    Agree! Communism is cancer, everyone who lived through it knows it. Tankies and other lefties should move to North Korea if they don’t like capitalism so much.

        Admit it, China and Russia gave up on “real communist” central planning because it just does not work. The remaining communist countries today like Cuba and North Korea are propped up by goods made by privately owned companies in larger states.

          There are way more alternatives to capitalism than just Soviet style central planning, man.

      Holy fuck. NO.

      Capitalism is as fucking bad as communism was. Capitalism isn’t some form of a blessing from the heavens. It’s a flawed system designed with exploitation in mind.

        No, there’s no exploitation in mind. Capitalism is built on rights and freedoms. Fuck off with your commie BS.

          Capitalism, by definition, is contrary to freedom. Capitalism is the concept, that the means of production should be in private hands. Those who hold the means of production get more influence by exploiting their workforce (or resources they hold) in order to centralise more accumulate more influence and means of production under themselves. Capitalists always strive to gain more power, money and influence. Capitalist think, that they should have the freedom to buy the world and exclude the working force from their circles. To them the working class is only a machine, meant to produce capital for them, subject to replace if it doesn’t work as expected anymore. The freedom of capitalism is the freedom for the rich. It is not the freedom for the working class.
