    Capitalism worked under Eastern aggression, Communist economic sanctions, Communist covert actions, and a propaganda apparatus far more widespread than anything from the West.

    It worked better than Communism because it works better than Communism. LMFAO

      Right, the countries that invaded the USSR in its nascent years, constantly tried to assassinate leaders of progressive movements, couped most countries on Earth.

      Communist economic sanctions, Communist covert actions

      The projection lol

      and a propaganda apparatus far more widespread than anything from the West.

      As that joke goes, a CIA and KGB officer meet at a bar. The CIA officer says to the KGB officer “You’ve got a good propaganda machine!”, the KGB officer replies “Well, yours is unbeatable.”

      The CIA agent responds with “What propaganda? In the West we don’t have propaganda.”
