Was the USSR Socialist
A drier video than usual, but definitely a necessary one. A quick point by point discussion on what is commodity production, its existence under various modes of production, and its sometimes necessary (albeit unsavory) continuation into Socialism. The gist of the video? Material conditions! We're Marxists, and must analyze things based on their material conditions. Commodity production is not a button to press on or off, and certain realities of especially third-world nations make it practically impossible to immediately abolish commodity production short of stopping production entirely (real Pol Pot hours? 🤔). Cease the dogmatism, and realize that Socialism is a process, not a set of affairs to be established. Love you all.
