the reeeeeeturn of the thiiiin white duuukeeee

The essential notion of a capitalist society is voluntary cooperation and voluntary exchange. The essential notion of a socialist society is fundamentally force.
Couldn’t have been said better

Who taught you this bullshit lmao

There is not a scarcity of resources lol

We waste like 40 tons of food per year

Lil Milton

there are people in this country who refuse to go see a doctor because they don't want to be left with medical bills

that alone should tell how how big of a f***ing failure your capitalism is.

those economic systems are not stable because they come at the extreme expense of both the environment and the global south

the english peasants were forcibly proletarianized in order for the industrial revolution and capitalism to kick off ... theres that "voluntary exchange" for you

this is purely theoretical. If people really did do that s*** companies like Nestle and Nike and all that would not exist

also doesnt account for the reality of the situation

if a certain energy company has a monopoly or close to monopolistic hold over a state's energy production, the consumers cant simply "choose" for it to go green without putting it under public control ... good luck boycotting PG and E in CA

lmao fr

people are like communism is only theoretical!!!!! and meanwhile they continue to argue purely theoretical benefits to capitalism

sounds more like america than just "capitalism". granted, you'd get rid of this with a socialist system but sweden is capitalist and we have free healthcare

proponents for swedish capitalism ignore the imperialist effect it has on the global south

Again I have no problem with companies but we should be holding them accountable for the bullshit they do similar to how people are tried in court. Stop paying for damages done after its been done and actually jail them or knock them down.

This is all pertaining to the environment

tell me a successful socialist or communist country lmao

Capitalism

Corporations control our political sphere, large swaths of the media, and forcibly instate monopolies- all of which create artificial demand.

When Verizon and AT&T spend millions lobbying to maintain their oligopoly over internet services, what alternative do we turn to in order to stop "demanding" their products?

Nothing falls into the category of 'purely theoretical' more than socialism

100%

Marxist ideals can't be achieved without forceful/violent coercion

You've said yourself a million times that the only solution is 'violent revolution'

If government was smaller - like it should be - then government wouldn't have any power that corporations could lobby for
