Hey! I live in Belgium and doing Marxist Econ research, plus doing library events on the side. Feel free to send me a message anytime too!

South Vietnam flags are very popular in the US as well.

looking forward to it

The main idea of CPC right now is non-intervention and peaceful coexistance. This is one of reasons why capitalist nations have been fairly friendly with China up until recently. Outlining steps after the fall of imperialism is kind of impossible since you would have to predict the future ostensibly.

Building a multipolar world, challenging US imperialism.

I have experience with some Montessori institutions. Generally they are pretty good at getting kids to think critically, learn from mistakes and take responsibility early in development. Would definitely be cool to see in a socialist project, but not sure about how to scale it to a national level. Might have issues with standardization.

Just wanted to say good luck with studies! Russian is tricky but I think in conversation people tend to be very forgiving of mistakes. I’m thinking also maybe watching films in Russian might help with learning how to pronounce words. There’s lots of Soviet films available on YouTube.

1. Im not sure I agree with your definitions of communist and socialist sectors, since a socialist mode of production already means a focus on use value. So the definition of a communist sector is redundant.
2. “When looking at the USSR, it had basically no capitalist sector” - depends on time period!
3. “Denmark and the UK both had small communist sectors in things like their healthcare.” - is a regulated capitalist sector really equivalent to a socialist sector?
4. “We simply state that unless there is a DotP established, the capitalist sector will erode them away.” - I would also argue that without a DotP, the socialist sector is always subservient to (the booms and busts) of the capitalist one

It looks really nice

Ive heard so many American liberals say that modern Russia is communist lol

Hadn’t had troubles with TSA so far, if it helps

Liberalism is the ideology of capitalism. Bourgeoise is the capitalist class

I file my relationship with communism HR first

Star Trek

Nothing surprising. Has been the trend for a while

I would recommend the book Everything for everyone (https://www.commonnotions.org/everything-for-everyone) which is a fictional account of a near future communist New York.

I would also recommend to not try to seek out an unbiased account of communism, which does not exist. There are a lot of assumptions that go into it and will be of course influenced by the authors biases.

Im not sure what you mean when you say you don’t want historical content, since that is what documentation is. Other than that there are fictional stories if that’s what you are looking for?

Maybe check out Everyday Utopia by Kristen Ghodsee? She writes about different egalitarian communities in history
