how about a 100% stake in all companies
Join lemmy.ml doesn't fill me with confidence that that would work out well.
tankies are fucking idiots and probably feds to wreck the concept of socialism, the US government has a long and storied history of such behavior
Very true.
Ummmmm one of the main targets of COINTELPRO was the CP USA and their support of the USSR, even in Hungary and Prague.
Which is where the term "tankie" literally comes from.
You seem to be arguing against your own post.
the US infiltrates leftist groups to sow division, to prevent them from making progress and acting as wreckers.
tankies redirect leftist energy away from organizing in a way that would be effective, and instead towards supporting imperialism of a different color
i believe that this is probably supported by state actors, likely including the CIA
just my little conspiracy theory. it doesn't really matter if its true or not, the fact remains that tankies are fucking dipshits and that socialism shouldn't be judged by a minority of loud dipshits
Yeah, this is the same stupidity as when 'tankies' claim socdems are CIA.
Even the use of the term just shows the person using it isn't bothering with actually thinking, they just want to mark a border of themselves as the only true leftist, and everyone else as to the right.
It's nonsense and smells of terminal online nonsense that produces no form of actual change.
ok
Wait, so the workers would control the things that let us produce value?
Sounds familiar somehow . . . .
yes, socialism good, capitalism bad
