    The abolition of commodity production isn’t merely a theoretical end-goal to be approached leisurely in about a century. It’s a concrete necessity that directly confronts the core mechanisms sustaining global capitalism. This isn’t an esoteric, remote future concern, but an immediate challenge to be addressed. I almost honestly can’t believe I have to type out something so utterly basic but I guess that’s par for the course with tankies and the like.

      The material reality of each country calls for specific actions according to the specific needs of that territory, there is no ordered check list a socialist country needs to achieve to be considered one.

        Right. Who needs “revolutionary principles”- quaint notions like the international overthrow of class society, when you can just hoist a few red flags and slap a “socialist” label on your national policy? I’ll throw out all my books and subscribe to comrade Assad’s youtube channel right away. Thanks for enlightening me.
