Communism is fucking stupid. How the hell do people unironically support it thinking it'll help people? Capitalism isn't perfect, but look at capitalist nations like Germany and Japan, and compare them to shitholes like Cuba and North Korea.They always say that we just haven't tried REAL communism yet, but they never explain what real communism is and why if capitalism is so horrible, why so many capitalist nations do well. At this point, I'm convinced it's just an excuse by edgy college students to justify not having a job.

>North Korea
>Communist

Better dead than red!!!

Yeah, I know they switched to Juche, but what system got them to how they are in the first place?

Japan has the highest debt to GDP ratio in the entire world

Any pure economic ideology a shit.
Functioning democracy where people can choose what sort of economic policies they want a best.
Spoiler: They always pick mostly capitalism with some limited amount of government involvement.
Spoiler 2: I don't even know if spoilers work on Sup Forums right now and I can't be bothered to check.

It looks good on paper but doesn't work out. It would be good if it actually did though.

That debt may catch up to them someday, but that day is not today, and even then, they are way better off than nearly every communist state to ever exist.

Post your ebin gommunism memes

China is America's biggest creditor

how the hell can you compare the Soviet Union to Liberia? Capitalism fails.

Pure capitalism is as fucked as pure communism. Ideology is how we wish people would actually act rather than how they actually do act.

Stop your "looks good on paper" bullshit, even on paper, you can point out problems.

>germany and japan

>because a nation of cuck's and a nation of weaboo's is better then a communist country

This. Both systems are shit!

Because of people in communism with capitalistic views that's my faglord two sheckles

/thread

Capitalism is fuking stupid but we all work ourselves to death to support that, what's the fukken difference you tool...

>but communism can be corrupted and and and

lol please tell us all about how corruption-proof we are here

>Spend 70 years undermining every communist country to exist
>Install CIA friendly dictators that drive the country into ruin shortly afterwards.

>"Why does communism suck so bad?"

Also, when the Singularity hits and all work will be able to be done by robots, bots, and AIs, all previous economic systems will immediately become obsolete.

>be the soviet union
>have the first satellite in space
>have the first person in space
>have the first robot land on Mars
>have the first robot land on the moon
>Defeat Nazism
>Transform Eastern Europe from a peasant agricultural society into a technologial society at the cutting edge of science in just 40 years, despite a world war costing 20 million of your citizens' lives. Meanwhile capitalist countries which started in an equal position are still peasant agricultural societies
>Be the first country in the world to offer equal rights to all people in practice, not just law
>have the first national health service in the world, even before Britain
>Be called unsuccessful

This.

USA talks a big game about capitalism, because consumer spending is huge and is essential in driving circulation and a shitload of other shit. ...but then uses socialism to provide everything capitalism either fails to or won't risk, which is, most of the things people need to live. Think about the total cost of securing and procuring all the shit you eat, drink, and use on a daily basis. Shitloads of companies, all built on a pile of at least once, if not currently nationalized services vertically integrated.

Econ 101 is still just 101 kids.

Same rather it die than be shithole for centuries like the usa

And they managed to do that in the situation of having lost most of a generation and entire regions wiped out by actual full-scale war instead of the piddly western front bullshit, did it with no fucking money while the rest of europe was taking in Murrican cash to rebuild their pretty buildings, AND managed to do it while locked in an economic and strategic war against the biggest, wealthiest, most capable country in the world, the United States, as their #1 enemy.

I mean, I'm no fan of most of the shit that went on in either country, but you gotta admit, it's wayyyy beyond what any other country on earth has managed to do in that kind of situation, especially with the resources available to them.

bumping for the bait
