I want a dev to test Communism with those open world survival crafting games or MMORPGs. No matter how much people grind or craft it all gets redistributed to people who did nothing. Players can take your equipment and materials without penalty and if you try to defend them, you get punished.

anyway, regarding communism themed games
I was disappointed that Atomic Heart didn't lean into it harder, I'd be cool with some unironic soviet-nostalgia-wank.
It could have also gone the Bioshock route of examining the contradictions, and that would have been fun too. But we got some bland sci-fi with some red paint instead.

There'd be a lot more of it with a much wider breadth of content since there would be no pressure to smooth games out to suit a mass market.
Larger projects would still exist but would be far less common and built more like Valve games than the traditional AAA pipeline.

I imagine games would stagnate a lot. Creative pressure is an unwieldy beast when taken at the collective level. The top down drive to make something happen to beat the other guy can turn into quickly made slop, but it can also lead to genuinely great results. Absent that pressure youโ€™d get I guess forever development passion projects released in perpetual beta states with no full releases, unless the state itself was the demanding driver commanding from the top down that games be made in a certain way or by a certain time. But then the question would be what does the state even want from a game anyhow? Answer is propaganda more than likely, or a teaching tool to create a more effective worker which would make all games just awful. The upside would be no need to nickel and dime the consumer, pop culture slop appeal (Fortnite skins, CoD skins) would be reduced if not eliminated, and the games you would get would either be cheap or free depending on how money would actually work within this proposed system. Or games would just be used to pacify the populace and as a vent for the competitive and aggressive tendencies of male youth, but theyโ€™d have to have some kind of intensive haptic feedback system or extreme competitive system in their design.

Because of things already mentioned >>717361392. Game development might stagnate a lot. I guess if we are talking about post-scarcity "fully automated luxury space communism" acsess to super advanced AI systems might make developing games so easy that anyone can do it and that might result in a lot of slop but also some really great games too. If we are at the point of having a benevolent AGI it might make games for us.

The problem is that he never wrote about how that system would work only that there is no class and that everyone owns the means of production. So it's probably a sandbox multiplayer game that you are looking for.

Here's the thing: that pressure you're talking about has LIMITED games rather than resulting in innovation.
Profit motive is why games are beset by patent trolls on all sides, why all the talent is forced to work on garbage chasing trends that will fall out of favor years before release, and why anything unique or complicated gets ground down to nothing.
It's why the L4D AI director and Shadow of War Nemesis systems languish in IP prison, never to be used.
It's why three companies bought every single developer studio.

games would be nothing more than a political tool subject to rigorous restrictions and examinations for disloyalty to the party (heresy) and anyone who failed them would be tortured then imprisoned or killed for trying to endanger utopia (consorting with the devil)
Games would exist on a limited basis as rewards and indoctrination and education tools that completely replace parenting and the education system.


Meanwhile, the ultra-rich would still enjoy the same shit as normal, doing whatever they wanted, private tutors, etc.

He fully believed that he could blindly rip out a bunch of "mystery stuff" and replace it with something better despite having no idea what it did.

There are times when that is true, but those innovations were made for those games regardless and they were made so as to gain an edge over a competitor. What would be the reason for developing those advanced AI systems or a nemesis system in a communist game environment? You're not trying to make your game better than someone elses to sell more, you would just do it I suppose at the idealistic level to make the best game that you can possibly make. But if that's your ideal, when do you stop developing the game? When is it good enough to release? You could endlessly develop, never release a full game, get paid anyways, and just never see it through to the end.
And besides IPs are a state intervention into the market anyways. They are protected by the state, patented within state offices etc. An argument could be made also that a more free market would mean less IP protections as that would mean less state involvement, making your point moot.

Like China essnetilly. Where no one is allowed (nor would want to because of demoralization) to make anything artistic including videogames our of fear and the only "game" being "made" are just government funded, written, vetted projects. Also you need a "business license" in China to sell anything which pretty much kills any initiative people could've had.

I agree with you mostly. I know profit motivates though. I don't see a large group of people coming together to work on a massive AAA scale project without some other incentive than 'artistic impulse'. I believe art for arts sake only applies to the individual level and there is only so much one person can do. Big games need a huge amount of man hours across various disciplines.

I'll try to respond genuinely. If profits stopped being the main factor driving game creation, we would most likely see the death of gacha, lootboxes and endless safe sequels. Now, the huge question is whether the communist "utopia" has everyones needs covered automatically, so noobody actually has to work or people still HAVE to work. If people have to work it is more than likely that the collective would punish artists that aren't producing works for the collective benefit i.e. things that are niche and not popular. So, expect huge, finely crafted platformers, shooters and so on, made by large passionate teams, but less authorial and subversive art.

Karl marx didn't envision anything except wine and gay sex. He didn't believe a single word of that shit he wrote. He wrote it as a commission to make some money for booze.

Communism was designed as a social weapon of mass destruction from day one. It has no other possible outcomes except which was observed in Russia or China, because this is what it was created for, to convince retards to engage in grievous self harm because it will totally make an actual utopian idea come true.

Shut up if you havent even read his bullshit, please.
He proposed a retarded 4 step plan for utopia, once you distill his ramblings on what he thought should be done down.
step 1: revolution
step 2: restructure society (aka enact total fascism in order to have the needed control over the people and force them to comply)
step 3:??????? (somehow make the magic stuff happen lol?
step 4: having brought about utopia, the fascist overlord government with literally unlimited power will "wither away" naturally as it is "no longer necessary

His stupid fucking plan is exactly what every communist country has done, and they all went the same way at step 2.

I don't see how work itself could ever actually be eliminated. How to do you perfectly automate food or water production? Someone has to be involved to oversee it's distribution, or do the manual labor involved in farming, cutting, packaging, transporting,etc. If it's all just robots farming, and robots building robots, and robot AIs managing robots to make this all work out. Then someone work would still have be done at at least a high level to determine in what direction the robots should turn their focus to meet the greatest need or the greatest good, which would would require some amount of human participation. And if anything like a passion project were created, well then of course people would get involved as robots have no passion to begin with.

Well, for a utopian classless society you'd likely not want games that show different classes, so things like TF2 and any traditional RPG wouldn't be allowed.
It'd probably emphasize either meaningless abstract games or hyper narrative games where the player has little control over how the character and story develops.

Its a hilarious read because he comes off as such a spoiled brat.
My favorite is still his idea that using company profits to give your workers better tools so they can produce more with the same or less labor is "stealing" from them.
Knowing the backstory (and fake job) of his retarded friend who was his sole source of info on how companies and factories actually worked makes it even funnier.

It's not like profit motive entirely disappears under socialism. "No private property" is talking about land, not objects.
The primary difference in employment would be that you aren't forced to work a job you despise to survive, you can choose a job that meets a balance of needs. People with programming skill and a desire for luxuries will still partner up and sell games.

communism never failed, it is just being challenged by the aggressive westurd imperialist empire, but will win under your lifetime
China already overtook the west in both RnD and manufacturing, and they will inevitable overtake the uncontested leading position in the world in a decade or two
the west will inevitably crash under it's debt (which is already growing faster than it's economy) as the taps of underpaid resources from global south will dry up, and the taps of overpaid rent from monopolies will be challenged by Chinese industry
the west can no longer contain China's development or defeat them in a conventional war

you will have free/cheap housing, healthcare, education, good public services, low crime rates, no mass migrations or constant wars, and there is nothing you can do about it anymore

From looking at his actual biography?

>Decadent alcoholic and homosexual

Why would he even take that drivel about "workers" seriously? It is unlikely that he ever saw an actual worker with his own eyes, not to mention actually thinking about them.
It's even worse with Engels, since he was a rich business owner.

Marxist class struggle theory crashes when applying it to its own authors.
A worker who works against his class interests is called a scab, and it is given that he does to for egoistic personal benefit. But how would you call people of capitalist class working against their own class interests, and what motivates them? Even pre-schoolers won't believe tales about genuine altruism.

>There will be a point in history where human labor loses all it's value
I would have to agree with the other anons itt that we will only reach this point if we manage to achieve post-scarcity, and who knows how many centuries or even millennia we are from that possible future.
>if the main driving force of the world is profit
I believe that the profit motive will erode first before the issue of finite resources does. In fact, shedding the profit motive is the most sure fire way that humanity will be able to unite and achieve post-scarcity.
I think that although the profit motive has been the grease in the wheels up to this point that it wonโ€™t always be. I believe the Information Age weโ€™re living though right now could possibly begin to affect that change within a couple of generations.

That's why I didn't focus on that scenario. But in theory, we could achieve post scarcity society within reasonable limits. Like, most people nowadays are not at any risk of starvation. If we could create fully automatic farms, road renewal and so on we could most likely expect that there would be enough people that would just WANT to maintain it all, while everyone else could just do fuck all, including making some shitty games no one would ever want to play.
But realistically people would still have to work. So, you won't be able to just do nothing, or even pursue your passions if the public at large is not interested in what you're making.

what you are talking about is the process in which as productivity increases certain goods and services become so cheap and ubiquitous, we can take them for granted, but scarcity will always exist in some form due to how human preferences work

Maybe it's you who doesn't know shit.
Socialism is a religion for all intents and purposes. "Karl Marx" who people get taught about is not an actual Karl Marx that once lived, it's a mythological character with a carefully cultivated image. The actual Karl Marx can only be reconstructed from extrapolation of available details, and very few people look into that. Even assumed "wrongthinkers" never bother, since they got a juicy tasty fact about how he was a joo, which is apparently everything one needs to know. I've never seen anyone pointing at obvious conclusion that the jewish family was his adoptive family. And that goes for any other faced of his life.

Have you people literally never seen any actual socialist policy positions
Have you never once heard of UBI
You don't need to eliminate labor and possessions, you eliminate private property and the need to work to achieve baseline survival.
People like to be useful, people like contributing to their community, people like making things, people like buying things. You can have an entire capitalist system for art and luxuries on top of the provided basics.
Not only is this better for everyone involved except the currently ultra-wealthy in direct and obvious ways it also provides real incentives to improve pay and conditions for the most essential work - if people aren't struggling to survive you can't exploit them to do things like farming and child care for pennies.

no, the USSR collapsed because it was a retarded shitshow that tried to micromanage its economy down to individual prices per town with a single centralized committee, tried to outdo america in an economic war it was DWARFED in by the space race, and because the entire time it was unable to feed itself.
the USSR was running on literal feudal serf slave labor for its crops until the 70's, whereupon it had to free them because they were SO depressed they weren't having sex and their population had plummeted.
this resulted in even MORE of their population dropping as most of them instantly took their freedom and fucked off from the farms.

so if China is so communist and successful, why can I start a business there
and own a house or a car
and why does poverty still exist in China
and what problems does communist China not have that we in the decadent West do have that can only be resolved by switching to communism

someone mentioned patent squatting before, and yeah that's annoying. I don't like patent squatting. You can't prove it doesn't exist in China though. In the West, I am free to develop around it. I -could- develop the schememsis systemesis and sell it and 2k or whoever it is could sue me but then we'd have an answer on the real status of the nemesis system. Meanwhile, if I tried to develop the sinosis hansystem in China, I'd get shot for impersonating a national treasure

tl;dr: the shortcomings of capitalism are only ever temporary because it is ultimately a system that excels when fraternity is concerned and at its worst will only ever slow to a crawl under gluttony. Yes, gluttony. Not greed. Greed is good because it's really hard to fuck up paying people to do something to get you more of something; whether those people -should- be agreeing to your terms of exchange is a different story and falls under the fraternity vs gluttony argument.

The only reason they hate commies and why you are being brainwashed to hate them usually with blatant lies is because commies don't want to let westurds exploit the global south, which is the real source of the "capitalist" success story of the west, and why all the other capitalist countries are piss poor. The capitalist west just learned to outsource their poverty and underpaid labour to other regions, making it look like their people under capitalist rule live under decent standards, but this is a delusion of you only focusing on a minority of the capitalist world order, and one that is unsustainable even for the wealthy minority

China was propped up by the West as a counterbalance to the SU, it only survived and thrived because it opened itself to the market system.
You can only measure Chinese success by the metrics of Capitalism, China is great because it has a consumer class now, because it has mega-corporations to provide it with cheap goods and services and mass mindless entertainment, Xi wears a suit and not a chinese traditional anything or Mao's military garb.
There's no effective alternative to the Capitalist mode of production.

Most of Western Europe already has done this in a way, since the welfare state is really strong. But it's not "utopia," people who don't work subsist on the taxes (and/or labor) of those who do. And most people are motivated to work because they don't want the bare minimum, but prosperity for themselves. If everyone has the same living standard, then there's less motivation to work. It's not like more people being unemployed would mean the end of the world, but it's more than likely that any society would have to reward people for their work and/or ostracize those who do not work in order to function properly.

Everyone ignores the fact that to defend against communism taking root in western europe and south america the the west decided to make the worker the centre of society. They created the non ideology "liberal democracy" as a front rigging election to keep up the charade until the fall of the soviet union, then immediately went full mask off and bled the middle class dry to feed the rich.

Food, water, and shelter are freely available in nature.
But when capitalism was invented, those things all became the property of someone and were withheld from any new people who were born.

I'm a moderate libertarian/classic liberal and I unironically think that UBI might be a good idea in some form, from an economic point of view it's most similar to vouchers, it can be seem as a way of the government to return part of the money it has exproppriated through taxes, implement the UBI in place of any social program and you'd have relatively more economic freedom.

the problem that everyone overlooks is the long term effects on culture without something solid grounding people.
I once spoke to a die hard communist raised in commie east germany before the wall fell, and even he had to agree.
Without the right culture any system will fall apart, and things like UBI encourage people to become spoiled brats in a way that threatens said culture.

In nature you can pick food off the trees or hunt animals. In capitalism you'll be arrested for stealing someone's fruit or hunting without a loicense.
In nature you can pick up some sticks and mud and make a home. In capitalism it will be deemed an illegal structure and destroyed.
In nature you can drink water from the river. In capitalism the river is poisoned with industrial chemicals so only the water that goes through the treatment plant is safe.

Probably some fucking MMO that everyone is allowed to be involved in creative and mechanical decisions.

Yeah it would be a total fucking shit show. Some would say that the game should be made in the direction of seperate guilds working mutually as devs and that the concept of a dev team is a bourgeois one and therefore not in the spirit of Marx

Others would say that the dev team should be a dedicated one filled with those who have merit,experience and are experts in Marxists study to ensure the game never strays from the vision and to enforce and prevent any subversive elements and neo bourgeois activity such as meta fags (because saying one class of items is better than the other and one should have it, is advocating for property and property is theft and bourgeois.)

The Spanish Civil War shows that far lefts worse enemy is itself.


Can we just like not cling to the ideals of Adam Smith or Karl Marx and realize the issues of the 21st century needs a 21st century idea/system to solve and that these antiquated beliefs such as capitalism and socialism need to join the retirement home that Mercantalism, Fuedalism, and countless others occupy?

>the USSR collapsed because it was a retarded shitshow that tried to micromanage its economy
USSR collapsed because it's liberal leadership was too fucking rigid at adapting anything about it's economy not wanting to take away any current benefits from the people, even if in the short term this would be better for them

strictly controlled economy is great for a poor, heavily underdeveloped nation, as you can quickly improve the most important factors. USSR skyrocketed life expectancy, literacy rates, home ownership, and general living standards. So did China. Fine consumer goods is another thing tho, it needs a lot of trial and error testing from many competing companies. But USSR kept sticking to overly strict controls regarding consumer good manufacturing even in the 70s, meanwhile China adapted it's economy while still retaining a strict enough socialist control over it that it has to this day

>it was DWARFED in by the space race
lmao what are you talking about here
USSR achieved almost all of the space race's significant achievements, but most importantly they achieved the achievements that actually matter and weren't just dick measuring: they were the ones to gave us satelites and space stations, while the US gave us nothing other than propaganda.

USSR's space program was pioneered by their own talent while US was mainly pioneered by stolen nazis. Also USSR was the first to tap into nuclear energy. These are some amazing achievements for a country that was a semi-medieval shithole with 30y life expectancy just a few decades before.

We're not owed these things unconditionally of course, but the general expectation is that a duly elected government's responsibility is to create the ideal conditions in which these things are relatively easy to acquire. Going full commie isn't particularly required, basic needs can be analysed as market forces and attended to in the same manner and as adeptly as they have with industries like arms. However, all they seem to be doing lately is making it all harder because they're geriatrics off doing their own thing with the nation under utopian notions rather than seeing to the responsibilities they are literally sworn to uphold and paid quite a lot to carry out.

UBI works from every angle. The social theory is solid, the economic theory is solid, and studies have borne that out in practicality. The only reasons to be against UBI are being pro-exploitation or such a consummate misanthropist that you actually believe society can't function if people aren't desperate to survive.

This is sound economic policy for the era Marx lived in. The first three are to prevent the development of an aristocracy. Four and five to prevent capital flight. six and seven to equalize access to the commons. 8 and 9 to prevent famine and provide basic necessities. 10 to replace labor as it ages out. Marx was a brilliant economist for his era, though most of these planks could be reconsidered in the 140 years since he died due to technology changes.

I just think it's weird how people like you mention 'le 50 billion starved by 'gomunism', but never ever acknowledged the mass death in India by the British, or even what we have currently with the middle-east.
I just think it's weird that a major point in history was conveniently exuded, just to make capitalism look good.
That one image of that every libertarian posts, that shows the high score for death tolls always has Mao at 1#, despite Churchill beating that record more than TWICE (165 million).

All those studies concluded that UBI allows the recipients to indulge in more leisure, but doesn't result in a productivity boost that would pay itself off. It very much fails due to its unsustainability.

USSR spent around 1/3 to half of the money the US did on space race with great results, also the space race was seen as exploration/prevention of potential space warfare/bombing/surveillance threats at the time, so it's not like this was just some wasted dick measuring contest money by the USSR, but legitimate risk management investment.

Im not from Russia so idk. But I always felt like Gorbachev got unfair amount of blame and flak for the collapse of the USSR and that the rot was already taking hold during brehznevs time and by the time Gorb took power it was too hollowed out to support anything for much longer.

But I see many people say that Gorb was just stupid in the implementation and it was that right there that caused the collapse. So was it a too little too late or did Gorb just fumble the diffibulator and cause cardiac arrest?

Why were they poor and underdeveloped in the first place? Because while the west liberalized and industrialized normally, they clung to feudalism and privileges for the old nobility. The communists themselves helped encourage this situation as they kept murdering anyone less radical than they were.
Throwing off the old elite did allow them to quickly implement industrialization but they subsequently stagnated by choosing idealism over pragmatism and never recovered until the tyrants died off and their successors allowed market liberalization.

Any of the people that actually made it to the top of commie governments in Soviet Union, Cuba, China or anywhere else were bank robbing, jungle dwelling guerrillas that were summarily executing hedonistic faggots and limpwristed bureaucrats left and right. Guys like Pol Pot were out there executing everyone that looked remotely nerdy or read a book once, smarmy redditors would never have stood a chance in any revolution (but of course, those weren't real communism)

The deaths that happened had numbers at 100m, at the minimum.

Gorbachev is blamed for the collapse, because most people now agree that the USSR needed market reforms and had to hold itself together through authoritarian policies (what Deng Xiaoping did) to not collapse. Instead, Gorb's reforms were ineffective and didn't improve the standards of living while the increased freedom of speech only lead to the rise of nationalist movements.

I agree Yang was a threat to both democrats and republicans in the same way sanders was, and i agree he got a lot of young people on board with free money promises to a generation about to be very poor compared to their parents, but that doesnt make his concept any better. Planned economies with more than like 10 million people in them do worse in all measurable ways. Japan is a hyper industrialized society better educated than america on average, and its very-slightly-beyond-europe economic controls and welfare are major contributing factors to it being a complete economic failure on a national level for 40 consecutive years.

you are a retard anon

the fact that the USSR had to spend proportionally much more on defense (which includes it's space project) IS the fault (and deliberate tactic) of the west who was terrorizing the USSR with a potential war the whole time.
Keep in mind, a couple decades ago a coalition of western countries just genocided 27 million soviets and almost managed to win, colonize the region and kill far more, meanwhile the rest of the west barely did jackshit, their contribution was like 10-20% of the ww2 war efforts, and worse is, now all these fucking countries are allied against the USSR, there is no longer an imperialist tug of war between them like there was in ww1-2, while the USSR only had a bunch of similarly poor as fuck and war wrecked countries that only reluctantly had to ally with it
USSR having to spend more on defense was not some stupid "miscalculation", it was necessary to keep the threat of yet Another catastrophic western invasion away
also there were no famines in ussr after the one caused by ww2

Coward that you are, make a point or stop replying.
You've done nothing but make quite stupid insinuations.
Here you're insinuating reduced productivity in white collar work is going to somehow lead to famine, or that people will somehow refuse to farm if they are at basic level of survival.
In reality the pay and conditions for farm work would improve to attract workers.

Society can function without exploiting the most desperate among us to do the most essential work for the least pay.

It has nigh infinite energy resources and fertile lands and everything you could ever wanted to build an utopia (that's how they managed to build the astronomically huge armed forces they have been burning for 3 decades straight in random conflicts with no end in sight) and your system created the worst example of class disparity ever seen, each well connected soviet burecraut became an oligarch wealthier than any capitalist, Putin personally controls more wealth than any Rockfeller.

Karl Marx is redundant

Like his whole spiel is this:

>"In communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, shepherd or critic." -Karl Marx

you can already do this. apply to welfare and keep doing the shit that you want.

>Hmm... I wonder why the West (the US) could spend all these money and the USSR couldn't? Could it be that the west had a system that was much better at producing wealth?

US was far wealthier and more developed than the regions of USSR even before the commies took over. If anything the commies did a better than average job at trying to close the gap with rapid industrialization
USSR was also by far the most war wrecked country of WW2, suffering extreme devastation
meanwhile the US straight up got richer from WW2
Also US had shitloads of banana republics from where they were extracting wealth, and were generally part of the western world order, meaning they also benefitted from countries like UK or France importing cheap resources from their colonies. Meanwhile the USSR was in no such relationship with the countries under it's influence. In fact, USSR also felt inclined in trying to support the anti-colonialist movements all around the world, spending billions on it while getting nothing in return.

if the real reason for the west's lead in wealth was simply that it has a better economic model then most of the global south, who are similarly following this model, would be also rich by now, but they aren't, in fact proportionally there are more people in communists/ex-communist countries who are living under good living standards than people who living in capitalist countries. That's because capitalism is systematically about exploitation of people, the west just "cracked the code" by moving the exploitation to far abroad to the global south, and letting just enough wealth trickle to their own population to keep them content and stop them from rebelling for a better system

>why do retards simp so much for the rich who hate them?
Because commies use a vague nebulous concept of "the rich" to refer to anyone they are jealous of or feel is "too privileged".
They get angry their neighbor has a lambo and they don't then screech about privilege but will conveniently ignore the fact that the neighbor had to work a grueling 70 hour a week job for years to buy that lambo, while they choose to work part time as a dog walker and spend their pay on pot rather than saving it.

Alternatively you have the worst-of-the-worst upper-class California commies who make 300k at do-nothing techie jobs, "Schrodinger's elites". Who simultaneously larp as poor oppressed workers one second, then as rich, arrogant assholes looking down on the filthy peasantry the next.
This leads to the completely absurd situation where they talk about "eating the rich" and murdering "bourgeois" managers at Mcdonalds who make 1/3rd as much as them.
None of it makes logical sense and people who work real jobs see through it but communists never care about logic because they are inherently hypocrites who deep-down are greedy lazy people that just want to take from everyone else while giving nothing. They always have the assumption that it is someone else who is going to be the loser having their shit stolen or slaving away for no pay.

They'd probably end up being smaller passion projects. People would in general be working a lot less, and so would have time to contribute to them. Larger games would likely emerge from this sort of mentality, and could emerge since there'd be no reason to close source things. They'd shift closer to an art form; for passion instead of for profit.
We'd probably see a shift away from games that require a large amount of compute resources towards more of a distributed server model. Things that require centralized servers would require some sort of interaction with economic planning.

Communist countries usually celebrate labour. The point of communism is to make labour worthwhile because the capitalists stop stealing from you. With that out of the way, you can labour and grow as a person, with actual useful skills and a community of peers who value you.

The aesthetic of communism that the liberals adopt is of course informed by their own preferences - a shitty isekai utopia where their worthless skills are actually useful. That is to say, the world they currently live in (where the labour of those in the third world effectively bankrolls the liberal's dream of playing the pan flute at a vegan coffee shop). It has been obvious to everyone forever that those liberals are the exact bourgeoisie that that same third world will eventually inevitably revolt against, but the capitalists have spent the last hundred years coping that there is some magical solution that will save capitalism, and a small part of that involves pretending that communism will turn everywhere into San Fransisco.

Utilizing capitalist technology they'd make Tetris as they still have a market to sell to, especially capitalist markets which brings them more ability to negotiate and buy goods and services from market economies.
>"True post capitalist utopia that karl marx envisioned"
All the games that'd be made under it are already made.
All 0 of them.

You'd have to have a society that doesn't get pissed at someone "Chasing their dream game and making art" instead of working, as no one would accept that as them "Contributing according to their ability" and wouldn't afford them the luxuries to design a game, people aren't going to toil with cobalt and microchip manufacturing just for a group of jackoffs who are "Idea guys" to fuck around for 17 years making their "Dream game" to make something. You'd have to redevelop capitalism and explicitly abandon "Communism" by reintroducing commodities in order to actually have people with the luxury goods that allows one to develop games, and be able to fund it (Because "The public" aren't going to approve of "Video game collective #53253 that is "Totally making a dream game for real this time" not participating in the greater society for a year to multiple years and you'll be branded as leeches)

If we're talking post scarcity, IE, literal magic with replicators, it'd just be AI level slop every year at AI rates because everyone has "an idea" and thinks what they make is hot and deserves attention, and people would automate the process as much as they could and extremely few would feel a need to actually work together if everyone has unlimited resources and the tools to automate so much of the process. People would probably become obsessed with "Making something for themselves" to a point that it'd be much like the current AI problems. The few people who actually do work together would probably make indie games like they already do

Consumerism would still exist there just wouldn't be a money exchange of value as technological advancements and abandonment of the profit motive and a unified post-nation state world would ensure post-scarcity. It sounds insane but you need to consider the time Marx & Engels lived in, Europe and America were basically unrecognizable compared to how they were even a generation ago.

Because fundamentally all western countries are bourgeois. Even if you're in the lower middle class, you benefit from the current system. It's only the poor who really don't benefit.

The revolution isn't going to start in a white suburb, it starts in some exploited third world nation. Even movements like BLM ultimately can't change much because the exploited population of America exists for a different reason to the exploited population of other countries. A mass prison riot could probably accomplish it, though.

Communism doesn't exist on the internet or really in the west, so of course we won't have real discussions about it. It exists in a place where the locals have never even heard of electricity, but have to work themselves to death at the age of 20 so that the westerners can buy cheap coffee.

I think most people still don't realize that there are entire towns in the Philippenes which exist - that is to say, the people in these towns, who have never left, were only born - because a fat retired white guy might want to buy a human being. Your dad goes on a vacation to the Philippenes to "go to the beach" and entire fucking societies spring into existence to provide him with 10 year old girls to have sex with. The force of western money is so heavy it can create civilizations whose entire economic basis for existing is "pedophilia and slavery are illegal where this guy lives".

Communist Parties were full of academics & nerds, Mao was a librarian/scholar and Stalin was initially studying to be a priest in the Orthodox Church.

The DPRK like any state wants to maximize its chances of survival. They've done the best thing they could with their limited resources and got nukes, but if they were able to control all of Asia they would've. Same goes for China, South Korea, Japan and so on. Every counry wants to enforce its will on the rest of the world for its benefit, but most are simply not capable to do so.

Modern Europe is a confederation of various capitalistic nation-states whose economies are so intertwined by a handful of private banks that theyre're unable to go to war against each other or break apart without serious consequences. It is one of the greatest triumphs of liberalism in history

Commies are not socially conservative by mater of ideology, they want to overthrow the existing social order and create new soviet man or cultural revolution and communist intellectuals were always degenerates who wanted to destroy concepts like sex, family and age of consent.
It's that successful revolutionaries weren't that retarded and commie states were fairly isolationist defending against "foreign imperialist influences" so their social mores got frozen in time.

Yeah, and the US was founded on principles of liberty and freedom. They were so commited to it that they established the Monroe Doctrine, so every country in North and South America would be free from the European empires. Yup.
And as they were commited to these principles then, they still are. Keeping the nations of the world free from such evil imperialist states as the USSR and Iraq

Poland literally forced its way into NATO with lobbying and politicking lmao, NATO has never expanded through violence or the threat of it.
Meanwhile Russia is an empire ruled from Moscow that ferries mongoloid poorfucks from the other side of the planet to fight for it on a war of conquest that isn't really needed in any practical sense.
You have zero moral fiber or character to make a claim like that just because you think it's convenient.

those countries are the ones immigrating to first world, functional countries. except the DPRK but you only mentioned that country as a shitpost so I'm not going to dignify it with a response.
Neoliberals want the same thing that vietnamese communists want: viet scabs to move to western countries, replace local workers and make money for the capital owners while extracting as much wealth as possible and sending it back to NAM.
this is the case with ALL third world immigration.
it's also what's making the far right so active

Russia saved Syria from imperalism for several years, Russia saved Venezulea, Russia helped the DPRK against western sanctions and Russia helped Iran.
NATO helped destroy Lybia and murder Gaddafi, NATO backs a Nazi regime in Kiev that is murdering the Russian speaking population and NATO helped fund ISIS in Syria.
Those countries only pentitioned to joined because they have NATO and Globohomo puppet govermeants installed already thanks to the imperialist colour 'revoultions'

Plus emigration doesn't come from any of those nations it comes from the ones the west destroyed like Iraq, Lybia, Syria and so on your warmongering created the migrant crisis and your elites import the population of the nations they destroyed to create a slave labour underclass to replace the unioinised working class
