It's an inconvenient truth for sure. I'm using sync right now because it's the best app experience on android at the moment if you don't need to top level post and because I used it with Reddit. This wasn't a big deal with Reddit imo, but using a closed source app to access an open source platform feels wrong.

It matters because the factories and more specifically, the workers who fill them are the ones creating value. Had they pulled out sooner, the result likely would have been the same, the state taking over management.

While I don't particularly care about private property being "repossessed" by the state, especially in an oligarchal capitalist state like Russia where it's not likely to have any large material benefit for the working class, its just funny that liberals throw stuff like this around without any analysis of the situation.

Lots of liberals on here parroting the "should have gotten out when they had the chance" line. In reality, the threat of capital flight is largely a myth. Sure, you can maybe escape with much of your finance capital, but you can't take the factories and the worker who fill them with you.
