    Say what you want about Stalin, but he'd know how to deal with this degenerate nonsense much better than any of our modern western leaders.

    People shouldn't conflate the neo-liberals of today to the communist ideology of the past like Marx, who didn't see Blacks as equal to other men and so on. Marx, while I don't agree with other things that he said, was pretty much right on the fact that families based on community or socialism rather than getting help from the government is the best form of families and so on. Taking care of one another is indeed the best form of affection you can do to your family. In other words, he argued for the people in taking caring of each other in their respective communities and families than being very dependent on the government which is something that most White/European American families used to be before the madness of liberalism took over after the 60's. He also stated that the world economy would crash to the ground, and the world's wealth will be in the hands of the very few which is exactly what's happening right now. I mean, one shouldn't dismiss all the claims made by one person just because he/she said some or a lot of things that are wrong. I'm not an absolute capitalist or communist but rather somewhere in between.

    Neoliberalism has proven itself to be a failure at controlling Capitalism like all other modes of Capitalism as was shown with the financial crisis of 2008 and the unprepared response to Covid-19 by America et. al. and the following recession or depression as the result.

    It's funny how people talk about how Communism was a failure when true Communism has never existed on the planet earth.

    Stalin actually moved away from communism, Marxism. Communism became formal; for him, Russian patriotism was more important. He shot Marxist-Trotskyists, Mensheviks.

    In the 1920s, it was reported that everything should be common, even wives should be common. Because private property is evil.
    Under Stalin, this was not. He also stopped the persecution of the church, returned the shoulder straps of the army and began to study the history of Russia until 1917.

    Fortunately, this idea wasn't really implemented practically.

    People these days think in a very black-and-white way of thinking and so on which is why they're so easily suckered into the whole political dichotomy like in the US say between Democrats and Republicans which in reality there isn't much difference between the two these days since both advocate for the replacement of White/European Americans - the people that founded and made America great in the first place among other issues like illegal immigration that the Trump administration had not yet solved.

    Marxist ideology : Liberate the working class and remove class distinctions : from each according to his ability to each according to his need" create a temporary dictatorship of the Proletariat which will eventually give way to a withering away of the state as superfluous establishing universal freedom for all peoples.

    Limousine neo-liberal : pretend to care about people like blacks virtue signaling from the safety of their gated community by posting on facebook or sending out a tweet meanwhile flooding working class neighborhoods with low IQ criminal blacks and hispanics then cry racism when the 'redneck racist' working class react in racist ways.

    In my country during communism the police were much harder on the gypsies than they're now.

    What are your views on the Libertarian Right, whose views on social issues aren't usually much different from their Left-wing counterparts (even if they may not treat them as such a priority), in addition to wanting to privatise and marketise everything under the sun?
