    You didn’t list any socialist societies. The first is a group of people who go camping annually together then go back to their real lives(in a capitalist society). Second is an authoritarian society which bans independent media and the third is another group where you vacation in this society until you get tired of it and just leave to your real life so that another can join(they also ban media).

    Unless banning types of media is ok now for socialist societies?

    None of them are an actual socialist nation. I wouldn’t be thinking of the Soviets, no. There was nothing socialist about them other than an initial. I wasn’t hinking of any in particular because there are not any. I wish there were and I hope for one but there isn’t one yet.

    I could very well be. If only there was a way for you to do your own research on attempts at creating a true socialist society at the national level. Seems pretty important to the point of this thread and something you would not want to leave to a stranger who might talk out of his ass.

    The truth is the opposite. A concentration of small government power is an incentive for those who seek power(as these types of humans will always exist). Processes are inefficient and slow incentivizing bribes(greed will always exist). A lack of incentive to innovate promotes stagnation and complacency(lazy acceptance of an internal takover).

    As a kid I once flew a kite with almost 1,500 feet of kite string. A quarter mile or so. It sagged quite a lot but we estimated it was about 350-400ft up or so in a field. Then a crop duster showed up.

    I put the string between my legs while a fiend held the spool and ran as fast as I could to bring down the kite.

    We were also about 1 mile past the end of a air force runway.
