In France, none of my friends, coworkers, or family members are religious, and they’re not on Lemmy either a.f.a.i.k. I’d say that on the Internet there’s the same proportion of ‘anti-communists’//communists among christians and atheists, but once again it’s hard for me to identify an internet user as christian so it’d be hard to compare, i liked DebateReligion and CapitalismVsSocialism on reddit, do you know per chance if there’re similar communities somewhere on Lemmy ?
(/c/[email protected] probably has the answer, but i don’t think i have much time to dedicate to it anyway)
B.t.w., another lie told is that religion was only allowed after 1991 in the u.s.s.r., while the article 52 of the 1977 constitution(, and probably before,) already granted it, it’s just sometimes a lie that we can happen to read, among others(, and ignoring the reasons behind the initial conflict).
And yeah, all the economic arguments don’t stand against the economic success of the u.s.s.r., despite the sanctions and the military burden(, and failure of capitalist countries from South America and Africa, pointing out that choosing to reduce or not inegalities/hierarchy isn’t the most important factor).
And even if progress was indeed slower under all forms of socialism, which i don’t believe, then perhaps that still, despite that, speed&power isn’t the most important factor, and also that competition between humans and countries should be replaced by cooperation. Well, you already know that, it’s just that we(sterners) refuse to live with communists under pretenses that don’t make sense, we should at least allow them to be different, even if our capitalists-owned countries will have to protect themselves from communist propaganda, a serious case could be made that a united&peaceful world with countries from all kind of ideologies would be greater/‘more instructive’ than an hegemonic communist world, theses benefit from the existence of antitheses for its progress, the alternative to coexistence is something i’d rather not think about, and unecessary/undesirable.

No idea how in France, but in Poland i never met nor heard about religious people who wouldn’t be hostile to communism.

No, i do not know. “CapitalismVsSocialism” or something like that on lemmy would be swarmed by the vilest redditors from multiple anticommunist instances and unusable anyway.

It was much faster. Still is when you compare socialist and capitalist countries on similar level of development.

Absolutely not. Capitalism needs to grow to function. Eventually it crashes because infinite growth is not possible on finite planet, but in the meantime capitalist states would necessarily tried to expand on the socialist ones. It makes communism impossible when capitalism still exist because you cannot make stateless, classless, moneyless society when some warlords want to colonize you. Capitalism must be completely eradicated as a system in order to achieve communism.
the alternative to coexistence is something i’d rather not think about, and unecessary/undesirable.
Coexistence with capitalism? That’s paradox of tolerance, capitalism cannot tolerate noncapitalist countries, you can notice this everywhere in its history, both feudal and socialist states (not to mention weaker capitalist states) always came under the attack of stronger ones. Read Lenin’s “Imperialism: the highest state of capitalism”
If? I have to ask that, but do you live on the Moon? Because on Earth overwhelming most christians are exactly those type.
