“Socialism Was Good in Theory” That assumes socialism’s theory was never seriously challenged. It was—long before the Soviet Union, Lenin, or any national-scale experiment. Five thinkers attacked its foundations from different directions. Tocqueville: Equality Can Become Servitude In 1848, Alexis de Tocqueville distinguished democracy from socialism. Both pursued equality, but democracy sought it while preserving individual freedom. Socialism risked achieving equality by expanding state power. Equality, he warned, is not automatically liberty. Bastiat: Redistribution Can Become Plunder In 1850, Frédéric Bastiat examined what happens when the state takes from some to give to others in the name of justice. He called this “legal plunder.” His concern was that politics could become a permanent struggle to control redistribution. Nietzsche: Equality Can Become Resentment Nietzsche attacked socialism psychologically. He saw egalitarianism as potentially rooted in resentment toward exceptional individuals, ambition, strength, and hierarchy. The danger was a culture that treated excellence as morally suspect—not lifting people upward, but bringing the exceptional downward. Böhm-Bawerk: Challenge the Economics In 1896, Eugen von Böhm-Bawerk attacked Marx’s economic theory, arguing that Marx’s labor theory of value could not adequately explain the relationship between labor values and actual prices. He challenged socialism’s claim to a scientific economic foundation. Mises: The Calculation Problem In 1920, Ludwig von Mises asked a devastating question: even if socialism is morally desirable, how would planners know what to produce? The sequence is clear: Tocqueville challenged the political premise. Bastiat challenged redistribution. Nietzsche challenged egalitarian psychology. Böhm-Bawerk challenged Marxian economics. Mises challenged central planning. All of them preceded the Soviet experiment. So “socialism was good in theory, but bad in practice” is not an argument. It is a historical claim that requires explaining why these objections were wrong.

LETTERA AL MIO PEGGIOR ALLIEVO Stamattina ho letto uno dei tanti straordinari post del mio amico Mattia Madonia, che si chiedeva cosa direbbe Indro Montanelli del suo allievo @marcotravaglio, e così, davanti alla mia vecchia Olivetti Lettera 22, ho pensato di somministrare il post all’AI come elemento di contesto e le ho chiesto di commentare il “lavoro” di Travaglio come se a scrivere fosse Montanelli. L’AI ha scelto autonomamente una lettera aperta, che riporto di seguito senza correzioni. —- Caro Marco, la chiamo per nome, come si fa con i figliocci e con i traditori: due categorie che, in una vita lunga e litigiosa, ho imparato a non tenere troppo distanti. Le batto queste righe sulla Lettera 22 - la verde - che qualcuno ha avuto la bontà di recapitarmi quassù, o quaggiù, non ho ancora capito in quale reparto mi abbiano sistemato. La macchina per scrivere ha un difetto che è la sua unica virtù: batte una lettera per volta, e ogni tasto è un fatto. Con una Lettera 22 non si bara. Con una linea editoriale, a quanto vedo, sì. Le devo un ringraziamento e una frustata, nell’ordine. Il ringraziamento è per avermi copiato la posa: il bastian contrario, l’uomo solo controvento, quello che dà del somaro a tutti. Bravo. Ha imparato la mia faccia. Peccato che della mia faccia lei abbia preso la smorfia e buttato via l’osso: perché controcorrente ci si va per amore dei fatti, non per amore della corrente contraria. Il contrarianismo senza i fatti non è coraggio, ma vanità con l’elmetto. Veniamo alla frustata, che è più istruttiva. Io, la guerra di un piccolo popolo aggredito da un colosso, l’ho vista con questi occhi, nel Quaranta, sugli sci, al gelo, tra i finlandesi. Non commentai una riga: raccontai. Raccontai la neve, i cecchini bianchi, i carri sovietici che si impantanavano nella loro stessa arroganza. E il lettore, senza che io glielo dicessi, diventava profinlandese. Perché la verità, quando la lasci in pace, cammina da sola. È il mestiere, caro Marco. Quello che lei ha smesso di fare. Perché quando un altro piccolo popolo - lo scriva pure, il nome, Ucraina, non morde - si è trovato sotto lo stesso colosso, con lo stesso pretesto delle minoranze da proteggere e delle zone cuscinetto da inventare, lei che ha fatto? Ha lasciato parlare i fatti? No. Ha lasciato parlare le veline. Ha preso il comunicato dell’aggressore e gli ha messo addosso la cravatta buona del dubbio: l’«eh, ma la NATO», l’«eh, ma non è tutto bianco e nero». Certo che non è tutto bianco e nero. Ma quando un carro armato entra in casa d’altri, il colore glielo do io: è del colore del torto. Lei mi dirà che pone domande, che dubita, che non si fa arruolare. Il dubbio, caro figliolo, è un arnese sacro, a patto di usarlo su tutti. Il suo lo tira fuori sempre e soltanto contro gli aggrediti. Un dubbio a senso unico non è giornalismo: è ufficio stampa con la puzza sotto il naso. Le confesso una cosa, ché quassù (o quaggiù) si diventa sinceri per noia. Di errori ne ho collezionati a bizzeffe, alcuni imperdonabili, e ho pagato anche con del piombo nelle gambe, regalatomi da gente che il dubbio non lo tollerava affatto. Non le do lezioni di virtù: sarei ridicolo. Le do una lezione di mestiere, l’unica cosa su cui posso ancora permettermi la superbia. Ed è vecchia come il piombo dei tipografi: i fatti prima, l’opinione dopo, e mai - mai - l’opinione travestita da fatto. Lei ha fatto l’esatto contrario. Ha preso il mio metodo, l’ha capovolto, e ci ha appiccicato sopra la mia foto come un santino. È l’unico plagio che non le perdono: non quello dei fatti, ma quello della faccia. La saluto. E le lascio, come si usa tra maestri e cattivi allievi, un compito per casa: un giorno solo, uno, provi a far parlare i fatti dell’aggredito con la stessa generosità con cui fa parlare i dubbi dell’aggressore. Vedrà che fatica. Il mestiere è tutto lì. Suo, con l’affetto ruvido che si deve ai figli sbagliati, I. M. #giornalismo #opinione #scrittura

“Socialism Was Good in Theory” That sentence assumes the theory was never seriously challenged. It was. Long before the Soviet Union existed, before Lenin seized power, and before socialism had been tested on a national scale, major thinkers were already attacking its foundations—from very different directions. Five of them stand out. Tocqueville: Equality Can Become Servitude In 1848, Alexis de Tocqueville drew a sharp distinction between democracy and socialism. Both spoke about equality. But Tocqueville believed they pursued it in fundamentally different ways. Democracy, in his view, sought equality while preserving individual freedom. Socialism risked achieving equality by expanding the power of the state over the individual. His warning was essentially this: equality is not automatically liberty. A society can pursue equality so aggressively that it begins sacrificing the independence that makes political freedom meaningful. Bastiat: Follow Where Redistribution Leads Two years later, Frédéric Bastiat attacked socialism from a different direction. His question was deceptively simple: What happens when the state acquires the authority to take from some people and give to others in the name of justice? Bastiat called this “legal plunder.” His concern was not merely that redistribution might be expensive. It was that once government becomes the instrument through which competing groups obtain benefits from one another, politics can turn into a permanent struggle over who controls the machinery of redistribution. The problem, therefore, wasn’t simply how much the state redistributed. It was the principle that made redistribution legitimate in the first place. (bastiat.org⁠) Nietzsche: Equality Can Become Resentment Nietzsche approached socialism neither as an economist nor as a constitutional theorist. He attacked its psychology. He saw modern egalitarian movements as part of a much older moral impulse: resentment toward exceptional individuals and suspicion of strength, ambition and hierarchy. For Nietzsche, the danger was not simply that everyone might become economically equal. It was that a culture could begin treating excellence itself as something morally suspect. The goal would cease to be lifting people upward. It would become bringing the exceptional downward. Böhm-Bawerk: Challenge the Economics Then came Eugen von Böhm-Bawerk. In 1896, he turned his attention specifically toward Marx’s economic system. His criticism was not primarily moral or political. It was technical. Böhm-Bawerk argued that Marx’s theory of value did not adequately explain how the labor values developed in Capital could be reconciled with the actual prices Marx subsequently needed to explain. In other words, he attacked socialism where it claimed to possess a scientific economic foundation. The argument became one of the central criticisms of Marxian economics and helped launch a debate that would continue for generations. Mises: The Calculation Problem Then, in 1920, Ludwig von Mises attacked an even more fundamental question: Even if socialism is morally desirable, how would a socialist economy actually know what to produce? A functioning economy has millions of competing uses for scarce resources. Build a bridge or a hospital? Use steel here or there? Produce more machinery or more consumer goods? Under private ownership and markets, prices for capital goods provide information about relative scarcity and opportunity costs. Mises argued that abolishing private ownership of the means of production also removes the genuine market prices necessary for rational economic calculation. The problem wasn’t simply that socialist planners might make bad decisions. It was that the system deprived them of the very economic signals required to systematically compare those decisions. (Mises Institute⁠) And that was the sequence. Tocqueville challenged the political premise. Bastiat challenged the moral and legal mechanism of redistribution. Nietzsche challenged the psychology behind egalitarianism. Böhm-Bawerk challenged Marx’s economic theory. Mises challenged the possibility of rational central economic calculation. Five different thinkers. Five different objections. And all of them came before the Soviet Union had demonstrated what large-scale socialist government would actually look like. So “socialism was good in theory, but bad in practice” is not an argument. It is a historical claim that requires you to explain why these theoretical objections were wrong. The interesting question isn’t whether socialism had critics. It did. The interesting question is whether socialism ever adequately answered them” - ChatGPT

The head of the German arms company Donaustahl, Stefan Tumann, which supplies drones to Ukraine, was reportedly targeted by the Russian GRU for assassination with the poison "Novichok." This was stated by Bastian Ernst, a member of the Bundestag from the CDU, in a RTL program. Tumann is under protection and sees his life as a personal war against the Russian regime. A hero.
