Reading about FOSS philosophy, degoogling, becoming against corporations, and now a full-blown woke communist (like Linus Torvalds)

    Please. There are so many examples of modern Communists claiming that the USSR and PRC aren't "true communism" that's it's become a meme.

    Yeah? Which ones. Name a single major communist party.

    You are not referring to communists. You are referring to people like yourself, who are uneducated morons that don't actually do any politics, but instead engage in politics as a source of entertainment through media. It's a spectator sport for you, you're not a participant, and neither are the """communists""" that you claim oppose these things. There are a handful of trotskyist parties of relevance in the world today, and while some of those are critical of China and the Stalin period of the USSR they still uphold it other than Stalin. Even Trotsky himself wrote that he would have done everything Stalin did anyway.

    If you're not in orgs, you're simply not a participant. If you're not doing something, you're not a communist. You're a spectator and a non-participant.

    What actually organising communists have this position? They don't. Because you're fucking wrong mate.

    No I meant Khazaks. The Holodomor killed the Kulaks and news of it got out to the West so it got the headlines. But the same Collective Farming experiments were tried im Khazakstsn and led to mass starvation that killed over half the native population.

    Stop saying holodomor dumbass it's literally the word that nazis gave to the specifically Ukrainian part of the great famine as a means of playing down the holocaust and playing down the larger famine that happened at the time. I already told you to stop being a fucking nazi.

    This region had a famine every 5 years for 1000 years and this was the last ever famine to occur in the region, thanks to the soviets.

      No Holodomor is largely just a compound word in Ukrainian that translates loosely as "to kill with hunger" or "hunger plague". Provide a different well known phrase to refer to this Genocide and popularize it. Additionally this phrase primarily arose in the USSR in the 1980s as domestic policy stopped censoring references to the genocide. It was Soviets who popularized the term, not Fascists.

      This region had a famine every 5 years for 1000 years and this was the last ever famine to occur in the region

      They didn't have famines that killed 50% of the native population every 5 years. Restricting internal movement and discussion of the famines and preventing domestic and foreign aid was an intentional move designed to starve those people. And the acuteness of those famines was in large part because of Collectivism breaking the logistics of farming.

      Maybe you should be more concerned that there was a whole ass genocide you were unaware of in your model implementation instead of trying to hand wave the issue away.

        This nazi propaganda again. I stopped reading at the first sentence and I'm blocking you. You're a nazi and there's literally no point in conversing with someone that is so blatantly acting in bad faith. If this conversation happened on the street with basically anyone here in Manc you'd be bricked over the back of the head.
