Only read the abstract, and while I critically support Lukashenko and Belarus, and I'm sure they have taken some based policies and so on, don't you think calling it socialist may be a little too much? I mean, here in Argentina we have free healthcare, free education, public transport could be better (but it exists), water, gas and energy infrastructure exists in big proportions in the public level, but I would not dare call use socialists; sure, maybe the policies are, but not our government. Just a comparison, and an ignorant question since I'm not an expert on Belarus.

Argentina is far from socialism on widespread racism alone.

all other aspects are irrelevant until that is gone.

Strange take. World is racist. Racism is a capitalist issue. As long as capitalism is around, we can’t get rid of it.
