It wasn't real Socialism.

New Zealand and Canada are just fine unless you are a racialist, in which case Canada has problems, but those are post-structural issues, not socialist issues. The USSR's problems both early and late didnt stem from multinationalism.

Incompetent/Kleptocratic Socialism = Incompetent/Kleptocratic Capitalism

Not that anon but you are in actual denial if you think any of those are fully socialist nations.

PragerU is fo sho my favorite right-wing propaganda outlet

I wish there was an equivalent for it on the left but I'm stuck watching Cenk Uyger pontificate about an issue he invariably doesn't know anything about while only ever willing to report on facts that comport with his worldview

>fully socialist
if you have socialized welfare states with socialized medicine and socialized education and housing, just because private business ownership is allowed doesnt change where it is on the left right scale.

This guy is hilarious, he doesn't even know Canada and New Zealand have a housing crisis that makes places like the Bay Area and New York look like a utopian paradise for home owning.

Franco did all of those for example, implemented them in Spain like the Social Security than it's used today.

>>9952687
great post you really know your stuff.

>>9952709
Did Franco's socialized medicine also have 3 week wait times to see a Doctor and several months to see a specialist? because that's what we have to deal with in Socialist Europe.

>>9952669
Nothing in Canada that is socialized is fine. I assure you.
