Capitalism v Communism

[Coto]

Hopefully we won't have to revisit them in our lifetimes.

Well, current Cuba situation and current 2030 United Nations agenda, (and some confidential docs) shows communists are back and they're taking over Latin America (that includes Russia and China). You'll hear more about it as time goes.

Lol in what world does Latin America include Russia and China? I don't think China is going back to actual communism any time soon now that the Chinese government rakes in profit from every business that operates there. Modern China is set up like a pyramid scheme, very similar to America. And Russia will have Putin as a dictator until he dies of old age.

I fully suspect that Putin will be embalmed like Lenin, unless Russia invents a Golden Throne, in which case he'll sit there forever WH40K-style. That man shows no signs of wear and tear - the devil doesn't take his own.

He does show plenty of hair loss so that's not entirely true, but at the very least he knows a strongman-style dictator has to continue looking strong in his public image; a lesson Trump apparently never picked up on from his Sith master.

Yeah he looks like he ate two Putins.

He was putin on some weight - if you want to beef up, you have to bulk up. Body building 101.

People have many faces, even if they only show you one at a time.

BTW, Our armed forces didn't behave the way you project it. Basically the coup was begged on by millions of chilean people and they decided to act. This to move on from Socialism.

Sadly in Venezuela, or Cuba their armed forces have gone full Communist. So it's kind of insulting to name chilean coup acts to be in the same group as earlier armed forces. Anyway, chileans are realizing this the hard way.... Yet once again, as same chilean decisions led the country, back in the sixties, to go into Socialism. It's both a curse and an endless- loop. Besides, If Pinochet was some sort of double agent, there's no way our Militia would have followed his orders.

By his own admission, Trump has never exercised a day in his life, weightlifting or cardio. It drains his "human battery" and makes him die sooner. Yes I wish I could go back to a more innocent time before I knew humans this stupid existed, thanks for asking.

Oh, I'm fully aware that the coup had fairly broad support of the population. It wasn't even the first coup, there were multiple within the span of a few years, which is very telling. This one just happened to be the one that succeeded. I'm not calling Pinochet a double-agent, I'm just calling him extreme because his measures were extreme. There's a reason why "free helicopter rides" entered the realm of dark humour.

Donald is far too active to squeeze in additional exercise - he's already the perfect masculine form, you can't improve on that.

Okay, no more shitposting, we've had fun.

Wow, what a shitty response. But what can I expect, if it comes from trolls.

1) Tell that to Tencent and CCP Business. (it may give you a hint how China works)

2) Learn some Latin America history and how every country here has, as of 2021, gone Communist. (Socialist Constitution, Communist President), and how China CCP interacts with each of them. (Although United Nations has "outsourced" that task now)

On wages, particularly minimum ones, then I do need to inject a favourite phrase at this point. That being the real minimum wage is zero -- if I am paying through the nose then I want something for my money. No olds, single parents, disabled people, dumb people, students with odd schedules, sick people... of course I will not say that when you don't get a call back (if I can't find a gap in your job history, grades I care about, someone else in the pile that was better... then my HR person is being fired too) but we all know the real reason.

This is probably why disabled people are always in perpetual poverty. Some employers are finding out that they perform just as well as their able bodied counterpart if not better.

Society don't give a rat's a** about the disabled, and they too face some of the things that falls under what is known as systemic racism. This basically excludes disabled people, and disability does not discriminate. I guess that is the reason why they are called "the orphaned minority".
I think I would support a system that will keep the disabled people out of perpetual poverty.

I was not trolling.

Great example of a capitalist business which benefits oligarchs.

2) Learn some Latin America history and how every country here has been, as of 2021, gone Communist. (Socialist Constitution, Communist President), and how China CCP interacts with each of them. (Although United Nations has "outsourced" that task now)

So capitalist China is buying up a bunch of houses and land in Latin America, and the capitalist governments down there are just letting it happen, right? I know because the exact same thing is happening in the US. If there was a hint of communism involved in those transactions, we'd be all over them like flies on shit, but China's currency converts to USD just fine.

If we had communism
We wouldn't have polls!

for what reason? I don't see why polls wouldn't exist under communism. Is it because you're unaware that communism does not mean authoritarian?

No, I mean polls for our Democracy
I remember in 2020 every day on THE NEWS I'D SEE POLLS ON TRUMP OR BIDEN

Umm... I hate to break it to you, but I'm pretty sure that would still happen under Communism. News stations who are covering the election (since I favor anarcho communism, weak government, is democratic) would still probably do polls. (rather than a CEO ontop. odds are

The only significant change I would imagine is the total amount of candidates. Since it would no longer be constrained to a two party system, but rather multiparty, if even parties at all.
Since if you own the means to production, it also means you already own the means to campaign.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Since in a Capitalist system, you don't own means, at least for 90% of the majority. Which also means you have to obtain the means through spending, which generally means
A. Your a wealthy business owner, which in that case, money isn't a problem
B. You suck up to a company for funds, or political party.
C. you attempt to raise money yourself and ignore (or don't have) access to the options above, this route often fails, since your going to easily be outspent.

That's pretty garbage. I don't like authoritarian governments. If you flee from one country, you should just be allowed to go to another.
However I don't get what bearing this has on the conversation. Modern China and Modern North Korea are both capitalist countries, and are still authoritarian to this day.
