You're illiterate, hang yourself

Socialism leads to communism you retard

According to idealists. I don't give a shit about someone's fantasies. You will never convince everyone to work communally without State-backed enforcement.

Look up the definition of communism yourself. Its stateless, propertyless and moneyless

Stalin would have you splitting rocks in a tundra, and he'd be right for it too

I know that but I don't understand how a system where an authoritative government is necessary to distribute capital would be anarchism

What does the soviet union have to do with anything I said? They weren't communist.

Because you don't achieve anarchy over night. You have to go through socialism and communism first. You can be an anarchist and still believe that the state is necessary to ultimately achieve it.

>not realizing that people in power won't give up their power and that whoever successfully overthrows those in power receive the power
haha

Please baby jesus, make that op is just having a laugh and that this isn't actually his life

If this is a pasta it's a new one, I've never seen it before.

Not an argument. Who are you to judge what is possible and what isn't. This is supposed to be a society that has reached such rationality that there is no more room for change. We aren't talking about 1910s Russia

Yeah, they were fascists coz they did bad things and were mean to gays.

Now hang yourself

For real!! B8

Not an argument. Look up the definition of communism and tell me how it applied to Stalins USSR.

Not an argument?
>The sky is blue
>not an argument, the sky is green

You just didn't get Marx. Yes, he wanted to destroy the state, but his definition of state wasn't "central public power", he meant the bourgeoise state. Also, both the ussr and Marx, similarly to hitler, wanted to plasm humanity, creating the ubermensch or a new soviet man-humans who could transcend the human condition, new men free of vice, capable, in the case of Marx, of living in stateless society. Basically a bunch of metaphisical bs.

Look up the first international

Look up history.
Realpolitik is the way

How does that prove the USSR was communist?

I still don't understand this. Anarchism is the abolition of the state, right? But Socialism is an authoritarian ideology that completely controls the economy.

communism wants all the power to be held by the state. Anarchism wants the opposite of this

socialism =/= communism
communist theory =/= USSR

>communist is the perfect system
>communist states are nightmarish failures
>communist states are not communist or my narrative would collapse.

Every time

and this is how you differentiate between the left and the right. the further left, the more power it wants to the state.

the further right, the more power it wants to the individual.

>This whole Jewish world, comprising a single exploiting sect, a kind of blood sucking people, a kind of organic destructive collective parasite, going beyond not only the frontiers of states, but of political opinion, this world is now, at least for the most part, at the disposal of Marx on the one hand, and of Rothschild on the other... This may seem strange. What can there be in common between socialism and a leading bank? The point is that authoritarian socialism, Marxist communism, demands a strong centralisation of the state. And where there is centralisation of the state, there must necessarily be a central bank, and where such a bank exists, the parasitic Jewish nation, speculating with the Labour of the people, will be found.

Try to guess who wrote this without googlin it.

A little tip: It's not from pol and it's not from a nazi, a fascist or a reactionary

not him but I'm pretty sure that's bakounine

Is it sad that I'm actually jelly of this b8? Seems like a breddy gud life T B H.

Exactly user. So, anti-semitism aside, we can see that the most important, influential theorist of anarchism with Proudhon considered Marxist socialism authoritarian and thought he required a strong centralised state.

In other words, op btfo

*it required

Have you gotten to the part where your girl ends up fucking some sporty meathead who turns her on primally or are you not there just yet?

Also, it's Bakunin

you're very new.

Bakunin was a cryptoblanquist: just as bad as Marx.
