He'll lose all his money

2017-07-06 17:27:32 UTC

The fact that there will be a codified "Worker's have the right to the means of production" does not mean a socialist country can't be sustained.

2017-07-06 17:27:37 UTC

sorry for just leaving before

2017-07-06 17:27:57 UTC

can sustain but not thrive like a capitalism system

2017-07-06 17:28:04 UTC

Alright.

2017-07-06 17:28:10 UTC

So you're saying the capitalist won't like that?

2017-07-06 17:28:24 UTC

won't like what?

2017-07-06 17:28:26 UTC

the reason the lead-in-food company will go out of buisness is not a market mechanism, but because they'll be fined or worse

2017-07-06 17:28:41 UTC

a socialist economy, and a socialist country?

2017-07-06 17:28:46 UTC

Because I agree.

2017-07-06 17:28:47 UTC

fined and sued by the people they harm

2017-07-06 17:28:56 UTC

I consider that in my views.

2017-07-06 17:29:08 UTC

yes, but that doesn't have much to do with capitalism

2017-07-06 17:29:10 UTC

the people in charge of that socialist society would very much like that

2017-07-06 17:29:35 UTC

yes it does, if someone damages you and they didn't say so at all you can sue them

2017-07-06 17:29:35 UTC

A socialist system is independent of a capitalist one.

2017-07-06 17:29:49 UTC

laws still exist in a capitalist system

2017-07-06 17:29:50 UTC

yes, but sueing isn't a capitalist thing

2017-07-06 17:30:03 UTC

that's just the way our states work

2017-07-06 17:30:10 UTC

Yes it is

2017-07-06 17:30:24 UTC

I'm not arguing ancap, even they have the nap

2017-07-06 17:30:36 UTC

You can still sue people for doing you or your family harm

2017-07-06 17:30:55 UTC

yes, but that happens under many systems

2017-07-06 17:31:10 UTC

I'm not saying it's capitalistic only

2017-07-06 17:31:10 UTC

Timo, what you're proposing simply isn't sustainable or coherent if we consider that the majority of the world is of the working-class.

2017-07-06 17:31:21 UTC

Just that you can take on a company in capitalism

2017-07-06 17:31:47 UTC

Most of the people in working class are happy with it (currently less thanks to neo liberalism)

2017-07-06 17:31:58 UTC

ask teh rest of the world

2017-07-06 17:32:17 UTC

They're happy, but that's temporary.

2017-07-06 17:32:18 UTC

class struggle is very obvious in most 3rd world countries

2017-07-06 17:32:18 UTC

Working class is mostly mad because of the welfare state and in my country the refugees sucking up their money

2017-07-06 17:32:50 UTC

I don't think a lot of countries are truly capitalistic, sampuka

2017-07-06 17:33:14 UTC

how do you define capitalism then? because I can't point to a non-capitalist country

2017-07-06 17:33:23 UTC

ehm maybe north korea

2017-07-06 17:33:31 UTC

and somalia hardly has a system

2017-07-06 17:33:38 UTC

Most of what we have now is corporatism, I'm sure you'd agree

2017-07-06 17:33:44 UTC

Singapore is a good example

2017-07-06 17:33:49 UTC

very economically free

2017-07-06 17:33:50 UTC

@Timo))) That's why Communists seek out to promote class consciousness, because even though that's an issue of class society and capitalism, they don't blame it on those two things.

2017-07-06 17:33:51 UTC

I'd say corporatism is very much capitalism

2017-07-06 17:33:53 UTC

very rich for a small country

2017-07-06 17:34:13 UTC

Two different thing to me, that's why i'm not happy with what we currently have

2017-07-06 17:34:14 UTC

there's no difference between capitalism and corporatism

2017-07-06 17:34:20 UTC

size of the vountry hardly matters

2017-07-06 17:34:30 UTC

If it was I should be happy

2017-07-06 17:34:30 UTC

corporatism naturally occurs from capitalism

2017-07-06 17:34:38 UTC

like monopolies

2017-07-06 17:34:46 UTC

it's not that there's no difference between capitalism and corporatism, but that it's just an ill comparison

2017-07-06 17:34:54 UTC

capitalism is a mode of production

2017-07-06 17:35:00 UTC

not if the government can't give certain countries the upper hand

2017-07-06 17:35:01 UTC

and corporatism is hardly well-defined anywhere

2017-07-06 17:35:18 UTC

hardly defined but definitely what we have now

2017-07-06 17:35:32 UTC

the socialists see this right, it's just the answer I'm not happy with from them

2017-07-06 17:35:35 UTC

I don't follow, I've never learned what corporatism is

2017-07-06 17:35:42 UTC

care to define it for me because I've never heard one?

2017-07-06 17:36:00 UTC

When the government bails out corporations with our money

2017-07-06 17:36:01 UTC

corporatism seems to be what occurs between capitalist and political forces, and the policies that results from that inter-mingling.

2017-07-06 17:36:11 UTC

but the state is very much a part of capitalsm

2017-07-06 17:36:16 UTC

^

2017-07-06 17:36:18 UTC

When you need to be a part of some union before you can even have your business

2017-07-06 17:36:23 UTC

not at all

2017-07-06 17:36:35 UTC

yes it is

2017-07-06 17:36:35 UTC

libertarianism is small government, more freedom and capitalism

2017-07-06 17:36:46 UTC

Not even necessarily capitalism.

2017-07-06 17:36:51 UTC

no, libertarianism is capitalism with small state

2017-07-06 17:36:51 UTC

e have big government right now

2017-07-06 17:36:53 UTC

The state is an apparatus of a ruling class.

2017-07-06 17:37:03 UTC

Right now it is yes

2017-07-06 17:37:21 UTC

In Ancient Rome, the senate was filled with the Patricians.

2017-07-06 17:37:40 UTC

bet they'd buy all sorts of goodies with the government there

2017-07-06 17:37:47 UTC

saying that libertarianism wants "more capitlism" (whateer that means) is ill-argued

2017-07-06 17:37:52 UTC

they just want capitslism with less state

2017-07-06 17:38:00 UTC

Which is a freer capitalism

2017-07-06 17:38:03 UTC

excuse my spelling

2017-07-06 17:38:05 UTC

@Sampuka what's your tendency

2017-07-06 17:38:08 UTC

You can call it more or free, whatever

2017-07-06 17:38:15 UTC

@Seedle don't align strongly with any

2017-07-06 17:38:21 UTC

same

2017-07-06 17:38:24 UTC

Government hinders capitalism, that's my issue

2017-07-06 17:38:30 UTC

it's all capitalism, you cannot have degrees of capitalism

2017-07-06 17:38:35 UTC

yes you can

2017-07-06 17:38:35 UTC

I just say communist with american characteristics for the maymays

2017-07-06 17:38:47 UTC

then I'd very much like to hear your definition

2017-07-06 17:39:11 UTC

When the government puts demands on free companies they decrease their freedom to operate how they want (within the law)

2017-07-06 17:39:29 UTC

yes

2017-07-06 17:39:34 UTC

because without those regulations

2017-07-06 17:39:38 UTC

people would be fucked

2017-07-06 17:39:46 UTC

it's a third party like i said

2017-07-06 17:39:52 UTC

When a government privatizes a company you'd say the country got more capitalistic right

2017-07-06 17:39:54 UTC

but related strongly with the ruling capitalist class

2017-07-06 17:40:03 UTC

mine goes something like: Capitalism is a mode of production where the means of production are privately owned. The owner hires people to work in said means of production in order to gain profits"

2017-07-06 17:40:19 UTC

That is true and what we have now

2017-07-06 17:40:31 UTC

in order to gain capital* I.E. money for the sake of making more money

2017-07-06 17:40:39 UTC

Howver the governments adds all sorts of blockades on those companies (mostly smaller ones)

2017-07-06 17:41:11 UTC

the governemt is a part of the mode of production, in fact it is what defends and upholds the mode of production

2017-07-06 17:41:14 UTC

They've been doing it more and more, government hardly ever gets smaller, now we have big govermment

2017-07-06 17:41:21 UTC

saying the state is not a part of capitalism is pretty dumb

2017-07-06 17:41:26 UTC

lol no

2017-07-06 17:41:31 UTC

that's a big part of the anarchist argument anyway

2017-07-06 17:41:34 UTC

You can't start a new government

2017-07-06 17:41:39 UTC

You can start a new business

2017-07-06 17:41:45 UTC

The government is a different animal

2017-07-06 17:41:53 UTC

entropeneurship is not capitalism

2017-07-06 17:42:00 UTC

Yes it is

2017-07-06 17:42:05 UTC

it's very often a part of capitlism

2017-07-06 17:42:09 UTC

at least in the first world

2017-07-06 17:42:15 UTC

more so than in any other system yes

2017-07-06 17:42:19 UTC

You can start a new government.

2017-07-06 17:42:25 UTC

yes, but htat doesn't make something capitalism

2017-07-06 17:42:39 UTC

more freedom for your business is more capitalistic

2017-07-06 17:42:46 UTC

there's entrepeneurship in mutualism too

2017-07-06 17:42:52 UTC

but that's not capitalism

2017-07-06 17:42:56 UTC

market socialism too

2017-07-06 17:42:59 UTC

You can easily make a new government if you have the support and resources.

2017-07-06 17:43:14 UTC

Which would probably be followed by a civil war with the current government

2017-07-06 17:43:20 UTC

no you can't, not unless some other country sells you a part of their land completely

2017-07-06 17:43:24 UTC

which they never will

2017-07-06 17:43:24 UTC

@Timo))) please define capitalism for us, honestly

2017-07-06 17:43:44 UTC

"freedom"

2017-07-06 17:43:45 UTC

@Timo))) land is just whoever has power, you can fight the government

2017-07-06 17:43:52 UTC

Freedom for the capitalist and not the people lol

2017-07-06 17:44:01 UTC

though you'd probably lose since there's a reason it's the government

2017-07-06 17:44:42 UTC

not that hard, the freedom to persue capital in whatever way you want, as long as it complies with the law, lower taxes and less regulations have a positive effect on it

2017-07-06 17:44:43 UTC

maybe the word state would be better

2017-07-06 17:45:02 UTC

how do you define capital?

2017-07-06 17:45:06 UTC

hoarded resources?

2017-07-06 17:45:06 UTC

The people can become capitalists in a capitalist society

2017-07-06 17:45:18 UTC

If you call it hoarded sources sure

2017-07-06 17:45:42 UTC

I'm going in 5, too much on discord

2017-07-06 17:45:46 UTC

well, then what's the major difference from other modes of production like feudalism?

2017-07-06 17:45:52 UTC

this is very clear in my definition

2017-07-06 17:46:10 UTC

yeh I'll be leaving soon too hopefully

2017-07-06 17:46:15 UTC

There the state has the resources, they can change the law to suit them, a company in capitalism cannot make those laws

2017-07-06 17:46:33 UTC

in feudalism the state doesn't have the resources, local feudal lords does

2017-07-06 17:46:44 UTC

protected by the state

2017-07-06 17:46:49 UTC

same in capitalism

2017-07-06 17:46:55 UTC

not to the same extent

2017-07-06 17:46:58 UTC

companies which have capital is protected y the state

2017-07-06 17:47:30 UTC

And those companies could be replaced by newer companies if it was easier to start new companies

2017-07-06 17:47:49 UTC

But the current system stands in the way with ridiculous regulations

2017-07-06 17:48:04 UTC

I mean protected as in litterally protected

2017-07-06 17:48:13 UTC

If I try to take the capital the police comes

2017-07-06 17:48:43 UTC

I'll read that

2017-07-06 17:49:02 UTC

It's related.

2017-07-06 17:49:15 UTC

I'm glad you wanted to be civil rather than some autistic memer.

2017-07-06 17:49:27 UTC

I respect it.

2017-07-06 17:49:28 UTC

honestly I've found a good amount of civil open people here

2017-07-06 17:49:37 UTC

Yeah those are no good, I don't talk to communists/socialists often, pretty fun

2017-07-06 17:49:38 UTC

relatively good amount anyways

2017-07-06 17:49:52 UTC

better than an echo chamber I sometimes go into\

2017-07-06 17:50:18 UTC

also one thing I'm still wondering about is how non-autist people find this server

2017-07-06 17:50:44 UTC

Found it on /pol/, talked about leftypol in the thread, this discord was mentiones

2017-07-06 17:50:50 UTC

When I was a libertarian/liberal, I used to always argue with this one anarcho-syndicalist (trade unionist) a lot, and it was always a completely different point of view I had never really heard before. So I can relate.

2017-07-06 17:50:53 UTC

Don't worry I don't agree with /pol/ often at all

2017-07-06 17:51:25 UTC

don't worry, also I had figures out that /pol/ shared this discord a lot

2017-07-06 17:51:32 UTC

many retarded raids come here

2017-07-06 17:51:41 UTC

the shit part of /pol/

2017-07-06 17:51:44 UTC

they leave fast though, that's a plus

2017-07-06 17:51:47 UTC

yeh

2017-07-06 17:51:52 UTC

attention span of a fly

2017-07-06 17:51:53 UTC

because there's not really anyone to raid

2017-07-06 17:52:11 UTC

this server is basically dead apart from occasional discussions like this one

2017-07-06 17:52:26 UTC

noone knows who the admin is

2017-07-06 17:52:35 UTC

George Soros of course

2017-07-06 17:52:44 UTC

I do like his shill-bux

2017-07-06 17:52:50 UTC

good money tbh

2017-07-06 17:52:53 UTC

anyways I'm out

2017-07-06 17:52:56 UTC

take care

2017-07-06 17:52:56 UTC

later

2017-07-06 17:53:16 UTC

the american left should start hosting debates

2017-07-06 17:53:32 UTC

so we can just publicly humiliate people on live TV and get shit tons of support

2017-07-06 17:53:39 UTC

won't work

2017-07-06 17:53:47 UTC

who's gonna host a leftist?

2017-07-06 17:54:02 UTC

also I don't think any debate will go well

2017-07-06 17:54:09 UTC

public debates or just too often shit

2017-07-06 17:54:21 UTC

they get a lot of attention

2017-07-06 17:54:27 UTC

especially when it's a subject with so many different definitions

2017-07-06 17:54:36 UTC

and if you have the right speaker, and you know who your target audience is

2017-07-06 17:54:38 UTC

you'll do great

2017-07-06 17:54:42 UTC

good recruitment tool

2017-07-06 17:54:54 UTC

yeah, I guess you could probably find a good debater

2017-07-06 17:55:20 UTC

Well yeah, avoiding a semantics debate is probably a good idea

2017-07-06 17:55:28 UTC

but you make it about "current" issues

2017-07-06 17:55:31 UTC

Neoliberalism

2017-07-06 17:55:34 UTC

immigration

2017-07-06 17:55:37 UTC

minority rights

2017-07-06 17:55:38 UTC

etc

2017-07-06 17:55:42 UTC

sad thing is it almost always goes to semantics because people define so many things different

2017-07-06 17:55:52 UTC

on internet debates

2017-07-06 17:55:54 UTC

but tbh

2017-07-06 17:55:57 UTC

look at jimmy dore

2017-07-06 17:56:09 UTC

he's not a debater, but he's left-pilling tons of liberals

2017-07-06 17:56:16 UTC

if you find the right host or debate-opponent, then a debate could be really good probably

2017-07-06 17:56:37 UTC

did you see joe rogan when he had milo on his program?

2017-07-06 17:56:47 UTC

milo got fucked

2017-07-06 17:56:50 UTC

joe isnt a leftist

2017-07-06 17:56:52 UTC

but still

2017-07-06 17:58:01 UTC

iirc noam chomsky also rekt a lot of people

2017-07-06 17:59:24 UTC

i havent heard any of them

2017-07-06 17:59:40 UTC

but id say hes a relic of the old left

2017-07-06 17:59:45 UTC

I'm gonna listen to noam vs alex jones now

2017-07-06 17:59:49 UTC

it's gonna be shit probably

2017-07-06 18:00:12 UTC

if you want an interesting one

2017-07-06 18:00:19 UTC

look up immortal technique and alex jones

2017-07-06 18:00:42 UTC

immortal technique?

2017-07-06 18:01:42 UTC

immortal technique is a rapper

2017-07-06 18:01:50 UTC

revolutionary socialist

2017-07-06 18:01:53 UTC

great public speaker

2017-07-06 18:02:02 UTC

I wish he would do more of it actually

2017-07-06 18:02:10 UTC

Lol

2017-07-06 18:02:16 UTC

he's got a charismatic appeal.

2017-07-06 18:40:17 UTC

lol so many debates are leftist focused are you kidding me ?

2017-07-06 18:40:48 UTC

i dont remember any college getting shut down over a leftie

2017-07-06 18:40:57 UTC

i hate that faggot milo too tho

2017-07-06 19:09:39 UTC

lewd

2017-07-06 19:10:34 UTC

tbh not sure what mouse castration has to do with marxism. can someone fill me in? am i missing something?

2017-07-06 19:12:48 UTC

I'm pretty sure it is right wing.

2017-07-06 19:13:36 UTC

breaking news: alt-right officially supports slicing the weiners off of rodents.

2017-07-06 19:13:42 UTC

Left wing is incapable of doing such a thing.

2017-07-06 19:14:04 UTC

Left wing closes his eyes when there is a fight in hist favorite anime.

2017-07-06 19:14:13 UTC

Not sure about castrating rodents.

2017-07-06 19:14:23 UTC

Seems very right wing to me.

2017-07-06 19:14:31 UTC

idk man, tankies are technically left wing

2017-07-06 19:14:36 UTC

tankies scare me a lil bit

2017-07-06 19:15:07 UTC

I'm Marxist-Leninist. There is nothing to fear, lad.

2017-07-06 19:15:46 UTC

i mean i'm a dirty libertarian socialist

2017-07-06 19:15:53 UTC

im new to the whole leftism game btw

2017-07-06 19:16:01 UTC

Pro market?

2017-07-06 19:16:15 UTC

seeing as how capitalism is a shit, not really
