Socialism destroys whatever it touches. Blaming another country getting involved is a cop out as that happens to capitalist countries, however given that they’re innovation motivated rather than ideologically so they’re more peaceful. Socialism isolates.

what evidence do you have that capitalist countries are more peaceful? do you not understand that the conquest of the entire globe by a few european empires was motivated by economic expansion, namely the need for larger markets to export to?

Not even a socialist but this is stupid.. Western Europe loves war and so does the US. We’re the opposite of peaceful (peep the defense budget). Also the US is hardly capitalist at this point we’re a corporate Oligarchy, there isn’t much of a free market with the amount of monopolies and shit we have

Yep👍 look at the USSR and Cuba. Only time it works is 1) capitalist reforms (like China) and 2) hella capitalism, like the Scandi countries… which have tonssss of billionaires and super low corporate taxes

The united states was the only country left after WWII with heavy industrialization infrastructure intact. The USSR was severely damaged by WWII. Then the US proceeded to sanction the USSR for 50 years. A war that kills 27 million of your citizens followed by half a century of sanctions by a superpower tends to make a country poor
