Socialistic, both Germans and Italians had the sanctity of the worker as
the main idea, that the worker shouldn’t be exploited but live and work for
the greater good of his country and enjoy its benefits. – in the 30s German
cruise ships were forbidden to enter English ports so that the English
working class would see what German workers could afford. . it is a
principle, which is still being applied today even in this crazy globalized
market that if you crash and burn you country will help you
”I hope she becomes a celebrity. Benefits us.” -what.
Europe in general is socialist but still economically conservative about
government spending. . Tax is higher but people expect more from tax money.
. Also there’s different kinds and gradations of socialism, Germany was
always socialistic and will continue to be, that’s their mentality. They
invest in their country and they expect a lot from it. It’s a mentality of;
“if one of us makes it high in life we all mutually benefit down the road,
but everyone has to contribute something”
reminds me of how millions of people starved in Stalin’s Russia.
So many wrong on so many levels. The Sino-Soviet split was largely due to
border skirmishes and China seeing USSR being too interfering. And its
China who opened up to the West as a result. If you admit Marxism was
removed because it became irrelevant, than u admit that theres not way
those kids could have been taught Marxism at skool. If you think Marxism is
in practice in Korea in everything but name, then you have no idea what
Marxism is. Marxism would be the abolishment of the State itself.
Oh, so the United States then…..interesting.
Theres no mention of communism or M-L in their constituion. And the regime
doesnt claim to be.
One of Kim il Sung’s speeches on Juche: “Both in revolutionary struggle and
in construction work, we should firmly adhere to Marxist-Leninist
principles, applying them in a creative manner to suit the specific
conditions of our country and our national characteristics.” If you think
it’s not Stalin-ism, that is your opinion, but above shows it was his
intention and the foundation of Juche is Stalin-ism and Leninism. It is not
hard to find sung saying that. Again i didn’t mention Marx.
Thank you for interesting topics, we often tend to forget the fact that
real people are involved with “world politics”
아 골다병증…. 한국은 자랑스러운 나라지만 병이 많네요ㅠㅠ 우울증 골다병증 외로움 노력해야겠어요
Nationalist monarchy, N.korea is very national and as u know absolutely not
nice to foreigners, and they absolutely dont like them, and often wont
tolerate them, except as tourists of course since they bring money and help
spread propaganda :S Dont forget that N.korea ist very nationalistic to.
God Bless these people for making the sacriface pursuing a better life in
the south.
There’s no nead.
Well, it doesn’t really need to be in the constitution for you to learn
about an ideology in a social science class.
I agree, that’s the only solution to the problem. Some people will die but
as people say: “if you want an omelette, you gotta break some eggs”.
That’s not wrong on any level, it was China accusing Russia of revising
Marxist intentions, mostly over how to engage with capitalists that started
the split, border skirmishes were a result, not a cause. Marxism was in the
North Korean constitution, as was communism till 2009, it has only been
removed due to the fall of the Soviet Union. I said communism in most
things but name, based on Stalin, Lenin and Mao, i did not say North Korea
was Marxism in practice at all.
Funny fact both country went under three dictators. they were poor once
roles were reversed after 1990. By south korean dictators I mean
Presidential dictators. first was lee seung men, second was park jung
he(father of current president), and jun do hwan.
Border skirmishes werent a result, they were a separate issue in itself.
This and accusations of revisonism towards USSR led to the split. But it
was China who opened to the West as a result. Marxism ended after the
collapse of USSR, u admit that. So why are u saying its there in everything
but name? Whats being practiced in DPRK is cultism, fascism, & military
dictatorship. Not stalinism or leninism. All mentions which have also been
removed. The only ppl calling em communist is Western media.
The only reason Marxism has been removed from the constitution (it was in
the constitution till the 90’s, communism was in it till 2009), was that
the Soviet Union collapsed. They could no longer associate with a failed
ideology. They also renamed the system after the Sino-soviet split, but it
is still communism in most things but name, infact the sino-soviet split
was due to Russia opening up to the west, and China and Korea being pro
Stalinist (Hardline Communism).
I don’t consider myself about labels. You asked why the children would know
anything about communism when they were born under Juche, i mentioned,
using Sung’s own words, that Stalin and Lenin were the foundations of
Juche, so the kids know much more than most about the practical theories of
Communism. I agree that things like Maxism are labels for ideologies that
do not necessarily become a reality. The Communist Part of China is proof
of this with the gap between middle and lower class.
I wish I went to a boarding school. I was basically forgotten about. They
don’t take chances at that boarding school! They employ task masters as
well as teachers.
Kim Jung-Il is already dead
He passed away in December
We have been feeding the North Kporean beast for years. We should starve
them and maybe they will revolt. God bless the many who have fled and now
enjoy freedom in the South.
Myopic imperatives of Capitalists, each thinking they are going to make
profit, while growing investments reduce profit margins, and wage cuts
shrink markets into fail.. is not dependent on religion. I see from your
channel you are in Croatia.. consider Antisemitism was used in E. Europe to
deflect. Even if groups of bankers were playing the system.. it pales into
insignificance compared to the general myopia & scale of collapse or
sovereign, state treasuries as WW1 ended.
can we hurry the fck up and goto war with nkorea now? please?
It’s true, Juche involves worshiping it’s leader in a seemingly irrational
way. But that does not change much, the UK is still a Democracy, even
though our military swears an Oath to Queen and God, and it’s citizens are
subject to her crown.
Also, the reason Trotskyists and Stalinists hated each other is that Stalin
was a “bonapartist” meaning he betrayed those who funded him to power
(jews) and he made Communism a strictly Russian thing(connected to
patriotism) instead of a-national European like Lenin wanted. Trocky was
fiercely still following the original plan. . even before Bolsheviks, they
wanted to start the red wave in Germany but it failed miserably and
everyone leaned to the national-socialist side as a counter movement.
I trust that zone covers about every country you hate, so I’m sure it won’t
be a problem.
