""Actually existing socialism" simply refers to countries in which socialism is the dominant mode of production. So for example the USSR, China, Yugoslavia, Cuba, DPRK, Albania, etc. were/are all examples of actually existing socialism, despite having obvious differences in how their economies and societies operated. It was contrasted with purely theoretical conceptions of how a socialist society would operate, e.g. Laurence Gronlund's The Cooperative Commonwealth, the latter portions of August Bebel's Woman and Socialism, and Karl Kautsky's On the Morrow of the Socialist Revolution. This doesn't mean that theorizing about socialism is a waste of time, just that it is nowadays possible to establish a relationship between theory and practice as to how socialism works. Modern theories benefit from the experiences of former and existing socialist countries." #communism #leftism

"The basic positions[4] of Battaglia Comunista were as follows: Rosa Luxemburg and not Lenin was right on the national question. The old Communist Parties (now fully Stalinised) were not centrist but bourgeois. There was no hope of conquering the unions and that new strategies towards the daily class struggle would have to be evolved to connect the daily struggle of the class to the longer term struggle for communism. The USSR was neither a communist or socialist society but state capitalist There could be no substitution of the party for the class as a whole." #marxism #revisionism #history #communism #leftism #weird #rosa_luxemburg

Why pay this instead of using TwitchTracker? Sign of capitalism being totally broken? This would happen in socialism too, right? This is a status quo problem? Wait how do I still not understand how socialism works. How would it work for a site like this? #leftism
