Every single one of the things that you just listed are present in a many parts of the developing world. Most of these places are not considered communist.
In fact I would say those things you said perfectly describe a country that is a Dictatorship - but there are lots of those that are not socialist.
I assumed that you thought they were communist because you disagreed with my original post which claimed that they were not.
- andrenth 8y agoThe term “dictatorship of the proletariat” is not a coincidence.
- RugnirViking 8y agoYou seem to be making the argument that all dictatorships are communist. I can assure you this is not true, and would be surprised if you cannot think of any examples of non-communist dictators.
- andrenth 8y agoI'm making the argument in the opposite direction. Communism and socialism end up as dictatorships, when not already bootstrapped as one.
