How do you have Leninism without Marxism?

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year ago

Can someone explain this to me:

Marxism= based on theory of Marx

Leninism= based on Lenin's theories

Marxism-Leninism= an amalgam between both, created by Stalin

Why not call it stalinism?

I thought he was a fasco-capitalst masquerading as a Marxist-Leninist?

I hope you're kidding. Or are we in for another 300 comment struggle session on /c/memes?

Fasco-capitalst is an exaggeration, but there's no way a country intentionally keeping the standard of living of the working class that low, just to remain as the world's sweatshop is Marxist-Leninist nation.

Fascinating. I've often seen very video game-esque simplifications of complex geopolitical and economic situations, but to think all Xi has to do to fix the standard of living is just turn a slider up like in a video game! Doesn't he know that the 10% happiness boost the people get will outweigh the additional income cost per turn, especially in the long run? And he hasn't even started trying to build any world wonders smh.

Happiness slider is inefficient he should be trading for luxuries and spending his gold to buy techs smh

intentionally keeping the standard of living of the working class that low

Let's see:

Over the past 40 years, the number of people in China with incomes below $1.90 per day – the International Poverty Line as defined by the World Bank to track global extreme poverty– has fallen by close to 800 million

China’s battle against poverty has benefited the largest number of people in human history

That truly sounds like hell
