"Israel is the only democracy in the middle east" is Zionist propaganda, Israel being one isn't.
In terms of the government being the representative of the people Israel is probably one of the most democratic countries in the world.
@BadMouse101@RadicalShibaLP@cinemarxist_@alejandvc1@chlorbee 700k was 1/3 of the entire party, now do keep in mind that vast majority of the total party members weren't in position of power, nor could they ever actually pose a threat to Stalin and his faction.
USSR was largely a bureaucracy, low level party members had almost no impact..
@cinemarxist_@BadMouse101@RadicalShibaLP@alejandvc1@chlorbee Most conservative estimate and it's literally the estimate from the black book of communism lmao.
Yes, some party members were killed, more were imprisoned, and even more were removed from the party...
@BadMouse101@RadicalShibaLP@cinemarxist_@alejandvc1@chlorbee Overestimated numbers coming from black book of communism.
Just using critical thinking is enough to see how absurd the notion of 700k party members were important enough to Stalin to be concerned over them
@RadicalShibaLP@cinemarxist_@alejandvc1@BadMouse101@chlorbee That's the theoretical part, if the particular party actually adheres to vanguardism is a different conversation.
Historically only examples of a Leninist partly stopping working the interest of the proletariat was when the party fell to revisionism
@cinemarxist_@alejandvc1@BadMouse101@chlorbee What does it mean for the proletariat to disagree with the party?
Does the party go against the interest of the proletariat? In that it's either doing an awful job or being compromised.
Leninism doesn't believe in absolute democracy...
@YoungSamRespect@Dispropoganda Kim has a similar political lore to a British monarch.
Both parties that lead the two countries have popular support, and Cuba has the same level of freedom as any western country, people are more than free to speak ill of party.
Do your research
@GZidrik@Dispropoganda China has lifted 800 million people out of poverty.
More than every other country combined.
Cuba managed to survive and retain autonomy while the strongest world power did everything it could to destroy it.
DPRK did the same
