She does seem like a massive bastard.

I mean, that's to be expected of a presidential candidate but she doesn't hide it super well like most of them do.

He thinks socialism in one country is a good idea that will work.

He's not really that good at the internationalist requirements.

I know you like to be Fig. 1 of what Michael Parenti was talking about when he described Pure Socialists but you could at least try some internal consistency - using "socialism in one country" as a cudgel against me won't work when you need to talk about the spread of "stalinist" satellite states that were controlled by moscow or w/e later. tho i would like to see your reconciliation of what you imply "socialism in one country" means with socialism then showing up all over eurasia, south america and africa, while "permanent revolution" lead to no revolutions.

I'd suggest that it also led to the cold war which did wonders to further entrench capitalism in the rest of the world, and most socialist countries have now integrated quite a lot of capitalism into their societies as well, which is a key contributing factor to why they are no longer as ostracised.

The issue with tacking that kind of radical ideological change to geographjcal borders is that it provokes an equally powerful reaction.

I'm not entirely comfortable with dialectics + nuclear weapons, especially when it didn't work last time.
