The End of Capitalism in Germany is here

[Nightwish]

people who don't love Capitalism are a Communist.

Is that supposed to be an insult? You must really try harder.

insult?

its the truth.


fox news told me so.

So I think we all can agree that capitalism is the cancer that is killing us and that democratic socialism is what we need to have.

Now, I can bring you the happy news. It is pretty much confirmed that Germany will get a coalition of the SPD (Socialdemocratic Party Germany), Die Linke (The Lefts) and Die Grünen (The Greens) in 2017. For those who don't know what that means, all these parties are socialistic-minded and want to save the country from the cancer that is called capitalism.

And I'm so sorry for America, they must endure either Hillary "I take money from Wallstreet" Clinton or Donald "I'm a literal retard" Trump. Bernie could've saved them, but sadly too many Americans are blinded by capitalism.

What do you think?

Why the hell would you start a Topic like that in an English peaking forum ? -.-V

And actually you know that there is at least 3 lobbyists for every politician here in Germany ? and that these are not all just from the CDU/CSU ... the SPD and Grünen handed out lots of invites to those guys as well ...
How can you be so sure they will "win?" and cooperate ? if the SPD wants to create a new law and the Linken still say no to it together with the CDU they won't be able to do anything again as always.

So is Bernie Sanders the ruler of Germany now?

 

[guisadop]

Well, I surely hope it does not come back. Germans don't deserve another dark age. East germans know what I'm talking about.

EDIT: actually, anyone who lives or has lived in a country in which socialism was practiced knows what I'm talking about. There is no "democratic socialism", it's authoritarian by definition.

Yeah, I'm sure Germans are pretty happy at having no wage increases for 15 years while their banks do whatever the fuck they want, and are now broke.
Yay Capitalism with no regulation!

For what it's worth, Sanders' plan was never to end capitalism, it was just to balance it a bit better for the middle class by implementing socialist policies

Of course I know that. Multiple times he sated that capitalism could work just under more regulations. I stated that as a joke, since some felt that he was the man who would end capitalism (which he was not nor would he)

actually, anyone who lives or has lived in a country in which socialism was practiced knows what I'm talking about. There is no "democratic socialism", it's authoritarian by definition.

Democratic Socialism and Bureaucratic Socialism are different. People advocate for the former and are against the latter

Yay Capitalism with no regulation!

The bigger problem is crony capitalism.

I'm gonna have to disagree there, the root of the problem really is capitalism with either no regulation or regulations that favor corporations. I say this because there will always be one asshole who will take advantage of the system provided to him when there are no repercussions, which instantly turns it into crony capitalism

 

[RevPokemon]

I must first state that GBATemp of all places is not an ideal place to discuss such civic affairs, but nevertheless

regulations that favor corporations.

Which is crony capitalism

Absolutely but consider that it also varies on the amount of abuse and ultimately is a thing that should be eliminated.

the root of the problem really is capitalism with either no regulation

This is where I disagree (and I feel you do/will disagree with me). Regulation generally causes harm to the economy in that it essentially tries to control the market and ultimately fails since its control is artificial, but that is a whole nudder topic in its self.

You can't be happy about capitalism ending, you fucking dipshit!

I live in Brazil, a country that tried to end capitalism for 13 years and look at the deep shit we're in right now, and how our new right wing capitalist government is making everything good again.

Germany is doomed if that's the case, Germany has been doomed for a long time because of the stupid self hating left.

Never thought I'd say this, but we need another Hitler.

My apologies, you're right, I thought it meant something else

Out of curiosity what did you think I was speaking about?

What do you think?

i think you should go back to socialism
national socialism

Basically what I said, a bunch of people who take advantage of lax policies to get rich as opposed to an official government sanction

 

[gbaboy123]

We all need a small loan of a million dollars

Ok.

And another thing I forgot, we really need to prevent revolving doors.

If anyone cares, I did a test on politicalcompass.org and this is the result:

In case you've missed the news, most of Europe is socialist and I hope they vote Merkel out of office who's responsible for destabilizing Europe with her moronic policies on immigration.

 

[KingpinSlim]

I think you have no idea what you are talking about and what is actually going on in Germany or Europe.
Germany is becoming a horrible cesspit of racism once again and Nazi-parties are once again getting elected.
How could you have missed that?
The execution of the refugee-crisis was handled poorly and a lot of germans are doing what they always do when they are scared... they vote for Nazis again.
No one took the time to check what kind of people we actually let in and now we don't just have people fleeing war and death... we also have dangerous criminals in our midst.
Germans are among the most peaceful people in the world until they no longer feel safe in their own homes and then they begin to lash out.

You think we are bout to become socialists again?
That we will live in harmony with others and share what we have?
Don't fucking kid yourself.
It's about to get much worse if this situation isn't resolved quickly.
