NoJustice.Nopeace Komsomol application

I believe, in my rather short time here, I have proven to have a firm grasp of socialism as well as class conflict, and, if it is in question, i can [try to] prove that i am committed to the proletarian struggle for emancipation.

I voted yes. You can vote for yourself, too.

I believe that would be a bit biased, no? I'll let the others on this site decide if i'm suited.

But thank you.

Your loss.

You better vote YES, it will look good on the stats!

Exactly, you already have 1 no vote. Btw, who was that? Reveal yourself, no-voter!

I don't mind if i don't get in, so it's alright. The problem is the lack of recognition the thread is getting. I think people just look at the latest post and not each of the threads within a forum. I don't mind not getting in, i mind that not enough people are giving their opinion. As long as it's democratically decided by an ample amount of voters, i will abide by the decision made (that's part of being a democrat, eh?).

haha, maybe nillerz. We haven't really gotten along so far.

Nillerz is such an annoying ron paulite.

Haha, does he really support Ron Paul? That's funny. It's funny that all of Ron Paul's backing believe there's some sort of american revolution in the works. The only american revolution that'll happen in the next 35 years or so will be led by Chevy...

Ron Paul? lol, he dropped out of teh race. XD

nillerz is the definition of "pure capitalist". He only cares for himself.

And I voted yes. ^^

Ya, which makes it even more ridiculous that they believe he began a revolution, haha.

And what was his following, a couple hundred thousand tops? And it's not even armed! What do a these people hope to achieve through reform with such a petty following? haha, good luck.

It's been over a week and over seven positive votes, should the poll be closed and my test be assigned?

Yes, but of course kenzu won't let you in. Just like he didn't let mark in because he's black.

Hmm, i guess we'll see.

What's your evidence to support Kenzu's racism?

2 people on here have openly admitted to being black
1 mark-he was denied entry to komsomol
2 nillerz-the only one kenzu has put on trial

100% of black people here have been mistreated. Coincidence? I think not! There is no justice in the capitlist kenzu's coutrs!

Was there no reason provided by Kenzu?

I don't think that's mistreatment, i think Kenzu took what nillerz was saying out of proportion.

mark misspelled komsomol in the thing, BUT mark changed it. He could not, however, change it in the poll, where he spelled it wrong also. Kenzu said he would probably let him in anyway. Then mark said he was black. No admittance, now, of course.

But isn't he up for admittance again? If he's denied again, i'll believe you.

Lol I'm just kidding. People are so gullible these days...

Noticed someone voted no after the poll (should've been) ended.

Officially it ended at 9-1-1 respectively.

Now it's at 9-2-1.

This post is merely to put a date on the results for when Kenzu returns.

Explain communism in at least one sentence:

Communism is a stateless, classless society with a gift economy wherein people work according to their ability, and are cared for according to their need. Ideally, money is done away with and there is free access to any service you require or desire.

Explain socialism in at least one sentence:

Socialism holds two meanings. The first is as the umbrella category for all anarchists and communists. The second, and the one i believe this question pertains to, is as a transitionary state between capitalism and communism. It is a period in which the masses are educated, the industries are nationalized, and the states power begins to dwindle until a state of abundance is achieved.

1.5p
socialism doesnt necessarily lead to communism, some people have the goal of achieving socialism without continuing to achieve communism

Explain capitalism in at least one sentence:

Capitalism is a form of economy in which some members of society produce, and others own the means of production. Capitalism must have, to survive, surplus labor, to some extent, one instance of expropriation of the means of production (and perpetuation of the capitalist system thereon), a class that owns the means, and a class who sells their labor in order to produce and subsist. A monopoly on violence helps to keep everyone in line, but is not completely necessary.

Explain democracy in at least one sentence:

Democracy is rule by the majority. In government, it is used to suppress all other classes while at the same time fronting a facade of freedom. In government it is implemented through 'free' elections of delegates who have authority on behalf of those he 'serves'.

2p
excellent!

Name at least one communist country:

I suppose this is a trick question since communism does not exist. There are those countries, like China, North Korea, Vietnam and Cuba who aspire to communism, but are not close to accomplishing it as it stands.

How many communist countries exist currently?

Again, none are truly communist, but if i had to take a swing at how many are aspiring socialist states, i would have to say there are five. The four i listed above and, add to the list, Laos.

2p
none of them call themselves communist, so you should not even use the word "truly" if you refer to them, they are socialist by constitution atmost.

What kind of economic system is there currently in EU countries?
(type the name of the system)

I'm not familiar with the European Union, but i have seen nothing to tell me that they are not capitalist. My answer is capitalist.

1p
partially right. EU has a system inbetween socialism and capitalism called social democracy.

Give a scenario when each of the following is bad:
dictatorship, democracy

Dictatorship, in my opinion, is always bad, whether it is of the minority or the majority. You can not force your will upon those who do not want it. Dictatorship was surely bad under the reign of the Nazis in Germany. Rule by one man led them to do cruel and inhumane things as they followed Hitler blindly into war and genocide.



Democracy is the rule or the majority. Like i said, i don't believe in forcing your will upon others, majority or not. People are free thinking and capable of making rational decisions for themselves. Democracy is bad when it is used to supress people of a certain class just because it is the will of the majority, or those elected by the majority.

1p
dictatorship can be good if there is a benevolent dictator, which seldomly happens.
democracy part is correct

What are the strengths and weaknesses of free market and centrally planned economy. (name at least one strength and one weakness for each.)

One strength of a free market economy is that it allows for economic prosperity of a nation.

One weakness is that, by its nature, it must oppress and exploit one class, the working class, in order to make such profits.

1.5p
you could have also mentioned market failure, that's for example too little health care and education services produced, because they cannot be afforded by many people if not centrally owned by a state.

One strength of a centrally planned economy is that it is quick to answer to the needs of the country and its countrymen. Since all power to decide is in the hands of the government, there is no delay on taking action when an economic hurdle appears.

A weakness of a centrally planned economy is that it is left wide open for corruption since the power is in the hands of a few elected (or not) officials who make decisions on behalf of the people. It does not allow for the input of the community, thus it is possible that officials may extort the economy for their own personal gain.

1p
actually centrally planned economy responds slower to changes than market economy. A strenght of this economy is that it can create safe jobs and guarante a decent living standard for all people while guaranteeing them all jobs.
