Was the French Commune a legitimate example of full communism?

I always thought it was funny how reactionaries will say "that example doesn't count, it is short lived" when short-lived socialist successes were invariably violently suppressed by reactionary forces.

Their end is what all commies need so, yeah.

pretty much, yeah

shit, meant for

Why do you hate workers?

You probably support policies that directly harm you.

Every single one of those didn't last a generation. The only one that did was Tito and it wasn't even "Muh true form"

EZLN have been around since 94', that's 22 years. Good enough for you?

You need post scarcity to get muh true form.

Why? Because reactionaries who hated workers destroyed them violently

I never got this picture

Why does it praise communism and then somehow say the Soviet Union somehow was anti communism?

Leftists are so fucking hypocritical

Because it was? That's like complaining about DPRK not being D, P R, or K.

>all these die hard communists who practiced communism SECRETLY DID SOMETHING ELSE

ok western teenager I'm sure you're right and every communist on the planet is actually a liar

Pt. 1

Wouldn't a socialist society be even more repressive against antisocial people than the present consumerist-capitalist one? Just think about this (presuming it were "real" socialism). Presently, your work at the office depends on two things; your performance, and your ability to follow basic social etiquette. Your boss can fire you, as can HR in cases where you're not getting along with other employees and giving them trouble, etc.

Now imagine that suddenly your boss is gone and the workplace is owned collectively by the employees. Stacey in the adjacent cubicle has a girlfriend who's down on her luck and looking for a new job and she thinks you're a creep anyway and believes your white male privilege will help you get a new job effortlessly. Besides, you need to be taught a lesson about what it's like to have real struggles just like all the people your ancestors oppressed. Stacey tells this to Chad and he agrees that it would be better if you were gone.

Chad thinks you're kind of a stiff. After all, you're usually quiet at the meetings, you keep to yourself, don't talk about sports with the guys at lunch break. He thinks you don't fit the company culture and Stacey's friend (who happens to be single) is a better fit. At lunch, instead of discussing UFC, Chad approaches Tyrone about getting rid of you.

Pt. 2

Tyrone says you're a wack ass cracker because when the two of you met, you didn't know how to dap. You're too quiet and never laugh when he jokes about girls' asses at work, Tyrone remarks; you might even be a homo. He also suspects that you might be a racist because one time you ratted him out for smoking ganja in the toilet.

As the Tyrone and Chad spend the rest of the lunch break discussing your many failings, L'Chaim Pretzelbaum listens to the conversation. Chaim works in accounting, like you, but you have a much more senior position. He wonders if he has a shot at filling your vacant spot in case you get fired.

At the next monthly employee plenum, your termination is proposed. You are accused of sexual harassment of coworkers, rudeness, and racism; Chaim from accounting even remarks that he once heard you uttering antisemitic remarks under your breath as he walked by your cubicle. It is decided that you are to be fired with no benefits in a vote that is essentially a popularity contest. Stacey's friend Samantha, who graduated from her local community college with a degree in African Basket Weaving and English, is hired immediately to fill the senior position that you spent years to reach.

All this happened because you couldn't make small talk about UFC.

>uses /r9k/ memes to prove a point
Why not use rage comics next time?

Wouldn't a democratic society be even more repressive against antisocial people than a totalitarian one? Just think about this (presuming it were "real" democracy). Presently, your lot in life depends on two things; your servitude, and your ability to follow the dictator. The dictator can kill you, as can oligarchs in cases where you're not getting along with other peasants and giving them trouble, etc.

Now imagine that suddenly your dictator is gone and the government is run collectively by the peasants. Stacey next door has a girlfriend who's down on her luck and looking for a new place and she thinks you're a creep anyway and believes your white male privilege will help you get a new job effortlessly. Besides, you need to be taught a lesson about what it's like to have real struggles just like all the people your ancestors oppressed. Stacey tells this to Chad and he agrees that it would be better if you were gone.

Chad thinks you're kind of a stiff. After all, you're usually quiet at the meetings, you keep to yourself, don't talk about sports with the guys at lunch break. He thinks you don't fit the society and Stacey's friend (who happens to be single) deserves your stuff. At lunch, instead of discussing UFC, Chad approaches Tyrone about getting rid of you.

Tyrone says you're a wack ass cracker because when the two of you met, you didn't know how to dap. You're quiet, Tyrone remarks; you might even be a homo. He also suspects that you might be a racist because one time you ratted him out for smoking ganja in the toilet.

At the next election, your execution is proposed. You are accused of sexual harassment of coworkers, rudeness, and racism. It is decided that you are to be killed and your estate seized in a vote that is essentially a popularity contest. Stacey's friend Samantha, who graduated from her local community college with a degree in African Basket Weaving and English, moves into your flat that you spent years to earn.

All this happened because you couldn't make small talk about UFC.

le tyranny of le majority

Even the ancients used archetypes in storytelling. Nothing was new since the Greeks.

>Communist is perfect

But somehow

>Communism is such a weak delicate flower that the meany capitalists stomp it every time it comes to fruition

Communism isn't perfect, it's just better. But a communist poor country is still going to be worse than a monarchy rich country.

>it's just better.

You say that, but at least capitalism has porn and doesn't feature some dickhead commisar with a stick up his ass sending you to go be slave labour because you coughed at a statue of comrade Lenin once

That's Bolshevism comrade. That's the weird shit that people make up when they try to go straight to socialism without ever having had a democratic government.

Socialism is more fragile than liberalism because it scares not only the aristocracy, but also the bourgeoisie

The Russian Empire was just as repressive as what replaced it, if not moreso

Very few communists think their communist should look anything like the USSR under Stalin

>glorifying Dubcek

You're truly retarded

In Russian empire the punishment for criminals was draconian while the punishment for political prisoners was lenient

In the USSR punishment for criminals was lenient and punishment for political prisoners was draconian

Really makes you think

Capitalists btfo

It's blatantly obvious you don't what communism is.

The soviet union was socialist, never communist. And it never claimed to be.

Everything is good there but Chavez...... Why tho?

Chavez was based tho .

youtube.com/watch?v=mJumwvO2DrA

Tbqh he was good during his first years of ruling, but then he became a corrupt asshole who led his country to Somolia 2.0. He could could have resign in 2004

full communism doesnt happen until you pass through socialism first, because the technology isn't there yet (or certainly wasn't in the 19th century) to get past scarcity.

>Oliver Stone

Into the trash it goes

why?

Tupi guarani were communists in their own way, and then the Jesuist reductions adopted it for a while.

Nigga what

Dostoevsky got five years hard labor simply for being a socialist

>hard labor
>spent his days in a comfy dacha working on his writing

No but Jonestown was and then they all killed themselves

The Paris Commune burned down the Paris City Hall, containing the archives on all the births, marriages and deaths of every Parisian going back to the Middle Ages. They then burned down the Palace of Justice, which contained the back-up copy of those archives. Likewise they burned down the historic Library of the City of Paris. They also burned down the Tuileries Palace, the Library of the Louvre, the Palais-Royal, the Orsay Palace (including the Court of Audit), the Police Prefecture, the Palace of Finance, the Palace of the Legion of Honour, the house of Prosper Mérimée along with many of his books and his entire correspondence, as well as part of the Lyon Station.

They also intended to burn down the Sainte-Chapelle (which they had already covered in petrol), the Notre Dame Cathedral (which was only saved when interns from the Hotel-Dieu Hospital put out the fire), the Library of the Arsenal, and the National Archive.
