People on chapo.chat: ACAB, let’s abolish the police :pig:
Also people on chapo.chat: Ummm actually sweaty the NKVD were extremely good and based, every nation needs a strong way to protect itself from ideological undesirables, can’t wait to purge some reactionaries :lenin-shining:
The Soviet Union traded (out of necessity) commodities in the global market. This means their workers were involved in commodity production and so (as per Marx) were exploited. Probably less than workers in liberal democracies, but still in Marxist terms, exploited.
This means the role of police in the soviet union was to protect property and manage labor. You can argue that was an uncomfortable necessity, but that’s a different conversation.
Lmao that’s right, when you’re getting the shit kicked out of you on the ground I’m sure what’s going through your head is “well at least the cops aren’t beating me over property”
When the people are being beaten with a stick, they are not much happier if it is called “the People’s Stick.”
