This.

Russia is surely not the most luxurious, reasonable, or likeable nations in the world but sometimes it is misrepresented. Don't get me wrong, I would be scared to be anywhere in their territory.

communist =/= bad, evil, sad people, everyones starving and also on fire and did u know communism equals cannibalism :000
youre painting the wrong picture of communism as an ideology and it's your thread so maybe get your facts right??

communism in practice has often led to dictatorship because people just want al the money and power etc. so many communist countries were filled w/ corruption and power hungry leaders. also many countries say "we r communist u wouldnt understand !!! uwu" when actually they are a dictatorship with some communist ideas maybe and their people are suffering. kinda like how north korea calls themselves Democratic and how the democratic republic of congo isnt All That fdemocratic .

ok so while i dont really think it would be the best idea ever to have a very communist economy i think you're being really unfair or w/e to the ideology. communism isnt about being a corrupt dictator of a country filled with dying, oppressed people.

capitalism isnt a perfect ideology either. capitalism needs poor people in order to function. it relies on c. im not saying that communism would be a better option economically but no system is perfect and just because a bunch of communist countries have sucked doesnt mean that communism as an ideology is bad. it has been executed badly but that doesnt mean that the ideology is evil and bad.
it sounds like you think communist is, like, a Rly Bad thing to be. maybe u should chill out?

why tho
 
Raskell is right that communism hasn't played out well in practice, but that doesn't mean it's a bad ideology. If the state is going to run the economy, then a country has to have completely free and fair elections and strong mechanisms for accountability for public officials to prevent abuse. The USSR failed because it didn't have those things.

However, pure capitalism has some conditions it needs in order to work. Mainly, everyone has to have integrity. Monopolies, false advertising, manipulation, and stealing happen when an economy is left unregulated, which is why no major economy has a pure capitalist system.

Thank you!!! Jesus christ the lack of understand about what communism actually is is insane.
 
I voted Cuba.
Cuba is a communist nation. North Korea is a fascist nation.
Communism is an economic system, but fascism is a government system.
That's why I didn't vote North Korea. Communism does not include language police, at least Marxist commumism doesn't. But North Korea has it.

ok but no. there's not one instance in history where communism hasn't played out well. it looks neat on paper, but doesn't work in practice. there's only a handful of countries who are still communist because of wars, because it's impractical and Americans kept calling people 'commies' in the swingin' 60s ?? America just hates communism lOl. But I mostly blame the trigger-fingered US presidents for going to war because it would risk them losing all their moneys;;

Do u hate communism so much you had to make this thread or is it just adding more fuel to the political arguments.

Ok also Vietnam isn't technically communist but sorta.

Please don't assume things.

The poll was to represent what people thought which country was more communism than the other.

so by "assuming things" u mean literally reading your posts and seeing that you Sure Dont Like Communism ..?
if you had wanted a serious discussion you should have added more countries, some information about it (so it wouldnt turn into the misinformed mess it is now) and maybe read about communism before posting a thread about it.

also no one had answered why they think north korea is the most communist country. ..

this Rly implies that your opinions on communism is kinda Rly negative and since you dont seem to want to discuss how the countries are communist or why you think that i get the feeling that you just want to let everyone know how much you hate communism
