    I don’t think today is the day you want to throw hands with the queen.





    If she dropped that green old deal bullshit she would someday be more than a congressperson from Brooklyn. If she believes it and is willing to die on that hill that's her call. But it is political suicide

    We are seeing today that Cruz / AOC mind meld that could have been a daily event had you not chosen so poorly last November. Nobody knows better how billionaires game the system than an alleged billionaire who gamed the system for 40 years. Your original instinct to go Trump was correct. You got waylaid by the noise just like they wanted you to.

    I don't like Cruz but he is getting himself at the front of the line. Since I am not a teen girl I would vote for him even if he is @creepycoug looking.

    Hell I'd vote for AOC over most of the shit out there now
    Trump had four years and didn’t do shit about billionaires rigging anything. They got those tax cuts though.
    So did the American working class. Record low unemployment in February 2020 and you blame Trump. Keep rooting for the commies.
    Record low unemployment, stock market booming.

    I am the commies, dumb fuck, and there isn’t a single commie in Washington to root for.
    Why aren't there any commies to vote for? Weird.
    Because the United States government engaged in decades of propaganda against communism. I’d say that’s the single biggest reason. That’s why you see Boomers and Gen Xers just calling random shit they don’t like communism. They were taught communism bad, capitalism good so anything they don’t like is communism and anything they like is capitalism.
    People fleeing Cuba to escape Communism under the Castros is American “propaganda?” Tell me how that works.
    People leave countries to go to better countries all the time. Cuba has a dictatorship and the most powerful country in the world with its boot on their throat, I wouldn’t expect life to be great there.
    And there you have it, Cuba is a shithole but it's our fault.

    Wtf?

    Those motherfuckers helped point nukes at us with serious intent to fire and are still under a similar dictatorship as they were 50 years ago.

    They dug their own grave. Blame Castro and Mother Russia.

    I think simplifying propaganda down to “marketing” is really stupid. While there’s obviously a connection, teaching people that something is evil so they don’t sympathize with a country you’re at war with isn’t like selling a bag of Cheetos.
    What is the main reason communism hasn't worked?
    I would say the main reason is because it aims to take power from the powerful. So you have situations where people can seize that power for themselves or where the already powerful can stomp it out to protect their power.

    Ever talked to someone who lived in or still is stuck in a communist country and asked them how they like it?

    True communism will never work because some people (me) are a lot more intelligent than others (you) and I’d never agree to a system where my business and electrician skills are paid the same as your booger-eating skills of sitting at home. Plus, someone is alway going to rule and live better, as has been shown every time Marxism has been the form of government in any society.

    No fucking shit. So when people like me get in charge of whats equal I'm for sure hooking up my friends and family.

    Then the starving fucks can give me their daughter for a few nights and I'll reward them with some bread and milk.
    I can’t tell if you’re describing communism or capitalism.

    The key is democracy. Democratize the workplace. Have workers own the means of productions, not individuals, not the state.

    Even the Yanomami have shamans, and there is no currency in their rainforest economy. Yet they still worship some weirdo who gets high all day long.

    If she dropped that green old deal bullshit she would someday be more than a congressperson from Brooklyn. If she believes it and is willing to die on that hill that's her call. But it is political suicide

    We are seeing today that Cruz / AOC mind meld that could have been a daily event had you not chosen so poorly last November. Nobody knows better how billionaires game the system than an alleged billionaire who gamed the system for 40 years. Your original instinct to go Trump was correct. You got waylaid by the noise just like they wanted you to.

    I don't like Cruz but he is getting himself at the front of the line. Since I am not a teen girl I would vote for him even if he is @creepycoug looking.

    Hell I'd vote for AOC over most of the shit out there now
    Trump had four years and didn’t do shit about billionaires rigging anything. They got those tax cuts though.
    So did the American working class. Record low unemployment in February 2020 and you blame Trump. Keep rooting for the commies.
    Record low unemployment, stock market booming.

    I am the commies, dumb fuck, and there isn’t a single commie in Washington to root for.
    Why aren't there any commies to vote for? Weird.
    Because the United States government engaged in decades of propaganda against communism. I’d say that’s the single biggest reason. That’s why you see Boomers and Gen Xers just calling random shit they don’t like communism. They were taught communism bad, capitalism good so anything they don’t like is communism and anything they like is capitalism.
    So I guess it’s just a marketing problem? If only people had not bad mouthed communism, it would have worked out.
    I think simplifying propaganda down to “marketing” is really stupid. While there’s obviously a connection, teaching people that something is evil so they don’t sympathize with a country you’re at war with isn’t like selling a bag of Cheetos.
    What is the main reason communism hasn't worked?
    I would say the main reason is because it aims to take power from the powerful. So you have situations where people can seize that power for themselves or where the already powerful can stomp it out to protect their power.
    No fucking shit. So when people like me get in charge of whats equal I'm for sure hooking up my friends and family.

    Then the starving fucks can give me their daughter for a few nights and I'll reward them with some bread and milk.
    I can’t tell if you’re describing communism or capitalism.

    The key is democracy. Democratize the workplace. Have workers own the means of productions, not individuals, not the state.
    Workers are mostly shitty and retarded. If I could I would fire everyone but like 2 people and automate the rest.

    In your fantasy world people are competent. Spoiler. They aren't.


    In fact I'm about a week away from finishing our warehouse system build and I can finally fire 2 dumb fucks and replace them with minimum wage labor.

    Ever talked to someone who lived in or still is stuck in a communist country and asked them how they like it?
    Have you ever read accounts from slaves owned in America? What about Native Americans? What about people from countries victim to America’s imperialism? Do you honestly think I can’t find people with bad things to say about capitalist countries?

    But you’ll never assign blame to capitalism. If something bad happens within a thousand miles of communism, it’s communism’s fault. Castro kills a bunch of people and communism bad but steal land from Native Americans and genocide them? All of the sudden it’s complicated and the economic system that demanded the land be taken, well, what’s that got to do with anything.

    This, too, should be on the Finance board, but I'll allow it.

    Here's what I think:

    1. There is an interesting academic discussion to be had about Marxism. A small amount of what you have said would be relevant in that discussion.

    2. The most charitable read of communism is that it's a concept well before its time. That is, there may be a day when technology and human-knowledge is such that we have essentially eradicated scarcity w/o the need for market forces, are able to allocate resources perfectly, again w/o market forces, and basic human culture has evolved to a degree such that some of the basic individual motivators for innovation and value creation are not longer important and thus no longer ... given effect. My read of Marxist theory is more along those lines. If it ever happens, we probably won't really connect it back to Marx and it will be so long from now that it's really just good academic discourse ... exercise for the mind.

    3. This isn't the place to have that kind of discussion.

    4. As a practical matter, it's a waste of time to defend because it has failed so miserably.

    You’re still stuck in a 1619 project, middle school level world view. Communism is far worse and more terrifying than any system. Hey guess what, in the history of the world there have been shitty things that happened, so that means capitalism is bad and we need to replace it with something worse that has failed everywhere! Deflect all you want, no one enjoys living under the boot of communism.
