      I agree they’ve been heavily sanctioned, and it is factually true that you could describe what they’re doing as “pursuing sovereignty”.

          Two things can be true at once: NK might be very bad in a lot of aspects, but the US has many similarly problematic allies. The main reason NK is widely sanctioned is that they’re not part of the capitalist sphere of influence, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t other (far more valid) reasons to sanction them.

          Yup, Marxism-Leninism, by introducing generational trauma worldwide via USSR in general and crushing non-bolshevik flavours of communism when they had their best chances of succeeding in their revolutions in the inter-war period.

          You tankies are a bunch of totalitarian fucking endgame capitalist twats, all of you.

            cry about it, marxism leninism prevailed over any oter idealist flavor of communism because marxism leninism is te most coherent, theoretically complete and practical ideology.

            CRY

              That’s the most sincere love letter to the capitalism I’ve ever seen.

              But what am I saying, monopolizing every inch of capital by a single party and suppressing other players (such as syndicalists or luxemburgists) to secure ideological domination in their own field… That bears no sign of capitalism.

                your critique of marxism leninism seems to be “party have control over production” which in no way reflects capitalism due to absence of the bourgeosie, wage labor, profit extraction, etc. Your critique seems to be moral rather than materialistic.

                You also assume that said parties completely function by the direction of some elite and not by the suggestion of people.

                  Do you know a single thing about how the USSR actually functioned?

                  which in no way reflects capitalism due to absence of the bourgeosie, wage labor, profit extraction, etc.

                  Define bourgeoisie, because what else would the soviet ruling class effectively be if not just that?

                    I know more about that than you since I am a communist

                    Define bourgeoisie

                    Bourgeosie owns private poperty for extraction of surplus value for its own which is generated by labor power of working class. Hope this helps
