il Sung fathered Kim Jong Il and he fathered Kim Jong Un ? Or Do you need a citation that those assholes were tyrants? @SourPennies
SourPennies · 26-30, F
@redredred That it's a "hereditary tyranny". In other words, you have to explain how elected officials whose positions in the administration have each dissolved after they died are tyrants, especially when the last two haven't been the head of state.

I dont have to explain a fucking thing about the psychopaths killing korean peasants for the fun of it. The only explanation needed is why you think its valuable to puke this sophmoric agitprop out on public display.

The real value of the kim-craps is their example of what socialism eventually (or quickly) becomes. @SourPennies

@redredred "I don't need to explain any of the complete and utter bullshit I spout off!"
Brave of you to come at me with stellar reasoning like that and accuse me of producing "sophomoric agitprop".
Unlike you, I'm not a brainless parrot of Cold War nonsense. I have a real and genuine admiration for the DPRK and its accomplishments, as well as the brave and noble leaders who freed the country from Japanese colonization and helped to turn it into an independent economic rocket. I'm not sorry if that offends you, and you have no place coming here spewing reactionary crap peddled from Radio Free Asia and the hellscape that is the United States. You have yet to prove that the Kims have had absolute authority over the country, and that they can therefore be in any way described as tyrants. Either substantiate your claims or fuck off.

go fuck yourself you idiotic asswipe@SourPennies

@redredred wey hey.....here he is the "economist". You're always so calm and collected, especially in the face of someone who has different ideas.....dude, you're a "free" market psycho, doesn't the free market extend to ideas.....ahhhh, no, capital and land is the most important thing to you
redredred · M
Those "ideas" cost over a hundred million civilians their lives at the hands of their socialist governments in the twentieth century alone. I for one no longer have patience for congenital idiots who still fall for marxism.@gol979
gol979 · 41-45, M
@redredred I'm not sure Marxism and socialism cost hundreds of millions of people's lives but hey, if that makes you feel better, carry on 👍
redredred · M
I know youre not sure. Thats where the congenital idiocy comes in. The National socialists killed a mere 12 million of their own civilians, The Soviet Socialists killed 40 million of their civilians and the Sino-socialists top the list with 60 million dead civilians. Lots of little tin- pot sicialists like castro and pol pot killed a few million more civilians. It was in all the papers.@gol979
gol979 · 41-45, M
@redredred just because you put the word socialist in your sentences doesn't mean it's socialism.....but if that makes you feel better, carry on 👍
SourPennies · 26-30, F
@redredred "The papers", lol. You dolt. By the by, your numbers are essentially randomized and they don't stack up to the reality of the situation in any of the socialist countries, which is that populations skyrocketed and life expectancy doubled. The authors of the Black Book of Communism were so thoroughly shamed for their so-called death tolls by real historians that the authors themselves were forced to disown the book. The fact that you still peddle this nonsense shows just how brain-dead you are.

As for calling the Nazis socialist, don't go calling others idiots when you spout of monumentally stupid statements like that.
redredred · M
The nazis were socialists and thats indisputable unless youre sucking herbert marcuses cock, Socialism correctly describes the nazis, the soviets, the red chinese, castro, pol pot and a whole bunch of murderous regimes. You too.@SourPennies
redredred · M
I used the word "socialist" correctly, its you who is trying to rewrite history@gol979
gol979 · 41-45, M
@redredred lol I'm not trying to rewrite history......I'm just disagreeing with your (biased) taxonomy. But if that makes you feel better, carry on 👍
redredred · M
What would make me feel better is if every fucking socialist on earth were forced to face reality and understand that economic freedom is the essential freedom of every human and socialism is the antithesis of economic freedom..@gol979
gol979 · 41-45, M
@redredred you're on about the free market, yes? So which school of economic theory (you should know, being an "economist") pertains to the free market?
redredred · M
the usual reference is the Chicago or Austrian school but the free market is simply the original "school" of economics. Two free adults making a contract to freely exchange one good for another. Its the economic system that doesnt require government force to work.

Now, give me your planned quibble based on unimportant details.@gol979
