Why does anyone still think Communism can work?
Why does anyone still think Communism can work?
OP's a fag
It can be good
That's the theory of it atleast
Never quite seems to work out, does it champ?
Capitalism has always failed.
"Communism will never work because people like to own things"
Frank Zappa
Not as long as humans are involved.
Well that's just a theory afterall
how did you post here? What device do you use?
Some theory
Everything fails in practice
People suck
You suck
OP is a faggot
>thinking capitalism is still alive
Communism is a belief system, not a theory.
The evidence based knowledge hierarchy, OP:
3. A law (something that always works even if you don't believe it e.g. the law of natural selection, the law of supply and demand (which communists and minimum wage believers deny effectively exists)).
2. A theory (all of the known evidence agrees with your assertion e.g. the theory of gravity or the theory of evolution).
1. A hypothesis (you've got some evidence to support you assertion but you need more thought and experimentation to increase sample size).
0. A wild guess (there is no evidence for or against your assertion e.g. "Call it in the air").
-1 A belief system (no real evidence supports your assertion and some real evidence refutes it e.g. "god exists" or "changing the minimum wage without changing the supply or demand for labor helps people").
The value of your idea is only as good as the evidence that supports it, user.
And please try to be more aware that your smart phone doesn't help you think effectively. The algorithms are only designed to help you be more biased to keep your attention.
wat
Who makes the best cigars in the world?
Outside of MAYBE (kek) Lenin all those faggots were dictators.
Dictators gonna dictate, regardless of what they call it
Lol all the pictures on the right are people just being normal in a capitalist society but uhhh ok?
And isn't it a feature of communism to be ruled by a dictator and one party?
Go consume more, faggots.
Not him
Subjective.
I personally like Nicaraguan maduro above most else.
i dont use commi products, do you?
Don't you have a welfare check to pick up?
Who make those? A worker or a capitalist?
My phone and laptop were both manufactured in a communist country so yeah pretty much XD
A GAME THEORY
Thanks for watching
What is your job?
I don't understand it either. Look at how much of a shit hole Russia and North Korea is.
Look at Europe, socialism is fucking crippling them.
I know a Romanian guy with master's degrees in Economics, that's an illegal immigrant in Los Angeles working at a fucking restaurant under the table.
He makes $2,100.00 a month. He said if he worked in the Romanian civil servant, he would only take home $700.00 after taxes in 1 month.
I also have a good drinking buddy who is a English civil engineer. He works at Home Depot in Bakersfield. He told me working home depot mixing paint makes double the amount than doing engineering work back in England. This is pre-Brexit, so I don't know if taxes got any lower.
I also know a French MD cardiologist, she graduated from Oxford medical school. Fucking Oxford Med along with a Bachelor's in Physics. She left France because of all the Morrocan and middle-eastern refugees fucking up Paris. She claimed asylum and now lives happily in San Diego currently.
Fuck socialism and communism.
Who provides the machinery, resources, capital, and everything else the worker needs to do his/her job?
>thinking China is communist anymore
>Doesn't smoke cigars
The wealth that a worker have made?
It's a feature of a lot of political ideologies.
Faggots like Franco were very anti-communism but we're also dictators and so dictated with brutal force in the very same way that pic I responded to portrays.
It's god damned terrifying that people think socialism works!
Why does anyone still think Capitalism can work?
Nope
No gibs here. Bet you actually get more from the community than I do.
>thinking it's not
KEK
Go take an economics course....
>he says posting from a device made possible thanks to capitalism
Go ahead and explain how China is communist. I'll wait.
>inb4 "it's in the name"
If capitalism is so great how come there's no capitalism 2?
I mean I could or you could Google unitary single party socialist republic and see for yourself. (That's the type of government they have in China.)
If capitalism is so great why is the standard of living declining in all capitalist countries while the standard of living is improving in all communist countries?
This is also ostensibly the same type of government North Korea has.
Nigga, in what way are the means of production controlled by the workers? You know that they arrest people trying to unionize
reuters.com
>citation desperately needed
The standard of commujist countries is improving just because it couldn't have been any lower.
They are still miles behind capitalist countries
??? It's not up for debate. It's a fact that's the government if China. Unitarian single party socialist republic. All your other theory bullshit is irrelevant.
You're retarded.
Is this why Cuba has developed a lung cancer vaccine while the US has not? Or why China is the largest and fastest growing economy on the planet?
... you don't even know what socialism is, do you
Actually it was funny and creative but you're autistic lol
Stay mad your shit economic system will never get a sequel.
the public library computer?
the other guy is right, china is in no way communist. The means of production and wealth are much more tightly held by the ruling elites in china than in practically anywhere. The leadership is totalitarian and not spread over the state equally. It's not at all communist.
In the early days of communism in the DRPK, the standard of living was higher than it was in the South. Look at South Korea now. One of the richest and highest standards of living in Asia. You're retarded if you think communism works. Communism claimed the lives of millions. > but my way of socialism would work
>using computers developed under capitalism using technology that could only come about with the innovation a free market provides
Why aren't there computers made by the government then? They're all made by private corporations.
It doesn't need a sequel. It's the end product, faggot. Move to a communism state if you love it so much.
Prove it.
using computers developed under government sponsored research funded by the taxes...
Who do you think funded the research that sent men to space and paid for the development of the communication network and the internet in general? Private companies? Lol no.
Because that's workers collectively owning the means of production right?
Only absolute retards and wannabe dictators.
You realise every single company in China is ran by the government, right?
Bawww if you don't like what I like leave me to my safe space bawwww my ideas can't handle criticism waaaaaah
He doesn't realize that because he knows nothing about China or communism in practice.
Capitalism has claimed the lives of millions as well. Soooooooooooo not a great argument?
Not a leftist, retard. I actually engage in dialogue rather than shutting it down. Don't be a fucking fool and think it works. It doesn't kys.
Cool, the government controlling a business that operates in a free market is communism. TIL
Paid for by taxes and developed by the private sector
You literally are telling him to leave if he doesn't agree with you and telling me to kill myself because I don't agree with you. Baaaw I need a safe space waaaaaaah.
the fuck are you talking about retard?
There is no free market in China.
Labour camps for speaking against the regime sounds fun, right?
Communism has never been truly attempted. Just various forms of state capitalism
Government forcing citizens to give their hard earned money to citizens who didn’t earn it is never good
Lol counting every person that does in a country as a victim of the ideology. Got bad news about the US bud.
Wait I thought China was a capitalist country though???
oh you simple child
I'm telling him to fuck off to a communist state if he loves it so much. Fucking retard.
Capitalist nations don't build walls to keep their citizens from escaping
Nobody who earns their money gets it taken from them under communism. Only the people who specifically don't work for it.
Haven't you been reading the thread? China is communist!
China practices capitalist fascism
yes i do, because it's totalitarian. That does not make it a communist country. They own those companies and use them to make vast amounts of money in the global market. That is the opposite of communist.
Prove what? the fact that the average chinese gets nothing from their government which owns everything? Thats pretty obvious fact already. That is again the opposite of a communist regime.
Correct because your ideas cannot handle inspection. Your solution is that he go away so you don't have to cry anymore. Sounds like somebody wants their own little safe space
Capitalist nations build walls to keep out degenerate scum.
since when?
Prove it.
See
China is a perfect example of Communism
Actually they're a unitarian single party socialist republic but communist is a good shorthand.
The CCP (Chinese communist party) is in charge. Clue is in the name.
