Move back a bit to early Soviet history and homosexuality wasn't criminalized under Lenin. He also believed in equality between the sexes.

Heck, some of the first things legalized after 1917 were homosexuality, abortion, secular marriage, and divorce to be requested by either of both parts. Things seemed to change from the 30s and onwards.

Well, the person in the picture being labelled as 'Liberal left' talks for itself and this picture doesn't belong here.

Anyway, I'm all for a good joke but when you make shit up, it's not funny, it's pathetic.

Here's what's wrong with the picture:

hates nationalism/patriot of soviet motherland

Communism, at its core, opposes nationalism. A stateless society where everyone is equal can't exist when there are people considering their nationality above the rest and taking pride in it.

is pacifist, hates militarism/proud of his nation's military

The military is there to protect the state and fight for the interests of the bourgeoisie. The USSR's army protected the revolution from Capitalist countries that wanted the USSR's downfall.

is against nuclear arms/strong supporter on nuclear arms

No true Communist supports weapons of mass destruction created for the sole purpose of destroying entire cities. The USSR's nukes were a protection against the US during the cold war.

thinks 'the cops' have too much power/believes in a strong police force

In every society police is necessary but it's undeniable that in our society the cops are not professionally trained, in most countries are too militarised and sometimes have too much power. The problem doesn't lie in the cops themselves, but the police force as a part of the state and the current laws the state orders the police force to enforce.

LGBT activist/supports soviet criminalisation of homosexuality

Homosexuality became legal after the USSR was established but became illegal again when Stalin got in power. It doesn't necessarily mean people supported that, especially considering that people, even the government, were rather pro-LGBT after Stalin's death, even though homosexuality remained illegal.

thinks drugs should be legal/thinks drug users/dealers should be shot without trial

Shot? More like a few years in prison. It is also worth noting that until about 1974, possession of drugs or use of drugs without intention of trafficking were legal.

is feminist/thinks feminism divides the nation and working class

I didn't know Russians were Brocialists, lmao. Anyway, in the USSR, women and men were equal and the concepts of marriage and traditional family were weakened. Sounds pretty feminist to me.

opposes 'imperialist' wars in the middle east/supports the armed invasion of islamist territories

What invasion of Islamist territories, lol?

Anyone who doesn't oppose Imperialist wars on resourceful 3rd world countries is no true Communist.

Invasion of Afghanistan?

Also the joke is that actual communism is very different from what this guy thinks. The USSR was very patriotic and pro military.

    [–]MuzzyIsMe 53ポイント54ポイント  (22子コメント)

    I think there are people who are misguided in thinking communism as it has been established, such as in the USSR/China/Cuba, is good. I don't think someone like Marx would have looked at the USSR and supported or even recognized what they were doing.

    However, communist theory is good. It's probably never achievable due to human nature, but again, as a thought experiment it makes sense. What is not to appreciate about a society that shares in everything and supports all?

    ... I am discussing political theory on /r/starterpacks. I expect to show up on /r/iamverysmart soon.

    Should I draw it out and write some overly complex statement? It is only "copy paste" because it is such a commonly held belief.

    Human nature does not exist, there is no such thing. Not in the way you are speaking about it. People act in certain ways due to the environment they develop in. If society teaches the individual to be selfish and mean, the individual will grow up to be selfish and mean.

    A species has a better chance of survival and is more efficient if they co-operate, rather than compete. Our current society teaches individuals to compete against each other. Nations compete against each other, companies compete against each other, different political parties compete against each other. Imagine how easily problems like climate change, poverty, and homelessness could be solved if we decided to co-operate rather than compete.

    It's a commonly held belief because it's propaganda that's taught in american public schools.

    It's a commonly held belief that god exist and people have souls, does it mean that god exists and humans have souls?

    Communist theory is objectively wrong. True successfully policies come from the right, not from the left.

    [–]PoliticalPrisonGuard 5ポイント6ポイント  (2子コメント)

    Well yeah, the Paris Commune, Revolutionary Catalonia, and the Free Territory of Ukraine were all pretty good.

    Every time communism has actually been implemented its worked beautifully, and only failed due to capitalist aggression.

    Unless your talking about the USSR and other such countries, which never claimed to be communist in the first place. They claimed to be working towards communism. Remember: communism is a stateless, moneyless, classless society.

    communism is a stateless, moneyless, classless society.

    Sure that sounds great, and even works great on a small scale, but how do you organize something like that? Money and government are more than anything means of organization.

    [–]PoliticalPrisonGuard 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Direct democracy and workers councils. Catalonia is a pretty big region in Spain that was communist.

    I am going to presume you know absolutely nothing about communism that you have learned for yourself? Or are you just going by what you've been told your whole life?

    "Those who don't miss the Soviet Union have no heart, those who want it back have no brain": Vladimir Putin.

    Take that quote for what you want, but I know enough people from the GDR who say that the regime really sucked, especially the Stasi, but that life was generally easier more uncomplicated and that your basic needs were fullfilled.

    Is it the Putin quote or why? Just look at election results, our main leftist party is still strongest in the former socialist regions.

      I don't get why there's so many Stalin apologists and Mao apologists on the communist subs.

      I am not actually active on that many commie subs, only FULLCOMMUNISM, which is kinda more like a meta-satire. They are all communists there or leftist from all denominations, but celebrate communism in its full variety or so.

      But when you take every country and every leader and judge them solely by their fuckups or evils, every country starts looking pretty bad. Almost every regime can be looked at in a good or evil light depending on what you look at. Almost none are objectively demonizable or idolizeable. I say almost because the CSA and Nazi Germany were pretty objectively shitty.

      The first part, absolutely. Really most great civilisations of the past are build on conquests and most great powers which have survived untill today are full of massacres and similar.
      My personal opinion is also that Capitalism is shit, main reason it is an unstable and unfair system. Especially on the unstable part Capitalism has to get into a crisis regularly to stay alive. The free Market cannot stay free and with time monopolies form and it has to collapse to become free again, this both the monopolies and the crash are bound to cause a lot of suffering to the people. Thats why I would favour a state controlled market, tough I personally would allow smaller businesses, but then again that might be idealism.

      Either way, I don't know much about the CSA daily life, but Nazi Germany wasn't in war from the very beginning and my Grandparents both grew up in Nazi Germany (both germans tough). Of course they thing the Nazi party was abominable with what they did, but as children they didn't notice it and untill the end (the war) they had a relatively normal childhood.

      Concerning Mao and Stalin apologism or North Korea apologism. Honestly the biggest apology most of the time is that they converted a backwars aggriculturian society into an industrial one. But yeah if you read Zizek he says that Russia was already before communism the 5th most industrialised country in the world and what Stalin did was basically just a continuation of Russia's natural economic progression, not his merit.
      I don't buy all this, Stalin and Mao hated the people and wanted to deliberately starve the peasants, Russians, Ukrainian or Chinese or whatever. Actually the most dangerous place to be wasn't being a peasant at the time, but being politically active in the Party itself. Around 80% of central commitee were killed between 1930 and 1933 or so. Also Stalin was likely not the sanest person to run a state, the show trial the dissenter got were more like musicals. Extremely stages to the point everyone had their text to say and if not it was rehearsed. btw Stalin was an avid fan of musicals, Hitler was a passionate fan of Wagner. I also don't look on North Korea subs, but apparently they have lists about "myths about the DMRK busted", but seriously even without the worst myths being true, it is still faaaaar from the communist utopia some make it out to be and really I wouldn't want to live there.

      What I meant with the Putin quote is, what I think he says is, it is okay to have nostalgia and it is a part of their/our history and really it wasn't all bad like some people make it out to be. Yet one should realise that also your nostalgia betrays you. The state is gone and to honestly try to bring it back would be insane. I mean really if you were happy with a modest life and didn't need 50 varieties of one product which are essentially the same and didn't expect there to be strawberries in store at christmas (or tropical fruits en masse), life would have been great if it weren't for the surveillance, but yeah the Staatssicherheit was basically childs-play to what the NSA is capable today. Really if your demands were modest you could have had a great life and really compare to how you would live with similar wages today, it wouldn't be like that. (Honestly I am really impressed that my Grandfather was the sole breadwinner and they had their own house and five children, basically impossible today).
