Attributing deaths from interventionism to capitalism, the dumb article you shared

2017-08-07 17:35:55 UTC

Third time I've posted this "I gave it as food for thought versus the "Communist Death Toll" meme, I hadn't read it all."

2017-08-07 17:36:18 UTC

if you disagree, it's your job to defend capitalism's legacy

2017-08-07 17:36:23 UTC

not mine to defend communism's

2017-08-07 17:36:29 UTC

I'm not a communist

2017-08-07 17:36:56 UTC

I'm just debunking the idiotic idea that capitalism is somehow more interventionist than other systems

2017-08-07 17:37:18 UTC

And what are you then?

2017-08-07 17:37:49 UTC

Where did you debunk this? You posted an article to suggest Chinese involvement in Vietnam could've resulted in as much as/more death than the US's involvement

2017-08-07 17:37:53 UTC

which is completely untrue

2017-08-07 17:38:35 UTC

Because interventionism happens regardless, and the U.S was more isolationist when they were more free market than they are now

2017-08-07 17:38:46 UTC

then why invade Vietnam?

2017-08-07 17:39:00 UTC

To spread their influence in asia, as I already said

2017-08-07 17:39:03 UTC

"interventionism happens regardless" < this betrays your true motive

2017-08-07 17:39:34 UTC

''You posted an article to suggest Chinese involvement in Vietnam could've resulted in as much as/more death than the US's involvement'' See north and south korea

2017-08-07 17:39:42 UTC

Glorious chinese backed north korea

2017-08-07 17:39:54 UTC

no death there

2017-08-07 17:39:59 UTC

to assert interventionism without providing a solid incentive as to why a country would expend resources to affect a change in government is your fallacy

2017-08-07 17:40:07 UTC

<:lenin:322125387297456131> I AM ALIVE COMRADES!

2017-08-07 17:40:11 UTC

yo

2017-08-07 17:41:02 UTC

There was always an incentive to intervene in other countries to install a more friendly government

2017-08-07 17:41:12 UTC

If you can't see that I don't know what to tell you

2017-08-07 17:41:47 UTC

Installing a more friendly government is a one-off event contingent on the previous government being unfriendly

2017-08-07 17:41:54 UTC

Profiteering is a continuous process

2017-08-07 17:41:58 UTC

profiteering never ends

2017-08-07 17:42:03 UTC

as long as there is profit to be had

2017-08-07 17:42:10 UTC

doesn't make sense

2017-08-07 17:42:30 UTC

what the soviets did in eastern europe was not a one off event fam

2017-08-07 17:42:37 UTC

neither what china did in north korea

2017-08-07 17:42:50 UTC

ugh

2017-08-07 17:43:48 UTC

nasty anti-communist government overthrown = gone, no more intervention
nasty anti-capitalist government overthrown = gone, continuous intervention to harvest resources

2017-08-07 17:44:18 UTC

capitalism is good for harvesting resources yes, unlike socialism

2017-08-07 17:44:21 UTC

even if we are to take your false dichotomy at face value

2017-08-07 17:44:23 UTC

LOL

2017-08-07 17:44:41 UTC

"yes it's true we rape the world, our cock's much longer than the communists"

2017-08-07 17:44:47 UTC

''rape the world''

2017-08-07 17:44:47 UTC

you snake

2017-08-07 17:44:57 UTC

Did the soviets rape russia?

2017-08-07 17:45:00 UTC

YES

2017-08-07 17:45:08 UTC

arguable

2017-08-07 17:45:11 UTC

ahahaha

2017-08-07 17:45:15 UTC

jesus christ!

2017-08-07 17:45:41 UTC

They turned a backwards country with an 18% literacy rate and massive poverty into an industrial powerhouse with an 88%+ literacy rate in under 50 years

2017-08-07 17:45:46 UTC

won the space race

2017-08-07 17:45:51 UTC

increased healthcare provisions

2017-08-07 17:45:53 UTC

top kek

2017-08-07 17:46:01 UTC

and gulags don't forget that one

2017-08-07 17:46:06 UTC

no free speech

2017-08-07 17:46:27 UTC

typical soviet propaganda

2017-08-07 17:46:28 UTC

like I said

2017-08-07 17:46:30 UTC

arguable

2017-08-07 17:46:33 UTC

how are you not a communist again?

2017-08-07 17:46:59 UTC

because I don't believe the communist mode of production can be obtained in the near future

2017-08-07 17:47:10 UTC

so what do you believe is a good system?

2017-08-07 17:47:47 UTC

not how it works, you don't get to make claims about communism then attack the person

2017-08-07 17:48:04 UTC

there are no rules

2017-08-07 17:48:12 UTC

Answer, what do you think would work best?

2017-08-07 17:48:51 UTC

I'm not sure, perhaps some Keynesian mix of automation and UBI?

2017-08-07 17:50:29 UTC

gone offy quiet

2017-08-07 17:50:52 UTC

did you get around to those articles yet?

2017-08-07 17:51:42 UTC

No, probably won't ever read them

2017-08-07 17:51:56 UTC

lol

2017-08-07 17:52:03 UTC

So many things to read, don't think I'll ever get to it

2017-08-07 17:53:33 UTC

shame, they provide quite a compelling case as to why military exploitation of sovereign nations is a more predominantly (if not exclusively) capitalistic feature

2017-08-07 17:54:05 UTC

2017-08-07 17:54:17 UTC

Well that's false right off the bat

2017-08-07 17:54:28 UTC

So I'm glad I didn't read that trash

2017-08-07 17:54:35 UTC

you posted it

2017-08-07 17:54:36 UTC

lol

2017-08-07 17:54:47 UTC

military exploitation exclusive to capitalism?

2017-08-07 17:54:52 UTC

What utter trash

2017-08-07 17:54:59 UTC

" is a more predominantly (if not exclusively) capitalistic feature"

2017-08-07 17:55:00 UTC

What kind of a brainlet writes that?

2017-08-07 17:55:10 UTC

is a more predominantly (*if not exclusively*) capitalistic feature

2017-08-07 17:55:17 UTC

it's like you can't even read

2017-08-07 17:55:23 UTC

IF NOT EXCLUSIVELY

2017-08-07 17:55:38 UTC

Why didn't they investigate to make sure it was or wasn't?

2017-08-07 17:55:44 UTC

Sounds like a shit article

2017-08-07 17:56:02 UTC

Gentleman.

2017-08-07 17:56:03 UTC

LMAO THE SCHOLARS DON'T KNOW DEY STOOPID

2017-08-07 17:56:07 UTC

Did research but oh I can't say if it's exclusive to capitalism or not

2017-08-07 17:56:10 UTC

The Jews are to blame.

2017-08-07 17:56:16 UTC

Appeal to authority, what a brainlet

2017-08-07 17:56:19 UTC

not this time I'm afraid, RFZ

2017-08-07 17:56:26 UTC

In other words

2017-08-07 17:56:32 UTC

2017-08-07 17:56:53 UTC

"I didn't read the article I gave to try and refute you, I don't plan to read it, and I don't care if it gives a strong argument that I'm wrong"

2017-08-07 17:57:05 UTC

this is your brain on /pol/

2017-08-07 17:57:10 UTC

No I know it's dumb since it even implies it's exclusive to capitalism

2017-08-07 17:57:20 UTC

It's such a dumb statement it makes it all worthless

2017-08-07 17:57:33 UTC

"is a more predominantly (*if not exclusively*) capitalistic feature"

2017-08-07 17:57:39 UTC

I may as well make this my username

2017-08-07 17:57:39 UTC

And you don't even know why it implies it

2017-08-07 17:57:40 UTC

"is a more predominantly (*if not exclusively*) capitalistic feature"

2017-08-07 17:57:44 UTC

@Deleted User "exploitation and domination of other nations is a capitalist phenomenon"

2017-08-07 17:58:01 UTC

hurr durr I don't know, i just did the research but what do I know?

2017-08-07 17:58:18 UTC

Like the image above says, it's blatantly not the case
