That'll happen when you say out of touch things.

I've tried many times but it just falls on deaf ears. It's not worth the effort.

I've repeatedly dissed the Soviet model

I don't believe in Socialism in One State

I don't even think it's a particularly valid interpretation of Marx
He’s not worth it. He hasn’t said one thing since he came back that isn’t straight out of middle school civics, citizenship, and history classes verbatim on the curriculum. He’s probably the dullest thinker in MB history. Drugs.

you were arguing that their rapid growth was evidence of the efficacy of their command economy. I'm not saying you are advocating for taking the soviet route, but you (and Wolff) seem to be using that rapid industrialization as a pro communist talking point.

it's to historically show that the idea that command economies don't work as far as economic growth is demonstrably false

it's not in support of any of them

the left hardly believes economic growth is The Most important thing like the right does
Yes but so far they only have been shown to "work" as a way to rapidly industrialize an agrarian society by robbing the peasants of their farm yields. Which once again is basically a pretty meaningless achievement with regard to how to construct an actual, functioning communist utopia.

You try to tell him multiple times to his face (so to speak) that a statistic about only people making $7.25 or below isn't representative of poverty and he just kinda bulldozes over it and shoots rainbows out of his ass into your eyes.
