>>2083gorbachev dissolved the party
deng did not
deng took burger jobs and now china is stronger than america.
without doing so china would be india, capitalist AND weaker than america. socialism isn't just about ideological purity, it's about development of the productive forces. marx said there can be no liberation without the development of industry. this isn't just absolute development of industry beyond feudalism, but about development of socialist industry beyond capitalism. a socialist country has to be more productive than a capitalist country to defeat it in warfare, since supremacy in warfare depends on industrial output just as much as it depends on drafting people into the red army. force must be used. I get why NEETs are afraid of being exploited but they are also exploiting their own working class mothers and fathers by expecting to hide in their rooms and mooch off their families until 30 rather than going out into the real world.
