Why millennials are drawn to socialism

[Amarok]

The difference between Stalinism and Marxism is immaterial to the shared fundamental weaknesses that ensure neither are likely to survive in more or less peaceful coexistence with robust capislist alternatives over the long run, and both can only plausibly thrive by exploiting some transient opening to impose itself violently and quickly and then maintain itself through continued violence and suppression in excess of those required by their competitors.

1. No it's quite material as they are polar opposite 

2.Marxism can compete with capitalism and in the right circumstances win . Without violence or suppression.

No, whatever other things Soviet system has it also has those traits of true Marxism that would make it uncompetitive against other systems hostile to it and thus make true Marxism fail just as Soviet communism has failed. Without being very true to Marxism, it already demonstrates who Marxism is uncompetitive.

Nope Stalinism can't work . Marxism was not even tried . Marxism can work and can win .
