The caricature in your head of Socialism in practice does not exist. I recommend you read Anticommunism & Wonderland, which despite its title does show a nuanced view of the Soviet Union.
no thanks, I like my free speech
The proper response to being offered something to read, indeed.
You don't really have free speech in Capitalism, all of the important media is entirely controlled by private interests to begin with. Further, with what freedoms we do have, why deliberately plug your ears? Do you just want the freedom to ignore inconvenient truths?
What the fuck is up with you people its like you only want to cry about the scary thing you're so afraid of but won't read anything about how it may not be so scary
You're like a child who won't eat their peas because they are green.
You don't have free speech either way. And in capitalism you may not even know that you don't have free speech
I like when nazis don't have free speech
what a cowardly thing to say. you could have just walked away, but your fragile ego wasn't done humiliating you.
