Serious question: has communism ever been proved to work at scale? (not communist regimes, the communist ideology)

[-] DualState@feddit.org 4 points 4 weeks ago

Not capitalism ≠ communism (or communist ideology). Imagine an interest-free economic system. This could also work completely without communist ideology, but would get rid of the problematic core principle in capitalism that money attracts more money (which for instance might have stopped the Swasticar CEO from even becoming so powerful). This would also improve the value of work compared to just owning money. But maybe I am just delusional and instead the anarchists are indeed right. Dunno.

I haven't met any soc dems who think capitalism can be saved. Most agree that it can only be contained. Just look how successful the Nordic countries are. They have successful companies and still have billionaires, but the rich are heavily taxed. And if the rich threatens to leave with their assets, they will still be taxed heavily for doing so.

???

Just look how successful the Nordic countries are.

Propped up by the underpaid labour and stolen resources of the global South and rapidly sprinting towards fascism like the rest of the West?

The Nordic countries are importing cheap Labour from the global south and then whining about the people not being white enough.
