    Bob: “Guys… if we could get everyone in the whole world working together to efficiently organize labor and the allocation of resources, there would be no more poverty”

    Alice: “Wow Bob, that sounds amazing! How do we make that happen?”

    Bob: “Uhh… how many bullets do we have?”

    Rapid industrialization at the cost of millions of lives was only a necessity because Stalin insisted on Socialism in One Country.

    Had proletariat revolutions not failed elsewhere, especially Western Europe, there would be no need for such a haphazard and reckless transition.

    People should steal food from hoarders to redistribute it to starving peasants actually.

    I agree, but the quota on kulak liquidation led to starving peasants being targeted.

    If youre talking about grain quotas they stopped taking grain out of the region and started importing food when they realized there was a famine.

    After millions of people had already starved to death. A minor but necessary bump in the road toward industrialization, I’m sure.
