THE PEOPLE MUST OWN THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION.

No feudalism. No landlords. No kulaks.

kulaks = prosperous “peasants” = petite bourgeoisie

:stalin-shining:

Every kulak got what they deserved. Read the comments to learn why.

    Context:

    Kulaks were petty bourgeois farmers, richer than ordinary peasants because they had hired labor, owned a mill, creamery, or other type of processing facility, rented out agricultural machinery or equipment on a regular basis, and relied on non-labor forms of income, such as commercial lending, lending directly, etc. A kulak was someone who engaged in at least one of the above activities.

    The kulaks were a highly resistant group of petty bourgeois capitalist.

    Yes there was a famine. What do you fucking think is going to happen when the bourgeoisie started destroying “their” property (AKA farm equipment and food) to try and claw back power?

    Read this article about why we killed the kulaks. The kulaks had every chance to do the right thing and they chose profit and demands for power over feeding hungry children, over saving human lives.

      Also, the United States refused to accept gold for payment of industrial equipment. It imposed sanctions on the USSR in hopes of starving the people into revolt. It would only accept grain for payment, which exacerbated the Ukrainian famine.

      PAY ATTENTION TO FUCKING HISTORY, YOU HAVE THE BREADTH OF HUMAN KNOWLEDGE AT YOUR FINGER TIPS YOU IGNORANT LIBERAL IMPERIAL CORE SHITS.

        :yes-honey-left: “we have money, please just sell us equipment to grow food.”

        :only-throw: “no money, only food”

      The kulaks had every chance to do the right thing and they chose profit and demands for power over feeding hungry children, over saving human lives.

      There is another question which seems no less ridiculous: whether the kulaks should be permitted to join the collective farms.
      Of course not, for they are sworn enemies of the collective-farm movement.

        Yes, they sabotaged and attacked the collective farms and even murdered farmers on those collectives before this speech.

        You do not put people who want to destroy a project into that project.
