you’re a little too reactionary for me. I’m asking other people now.

"You support fidel castro in his struggle to bring socialism to the Cuban ppl in the mid 20th century on a tiny island nation under ruthless attack by the US at every turn, yet you want to abolish the carceral state in 21st century America. How could this be??? I am very smart."

Besides his land redistribution and other socially progressive initiatives, the workers didn’t own the means of production.

Fidel era falangista.

This is a socialist thread, no?

From socialists, in a non antagonistic manner. But guess what, this thread is also not a place to run through every little criticism of actual present day and historical socialist states because they dont fit your idealistic version of socialism. Go find another thread for that. Stop coming in here talking about the big authoritarian boogeyman

I am a socialist, I support the workers owning the means of production and getting to a classless, moneyless and stateless society in the future.

I am not promoting idealism, I just don’t like seeing leftists aspiring to repeat mistakes and not learning from the past. Transcend the worship of dead men.

You cant even realise the contradictions of your own position. Guess what, if you want the workers to own the means of production and to one day have communism, it ain't gonna be without the power of the state. Until you realize that, its idealism

this is the main criticism of anarchists from marxists, but it’s kinda funny considering the USSR and even Cuba didn’t even make it out it’s state form

“Withering away the state” is out of the window when you get central power.
