Australian lawmakers have banned the performance of the Nazi salute in public and outlawed the display or sale of Nazi hate symbols such as the swastika in landmark legislation that went into effect in the country Monday. The new laws also make the act of glorifying OR praising acts of terrorism a criminal offense.
The crime of publicly performing the Nazi salute or displaying the Nazi swastika is punishable by up to 12 months in prison, according to the Reuters news agency.
Mark Dreyfus, Australia’s Attorney-General, said in a press release Monday that the laws — the first of their kind in the country — sent “a clear message: there is no place in Australia for acts and symbols that glorify the horrors of the Holocaust and terrorist acts.”
Tell me you think real socialism has never been tried without telling me real socialism has never been tried.
It hasn’t, and even the Soviets would have agreed.
But real (anarcho)capitalism hasn’t either.
Oh wait, no, it has, and it became a dictatorial shithole every time lol

Tell me you think capitalism is working just fine without telling me you think capitalism is working just fine.

Of course it has been tried, it even has been successful! See e.g. Chiapas and Rojava.
What’s true is that Marxist-Leninist-Maoists have never tried socialism, which shouldn’t be too surprising given that they’re authoritarian which inevitably leads to state capitalism. Heck Socdems are more socialist than MLMs.
I like that acronym you made of authlefts.
Has it?
The USSR was definitionally about as socialist as the DPRK is democratic. I don’t know why you’d believe either of them - particularly when you seem so pessimistic about such “socialist” regimes.
Real modern capitalism hadn’t been tried until it had… nor had mercantile capitalism before that… or feudalism before that… Doing things that haven’t been done is a necessary part of progress - you do understand that, don’t you?
