And to me that’s dishonest, because you have to add the “attacks from capitalists” clause or else you would also have to laud mercantilism/capitalism as well for lifting the standard of living from straw huts under kings and feudalism.
What’s the laudable part, lifting standards of living or doing it while under attack. Because as far as I see it, the concern should be with the material conditions not the degree of difficulty.
What’s even more laudable to me, is doing so without an overbearing brutal state oppressing the people on top of that. We know it can work as we have seen how people flourish both materially and socially under direct community rule whenever it has been tried.
