Well now we can say running a gitmo in the back of the train.
AES?
Actually Existing Socialism
Where does gulag socialism exists?
The GULAG system is a reference to the Soviet Union’s prison system during the first half of its existence. The former USSR is a common example of AES.
So its not existing?
AES is just a shorthand for real examples of countries following Marxist analysis and establishing Socialism, the fact that the USSR dissolved doesn’t mean it wasn’t Socialist. The purpose of categorization of AES is to study any common problems or benefits so that they can be learned from and universalized for future revolutions and societies.
I guess I’ll point out then that I was there and the jab in the frame above feels deserved.
You’d have to have been alive and capable of being arrested before 1960, when the GULAG Directotate was abolished, so color me skeptical for not believing you to be over 74 years old.
