Anti-communists&Ultraleftoids in 1920s:
>Soviet Russia is state capitalist and socialist only in name! It will 'normalize' sooner or later! It is a kulak dictatorship by Stalin!
>1920s Soviet Russia was reliant on importing machinery with trade deficit dependent to west! Komsomol members and young communists angered by gap between reality and ideal! Restoration of trade and diplomatic relatons with west! Powerful kulaks and widespread corruption! Lenin said Russia is 'politically socialist', but this is a fluke! Russian Revolution was in fact, nothing more than a capitalist one!
Etc., etc., same shit you heard about China in 2000s-2010s and still present among anti-communists and fake marxist degenerates as of present.
"Sosnovsky coined the phrase 'the automobile-harem factor' in relation to the rise of the bureaucracy. Aspiring bureaucrats would marry the daughters of bourgeois and aristocrats and imitate their outlook and habits. The big cars of the officials and their 'painted ladies' recalled the protest of Gracchus Babeuf at a similar phenomenon in the period of Thermidorean reaction […]"
>1928-9 USSR: Great Break, sudden annihilation of kulaks as a class, 'Second October'
What is the lesson? It is that althrough threats of overthrow created by new class of capitalists and 'nepmen' is real, as long as the Communist Party holds power, it is POLITICALLY SOCIALIST. People who harp about PRC and claim it is not socialist do not understand Lenin made concessions and retreats that were not any less than those made by Deng Xiaoping. 'China has stock markets/wage labor/value form' whatever shit raised by fake marxists who not only dispute economical but also political form are going against Lenin.
>>2630912You are right but this has been settled so many times now it was hardly worth a new thread. See
>>2628979 Another bourgie Dengist historical revisionism thread, eh? Let's contradict that!
<Lenin:
a. How long did the NEP last?
b. What did Lenin say about the burgeoning bureaucracy and about it wielding something?
<Mao:
a. While the CPC under Mao's leadership (the pupils of the just successful anti-fascist USSR, collectivized, industrialized, centrally planned, before supercomputers) focused on both social and material conditions, what did Mao think Deng's perspective lacked and the consequences of downplaying one?
b. According to the CPC during 1950s-to-1960s, what are the adverse consequences to socialist internationalism by adopting a rightist and social-imperialist line, first emerging in the CPSU with Khrushchev's clique, then also being struggled against in the PRC?
c. Why was the Cultural Revolution started?
d. What are some of Mao's final statements on Deng near the end of Mao's life?
e. What differentiates Chinese foreign policy from the 50s to mid 70s vs late 70s to today?
Bonus
<Xi:
a. If the CPC several years under the leadership of Xi Jinping in 2017 tried to strip the DPRK of its main method of defending itself, nuclear armaments, in chorus with the G7/NATO imperialists; what in US-China relations changed in 2018 that made China less interested? And does that reflect a deeply set bourgeois (profit motive, competing capitals) vs proletarian (revolutionary, socialist) internationalism guiding their overall strategy?
>>2631215> What are some of Mao's final statements on Deng near the end of Mao's life?Mao was senile, and Deng tricked the yanks into giving up the productive forces. Had Deng lost, China would have continued to make the same ultra left mistakes of some of the GPCR and been CIA couped unceremoniously in the 80s and become something like the Russian federation instead of what it is today.
>>2631314>Mao was senileThe adhom/distraction
always used to not study a crucial part of the materialist history of socialism in the world-historical Chinese revolution; the Cultural Revolution.
Let me guess, the Deepseek and Qwen content blocks prevented you from giving an answer?
>Deng tricked the yanks into giving up the productive forcesSorry anon but transnational capital actually
owns and controls their corporations on Chinese soil. They also
have made immense profits from the rightist CPC traitors prostituting the Chinese proletariat. Clearly you thought differently, that the PRC was a planned economy, like DPRK. That's false.
>Had Deng lost [alternative history]Irrelevant and embarrassing.
0/8: You have failed the basic test of historical materialism and are wholly ineligible for Party work.
