Fun Fact: what killed communism wasn’t so much the ownership details of the means of production, but the fact they chose a command economy instead of a market economy.
Planned or command economies are bad, no matter what political ideology is behind it.
Also: the way politicians world wide allowed conentration of mega corporations, I feel we are moving much more towards a command economy than a market economy.
I don’t even get this: china and the ussr, were the fastest growing economies ever. Both had some famines at the start and then solved their famine issue. They went from poorest countries in the world to superpowers absurdly quickly. This is a nonsense point. The reason they were so strict and ruthless is largely cia selection bias, and has nothing to do with their economic system, yes. But their means of production issues and therefore socialism is far from the problem.
Sounds like communism to me.
