Then, among other things, 46 years of “first world” imperialist pressures took its toll. And then those same imperialist states introduced neocolonial shock therapy and plundered the socialist commons.
I mean I’d say off the bat there’s so much more complicated than “it succeeded” or “it failed”.
Every system ever made can fail, with issues completely unrelated to the system.
Ignoring the government, would we call a developing nation implimenting a new system, before getting attacked by a massively stronger country with a different (or even the same system), a failure of the system.
Or getting destroyed by a natural disaster… or millions of other factors.
Secondly, just fucking horrible ideas within them. I have to give Lycenko huge parts of the economic woe’s of the soviet union. Likewise right now in capitalist America we can see RFK Jr’s health system and Trumps tarriff system as likely to wreck the shit of the USA.
Then what happened?
The undemocratic overthrow of the Soviet Union is what happened, and the imperialists won and got to plunder those countries and… shit sucks.
