That "decadence" included building Libya to be a welfare society with the basic necessities like housing, healthcare and education being free because they are human rights ( unlike in Capitalist, so-called democracies ). Water too was a human right in pre-2011 Libya to be had for free and to extend that he initiated the building of the world's biggest water delivery project called
Great Man Made River project. And Libya was
a true democracy which I consider the realization of Communism's desire for a society where there is "Withering away of the State" i.e. the people governing themselves i.e. direct democracy though the Libyans didn't consider their political system a part of Communism but Gaddafi had written an essay that was titled IIRC "Has Communism arrived yet ?".
This Libyan girl in mid-2011 didn't care for others ( Western governments and their allies ) describing Gaddafi as decadent and dictator and gathered in a defiant demonstration of support for Gaddafi and the Jamahiriya system of Libya even as NATO and its GCC allies were bombing Libya. I don't know what became of her.
Actually it is irrational, stupid Anglo-style so-called democracies like USA and India which are stable. From Henry Ford in "democratic" USA the 1930s whose thugs and puppet police shot demonstrating factory workers to the protesting farmers in "democratic" India's Delhi, protesting for 1.4 years until December 2021 and from among whom 700 farmers died of various causes needlessly, so-called democracies are stable because unfortunately stupidity is stable.
Well, I am a Communist so I will post the below Google result for "Communism" in simple words :
Will you say that what is desired above is a pretext for control ? Now Libya was a Socialist society ( they didn't call themselves Communist ) but when you read Libya's political arrangement in its society from my given link above you will see it being a system where the people participated directly in societal governance. There was no party boss ( party-less system ), no president, prime minister, chief minister, governor etc. The
people governed the society from neighborhood level to country level. Ideas from the top level were discussed at neighborhood level and those ideas were discussed elsewhere in the society and then were taken up at the General People's Congress at country level to be ratified or rejected as per the the ideas of the people. If you read the quoted article in the linked post you will see that even Gaddafi's proposals were sometimes rejected by the people. So unlike what you say there was no one there with a pretext to control others.
I agree about the existence of the oligarchs and this should not have been but the Russian government has not been Communist since the last 30 years but I am happy about two photos posted in this thread of two tanks in the Russian incursion carry USSR flags.
How are you describing the last few decades close to peace ? You missed the NATO invasions or regime-change attempts of Iraq, Libya, Syria and Venezuela in various ways just since 2003. It is NATO which has to dissolve and allow humanity to initiate abolishment of war once and for all.
Who told Indians to birth a 1.3 billion populace ? And logically the 1.3 billion Indian populace should mean at least a billion Indians who have contributed to the advancement of India and humanity. Brought political, technological, socio-economic and environmental advancement and harmony. India being multi-ethnic and multi-religious should not have counted. But has that been the case ? Why not ?
What do you mean by "wealth" ?
