A slide titled "Concept in Action: Universal Access" with a houses emoji. A short paragraph explains the concept using the example of a city building standard, functional apartments for every citizen to eliminate homelessness, rather than allowing luxury penthouses.
A slide titled "The Cons: Authoritarianism & Inefficiency" with a warning triangle emoji. It lists three major real-world flaws: the suppression of individual rights by strict governments, a lack of incentive stifling innovation, and the inefficiency of centralized planning leading to shortages.
A slide titled "The Role of Foreign Intervention" with a stop sign emoji. It highlights how capitalist superpowers actively destabilized left-leaning movements to protect corporate interests, detailing devastating proxy wars where millions actively fought and died, and Western-backed coups in places like the Congo and Latin America.
A slide titled "Communism Today: The Year 2026" with a globe network emoji. The text notes that today, only five nations officially remain communist: China, Cuba, Laos, Vietnam, and North Korea.
From Marx’s vision of a classless society to the harsh realities of authoritarianism & devastating proxy wars where millions actively fought & died. We explore the pros of universal access & the massive impacts of Western sabotage. 🧵 ⅔

I still scratch my head every time someone talks about America as a democracy. Really, sweety? 🙄
