@TapOnX Ah ok, I misunderstood your post's context then. Yes Bolshevik Communism was more or less fascism per se...meh it sucked...
-
What exactly do you mean? If you are saying that western democratic socialists are nothing like soviets, well - I never said otherwise (especially if you mean worker rights' activists in general). My point was that accepting support from Soviet Union would be at best hypocritical if not destructive for the whole idea. I don't need western propaganda to know that Warsaw Pact socialism was generally about oppression and mismanagement - I kind of come from the area.

@TapOnX You poor soul, ruined by western propaganda. The USSR was what is known as Authortarian Socialism, as in strong totalitarian government with a Socialist economy, worked wonders for the Russians because they are used to historically being oppressed by an over-powerful government/leader. Solidarity Forever and modern Socialists are "Liberal Socialists" as in they want the government to be 100% civilian controlled and worker's rights to be through the roof.

Oh, yeah - the USSR and other socialist countries treated their workers so well. So well, that independent trade unions were illegal, wages were usually frozen, and due to shortages, basic goods were barely available for common people. Actually, independent, underground trade unions were one of the major forces that brought this monstrosity down. Any "support" would be no more than a foreign empire using workers to fulfill its evil agenda.

Solidarity with the Verizon workers!
Let's hope Blackwater doesn't repeat what happened at the Homestead Strike.
