Capitalist Communism
Capitalist Communism (CapCom), also called Communo-Capitalism (ComCap) and (Mut-Com) is an ideology representing the unity between the far sides of economic left and far sides of the economic right. It wants the state to use the capitalist zones to the communist states advantage. The state is more powerful than the capitalist corporations and is seen to control them. This usually manifests in CapCom representing Dengism (Socialism with Chinese Characteristics), which is basically a communist state that allows capitalism and free-market and free-enterprise in certain zones of its territory.
It can also manifest into being a vague system in which ownership of Communes is sold on the free market. Capcom can also represent some form of syncretism between Communist and Capitalist systems like Distributism or Left-Rothbardianism, however unlike these ideologies, it does not combine the more, centrist 'sensible', parts of captalism and communism, rather combining the most extreme parts of it.
Variants
Market Communism
Several communist countries, for the economy not to crash, ended up adopting some small economic reforms that allowed a little market with strong government participation and some cases (China, Vietnam and the NEP) allowed foreign investment, but still without private property, many times using State Capitalism. Some examples could be Tito's Yugoslavia with its market socialism and a certain cooperation with private enterprise, the NEP in Lenin's Soviet Union, the black indigenous entrepreneurship program of the current government in Zimbabwe, China, Vietnam, especially on Võ Văn Kiệt, current Cuba after some reforms by Raul Castro after the protests, Libya by Muammar Gaddafi among many others.
Personality
CapCom is usually presented as rather eccentric, with them being CCP's (lol no) number one apologist and really loving Pepsi as his drink of choice.
How to Draw
CapCom's flag is a diagonal bi-colour of OrangeGold (representing Highly regulated Capitalism) and Red (Representing anarchocommunism with anarchosyndicalish chararacteristics)
- Draw a ball with eyes
- Draw a Red diagonal line through the ball
- Under the red line fill with Red colour, above the line fill with GoldOrange which represents Mutualism
You're finished!
