Welcome again to everybody! Make yourself at home <3 In the time honoured tradition of our group, here is our weekly discussion thread!

Also check out our telegram https://t.me/real_genzedong!

Subreddit archive is available here: https://tankies.la/archive and is updated through yesterday, however it is still heavily under construction and you should expect continued disruptions/changes in usability of the page over the coming weeks. Be warned, it’s like marxists.org level of web design as I’m only interested in it working, not its appearance rn.

Cheers

    Blackshirts and Reds is great so far.

    I got in an argument with someone about communism and they really had problems with the EVERYONE MAKES THE SAME, THAT DOESNT WORK and the BUT WHAT ABOUT FREEDOM arguments.

    Somehow I could not find any good explanation about these topics. Does someone on here have some good sources for this? Especially the wages thing. I understand what Marx meant with his wage labour theory and I understand communist visions for wages, but I couldn’t really explain that stuff clearly yesterday. Thanks comrades.

      Look at past successes of Socialism. In the USSR more ‘advanced’ careers like doctors were paid more. What was amazing about the Soviet system was that you could do virtually any job and have decent living standards unlike the west. Their was however incentive if you wanted to earn more.
