Welcome to the communist Lemmy community! This is a community for all Marxist.
I lived in a communist country in the 80s, but we weren't happy either. Some things may have worked better than now, but many definitely didn't. Of course there is a nostalgia factor, but it doesn't count. So I'd call this bullshit and wouldn't recommend it.
“I’d call this bullshit and wouldn’t recommend it.”
Which statement are you calling “bullshit”?
You wouldn’t recommend what?
Every system has tradeoffs, especially if compared to 40+ years ago. Depending on what was better and what was worse, that can easily be accounted for by the passage of time and building up of previous conditions.
