Yeah like, if communism is so shit why didn't the big capitalist countries leave them alone and just let them be friends?
Friendly reminder that the USSR was invaded by no fewer than 14 Capitalist countries right after the October Revolution, the CIA admitted to trying and failing 634 times to assassinate Fidel Castro, and a total of 635,000 tons of bombs, including 32,557 tons of napalm, were dropped on the DPRK, destroying 85% of all North Korean buildings. By comparison, the U.S. dropped 500,000 tons in the Pacific theater during all of World War II (including 160,000 on Japan).
Why has socialism never worked? Sorry, I meant to ask, Why has it never been allowed to continue working?
