I’ve been speaking with other more informed communists and they’ve told me that none actually exist. Is this true?

China, Laos, and Vietnam: now notoriously capitalists. Workers work 12+ hours with no protection in horrible factory conditions. Suicide rates are so high that suicide nets are installed. The air is so polluted millions die from lung cancer, especially factory workers w/out basic masks. Corporations dominate

North Korea: Undemocratically ruled by the Kim dynasty. Jong un indulges lavishly at the expense of his citizens, ordering millions in fine wine and trips from Denis Rodman. They might be the most socialist though, as Juche seems to otherwise be democratic.

Cuba: Sanctions have taken a massive toll, but even taking that into account the country still has its own problems. They have massive food shortages and inventory probs and aren’t self sufficient after 60+ years. Why couldn’t they’ve use machinery imported from the Soviet Union to develop their agriculture and fishery? The Soviets supported them heavily. They seem to be incredibly mismanaged or corrupt

      Me: writes paragraphs explaining my thoughts and answering your questions and ask a few questions, all of which you ignore.

      You: write 1-2 sentences in response, usually just asking new questions rather than engage.

      Sure buddy, I’m the scared one.

        Would you have preferred a vote? Yes or no?

        Brainless bluster just makes you look smart to stupid people.

            Nobody should trust your advice on critical thinking if you can’t even reach a simple conclusion.

              “Would you have liked to vote on whether to have a genocide?? It’s a simple question, coward!”

              How is Maoo’s answer to this completely made-up, idealist scenario supposed to prove or communicate anything? You might as well ask him what his opinion on unicorns is, and if he refuses to engage with that question you’ll once again have caught him being scared!
