Figure it out yourself.
I disagree. I know I’ll never be a rich capitalist. But if we’re all rich communists, then I’ll be rich.
You should use Hexbear. There aren’t any communists there. Just posers who think communism means supporting dictatorships.
I submit the price of eggs as evidence that if it were about self interest, there’d be a communist revolution tomorrow.
I have no interest in entertaining your false dichotomy.
I didn’t choose this username for no reason
The first one is true.
In democracy, the people rule society
In capitalism, the rich rule the economy
The economy always rules society
In a capitalist democracy, society serves two masters. Both opposites. It’s inherently unstable because it’s self contradicting.
Those are so similar to each other in comparison with capitalism that at this stage, we mostly use the same words to describe both.
Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.
You have power! You are responsible! You need to use that power. You need to make active choices in the world.
It’s because demand is inelastic. Every household needs one. No more, no less.
No. I recommended Lemmy to my friends, and they were all driven away by bad moderation, tankies, or transphobia within a day. They think I’m mad for using this site and surrounding myself with the people here.
They sent a message saying “Both of these choices suck by exactly the same amount. I have no preference”.
How can you win a war, when you lack the strength to grit your teeth and choose the lesser evil? Will you stamp your fists on the ground and demand no evil, while the greater evil slaughters your people? How many lives of your tribesmen will you give in order to send your message to the Democrats?
Allow our enemies to purge the weak from amongst our leaders. The strong will survive, and the tribe will grow stronger.
Maybe using a communist OS will radicalise them to the left
Now that he’s on a communist OS, maybe he’ll adopt some other communist/anarchist views
Like not saying the N word
They live in a culture of cowardice. They think violence is a shameful thing. They’re taught passivity from birth. Instead of learning to fight honourably, they’re taught not to fight at all. Not to yell. Not to argue. Not to protest. Not to kill. It’s the morality underpinning their society. It’s a mind prison that makes them into obedient servants to the master class.
If they converted to leftism, they could blame their economic troubles on Donald Trump and Jeff Bezos. Clearly it’s not just looking for someone to blame.
