Marxist dialectics doesn't lead to communism if you take correction on Pareto rule and the fact that the living standards of the working class are and were improving rather than getting worse. Haven't seen a single communist contest that fact in a serious way.

Post scarcity of our current needs, humans are greedy creatures you really think that most people dont all want to have a 100 meter yacht, or their own space habitat? Also if there is no scarcity people will reproduce untill there is a new scarcity.

pretty much the only way communism could work is post-scarcity and a benevolent AI with supreme power and 100% efficiency at resource allocation
if humans are in charge politically - tyranny and cancer inevitable if humans are in charge economically - tyranny and cancer inevitable
technosocialism could theoretically be feasible with future tech, but the adverse consequence to human development would be huge
I imagine such a regime would steadily devolve into the "rogue servitors" thing from Stellaris where humans are just useless biotrophies of the robots who just sort of lie around and do nothing but stuff their faces and indulge in hedonism while the bots do the actual work of civilization building

People were smiling etc. There was even the Marx part.

ah luckier then a beaver. It is Mircea Malita Chronicals of year 2000,
and the motherfucking thing looks like this. had to dig through my old stuff from school times
topjej, that motherfucker was a hardcore Romanian communist sympathizer, he worked for the Ministry of Foreign Office in the early years of Ceausescu, then became a "respectable" academic professor in various commie universities over here. He is still regarded in some Political faculties over here as one of the most prominent diplomats that our country had under the communist times. May we piss on his grave eternally, and may his soul rot in hell in perpetuity.
Michael Morgan
>suddenly a man with a giant white beard puts his hands in your pocket "Italians aren't white"
I know I had to pass exames from his "Romanian Diplomacy" and "grey gold". they and one extra book were obligatory read for everyone who wanted to be allowed to take and exame in highschool in 1867. Back then we were hardcore in to Romanian and Bulgarian stuff. Litteraly worshiped here back then.
Alexander Ross
just to add - that book that he wrote was heavily inspired from Ceausescu's vision regarding the implementation of Marxism socialism in Romania, which would have had its peak in the year 2000 (>heavy industrialization until the 80s; >pay off all the foreign debt until the 90s; >last steps towards a communist utopia until the 2000s).
Thomas Jones
Ceausescu is the hero Romania needs but doesn't deserve
explains while when we learned about him we always had to say that he was the golden one, or the golden sun of karpaty. Never liked his wife though.
I remember when Romania forced all russia countries to lobby for elena to get a noble prize in chemistry, and Soviets finaly told us all to chill.
Jack Brown
>Literally worshiped here back then.
I could understand why, Romanian communism after the late 60s was quite unique and very anti-Soviet in nature, we had our own brand of realpolitik and some capitalistic measures were undertaken by our political class after the USSR tried to forcefully impose their economic doctrine upon us. Our peak levels were reached when the Warsaw pact invaded Czechoslovakia and we refused, our country literally prepared itself for a Soviet invasion for quite some time afterwards.
Ceausescu was actually quite alright up until the late 70s, the population liked him for standing up to the Soviets and for opening up to the Western nations, which brought numerous economical advantages to our nation. It all changed in the early 80s, when he started to implement his second plan (>pay off all the foreign debt contracted over the past decade), which eventually brought large scale famine and social discomfort to the general population, while the commie intelligentsia was indulging in all of their pleasures. It took him less than 5 years to be completely hated by the population, despite the good things that he did in his early reign. As for your picture, most people feel nostalgic for the stability of that period, not necessarily for him personally. They had a stable job, a purpose, friends and family were tight together, social life was good as long as you didn't criticize the regime and so forth. Nowadays, their friends and family are dead or have emigrated abroad, there is no greater purpose anymore, our economical perspectives are all but gone and the job stability has all but disappeared, and our political class is even more incompetent than the communist one, if that's even possible.
>I remember when Romania forced all russia countries to lobby for elena to get a noble prize in chemistry
Ah, Elena ... the most hated woman in communist Romania. One of the main reasons why Ceausescu got killed in the end.
Jose Flores

Parker Carter
I never knew Romania did shit in Warsaw pact, I thought it was mostly isolated, while Germany did stuff, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia fucked around with each other to create South Slavic socialist influence, and Hungary and Czechoslovakia pushed for reforms.
Poland wasted everyone's money and opposed reforms until Andropov didn't give the monies

Well, the whole collapse of the Soviet Union was an elaborate debt trap: cheap western credits to European states, for which they dramatically raised the interest rates later, combined with Oil crash. The USSR's economy wasn't bruised too bad, but we could not subsidize or repay the debts of European nations. This allowed the IMF to basically dictate to Warsaw pact states - and Ceausescu decided to reject it.
Thomas Gray
after the 60s we approached China as to counter the increasing Soviet influence in our country, and soon enough we became the "black horse" in the Warsaw pact after we refused to participate in the invasion of Czechoslovakia (which ultimately brought us numerous economical advantages because Western nations started investing heavily in us as a way to divide and conquer the Warsaw pact from within). We were actually quite independent from soviet influence between the 60s and the 70s, after which we were yet again infiltrated by the KGB in most of our national security sectors. Ceausescu tried to implement his own style of realpolitik which was heavily revolved around the use of spies that were sent to Western nations to infiltrate economic and military industrial sectors. At one point, we had a mole that had top access to everything top secret related in the NATO headquarters, which was feeding information back to Romania and the KGB respectively. Hell, our nuclear reactors at Cernavoda were built with stolen Canadian blueprints that were US in origin - when we completed our reactors, our scientists couldn't figure it out how to operate them, so we hired a team of Canadian specialists to train our workers over here accordingly. Many such cases.
Cameron Kelly
>This allowed the IMF to basically dictate to Warsaw pact states - and Ceausescu decided to reject it.
hate him or not, but in 89' after he was shot, Romania literally had 0 foreign debt and was projected to have an economic surplus in the following year. Look at our foreign debt now and weep ...
Ryan Cook
??? what money. We not only weren't given any money, but you paid for our food and products with old military stuff, And each year there was a deficit in foregin trade in favour of us, so around 15-20 december, we had two trains of tanks or artilery send to us, with the info that now we own you money. Better yet when we were buying stuff from you, we had to use dollars or french franks, and you paid us in transfer rubels at your own exchange rate(aka 1 rubel=1dollar, which was insane), and you couldn't buy anything with transfer rubels, it wasn't even a physical currancy, just a tab you held for stuff we send in. And Andropov didn't give poles anything. He transfered money to some members of the old Communist Party, and to be more exact the SD and military faction, which were all what we called "russian people". With that money they bought out polish state companies that made money. All the wealthiest Poles right now are people who started by getting money from the KC PZPR shut down Bank money, which they never gave back. The dudes that tried to check how much money was lost stoped at 300 milion dollars. And not because they couldn't find more stuff. No the prosecutors and then the general of polish police were just shot by "unknown assiliants". And out of 17 people who had anything to do with it. 16 commited suicide in prison, mostly by hanging themselfs in 24h watch single cells, and one dude died from food poisoning with poison mashrooms that look just like regular shrooms, but are super toxic and destroy your liver under 24 hours.
Wyatt Brooks
You guys got a lot of french investors after the 1968 thing right? I remember it, because you had very good chocolate(as in real thing made out of real cacao, and not chocolate-like products russians made us buy from them).
Aaron Powell
Well, I don't disagree about Andropov, he stopped most foreign subsidies and assistance and switched to profiteering in some cases.
Chase Martin
yep, after Charles de Gaulle visited Ceausescu in the 60s, a lot of french investors started appearing in Romania. By the early 70s we had American, British, French, Israeli and Arabs heavily investing over here. At one point, we acted as the de facto mediator between Israel and all the other Arab nations, mainly because we had very good relationships with all of the nations over there.
Liam Russell
>chocolate-like products It's called "the milky bar". It's was a chocolate by ingridients, except there was a very small percentage of cacao beans.

Again, the Soviet economy was steady, but heavily strained in Andropov times because of that whole Oil crash.
