Sir, I have been in touch with you for the last 4 years and I am indebted to you for your education for those who don't afford LUMS fees. Btw sir could you care to mention some of your favt books on socialism, other than MARX

[@wajahatrana439]

Dr sahb, Is socialism a viable option for an Islamic state? How do we separate Islam from the state? Are you talking abt the same labor that killed the Srilankan in Sialkot. I would feel more comfortable living in a country that is run by alcoholics rather than by religious fanatics? I dont want these people to have any kind of power until unless Molvi factor is eliminated coz Molvi got some real power. Another question Let suppose for the sake of an argument if You become Prime minister and we are a socialist country, What would you do If Balochistan and KPK wants to declare themselves an Independent state? 3rd How can we evolve under socialism in technology when there is no incentive to do it? I can bet right now if they had FB or twitter in socialist economy they would ve been taken over by Gov. Nobody can become a millionaire in Socialism? Is that true? 4th Why cant we tax people and can decrease the wealth inequality like in Scandinavian countries by keeping Capitalism as our system?

[@jiensuyang3915]

Love how u Started the lecture with various definitions. Ur delivery is so real cuz it’s a blend of English n Urdu and for bilingual person it’s truly a treat . Urdu pinjabi and perfect English blend . U make use of ur skills perfectly to help us understand. U r addressing a huge population of Indian subcontinent n expats . A great service . Ppl from Pakistan are emerging as a unique class of brave intellectuals n academicians and humanitarians. I am not from Pakistan but I m very very very proud of Pakistan. I hope u grow n succeed n show the world what humanity truly is .

We need left and socialist-oriented parties in this election. We are fed up with mainstream parties. We have tried everything, all the main parties, and dictatorships and nothing has worked. Exactly as Dr. Taimur said Capitalism: A System for few.

Respected sir the propagation of free knowledge is so incredible that a true seeker will find. We all love 💕 you sir

[@MUK-yf2sw]

40:11 So can I deduct from this statement that socialism is against investment? For example, I have some money and I invest it somewhere. But because I am investing the money, I take the lion's share even though I paid the rightful amount to all my employees from top to bottom. Does this go against socialism? I will be glad if I can get an answer.

[@ayaan7911]

My understanding is, since you are the one who has invested the money, and has utilised the expertise of your workers in order to gain some profit, it’s not you who rightfully deserves the profit, the profit should be distributed amongst the workers and yourselves equally. Since the actual input of labour was provided by the workers, whereas the only thing you could provide was the jnitial capital. Socialism does not seek to reward capital with more money, it seeks to reward the workers who put in the actual input

[@MUK-yf2sw]

@@ayaan7911 where does the capital come from then? And why should an investor invest if he or she isnt getting anything in return?

[@omarkhan3256]

No Socialism is not against investment. How the profit is divided is to be divided is determined by the contract between the workers and the investor. The only thing that socialism forbids is the exploitation of workers. For example it would not be allowed that all the capitalists get together and decide a minimum wage for workers that does not even allow for a descent living just so that their profits are maximized.

[@thebeesandthehorses]

Thank you for the lecture 🙌

[@eldragon4076]

Too bad it's not in English. We are deprived of probably the most complete and accurate lessons. I was first introduced to you by accidently finding your lecture on Fascism. Have you read Djilas criticism of Socialism and the inevitability of the emergence of the new class?

[@omarkhan3256]

Djilas criticism was of totalitarian stalinistic state not socialism.

[@aamiraltaf2239]

A week ago on Facebook I came across a post where Syed Abu Ala Maududi's reference was given where he called Communism/Socialism a Jinn upon the nation, I causally asked the person who had shared the post, what he understood about the Communism/Socialism, he couldn't answer. This is the problem, people oppose things without even understanding them just because their heroes said so.

Phenomenal lecture. Sir I want to ask about "freedom of speech", like in US, you can criticize state and other factions of society as well but when we look at China the case is completely different like you can not say anything against state same case was with soviet union... Is it a tendency of socialist society to go towards Dictatorship?

Sir in this lecture, you stated that Socialist society would have Income gaps [according to their professions], would it not lead to stratification in the society and also leading to accumulation of wealth?

As an Indian socialist,it was so funny to see this guy put up a map of Pakistan in which Kashmir is shown as a part of Pak. Does he not know that the Islamic Imperialist State invaded and captured it and then carried out an ethnic cleansing of the Pandits there? This guy sounds much more like a Nazbol(National Bolshevik).

[@braveheart8318]

Peaceful revolution

[@azharlatif6228]

Prof.Taimur : Admire your study ,scope of socialist mode of governance ,exploring myriad of Dictionary definitions summarising "What is Socialism?". Recent metamorphoses of USSR into New Russia under Mr. Putin in the backdrop of war in Ukraine is worrying scenario for the West and the rest. How do you evaluate the geopolitical land scape of Pakistan surrounded by Afghani Taliban ,Indian hegemony in the subcontinent ,not overlooking climate change, food security? Mr. Imran Khan's survival after attempt on his life and limbs, murder of Arshad Shariff in Kenya are diverse events impacting Pakistan in dire economic straits invite your comments too.

[@sarfrazsae9226]

Socialism is the set of rules and regulations for the welfare of a society so these rules and regulations are basically socialism and it doesn't matter who puts them up there. So these rules and regulations provide red charge (energy) which encourages you to move or stop like a country has currency, health care set up, how to earn living, union of a man and woman etc

In my opinion Islam also propagates socialist type of economy , don’t know if I am completely right but In my opinion it all comes down to a combination of private and public owner ship with involvement of competition as well.

[@javedinayat7407]

Marx did not say means of productions should be handed over to people but he says only working class must control means of productions.

[@dr.sureshsanikommu7255]

It seems you read Marx only partially... According to Marx, the Proletarian overthrows the Capitalist state by revolution and takes control of the means of production. Subsequently, in proportion to the development of productive forces and disappearance of all class antagonisms, the State withers away and the production is managed by the people's associations.

[@alvesimam6618]

I think most of which professor delivered was in favor of ambitious State Capitalism which I also agree because even capitalist today except Ayn Rand fans agree full fledge Liberal economy is a disaster. Till date Vietnam, Lao and China also practice State Capitalism. I think the challenges in processing a Socialist State should also be addressed. Like in Venezuela's case. The only differentiation he gave was the governing entity which remains skeptic, for Socialist transformation there needs to be power of socialist in hand for which you need uninterrupted and consistent government which arises the need for authoritarianism. Just like what happened to South American country. They had to disqualify candidates and parties force fully. Therefore they have to limit choices. Hence all Communist States have one party rule or a coalition like in late GDR.

[@Taimur_Laal]

State capitalism exists when capitalists have state power. I’m advocating that workers should have state power.

[@alvesimam6618]

@@Taimur_Laal Yes. S to keep the workers in seat and to bar the Capitalist class from administration don't you have to ban "bourgeoisie" from elections or activism? Like we in Far east and late Soviet Union.
