but to say that African nations are all dogshit because "lol black people" is ignorant of historical events

African nations are dog shit and it is not because of the white man.

Whatever other reasons there are, it can't be blamed on white people. Some of them have been free for over a century. Ethiopia has never been a colony to my knowledge.

Ethiopia was taken over by IIRC the Portuguese in one of the bloodiest African wars for independence of the 20th century

they suffered massively, women and children were burned by the europeans because they wanted them as a colony

Invaded by Italy in WW2

It was almost as bad as the Belgian Congo

Someone's been to African History class

I studied this like 5 years ago

Sadly you actually believe everything you're told

So have I.

I had to take the same shit in college too

I studied this stuff independently because I was interested in it

I studied it in college and independently

the only college course I took on Africa was a developing nations economics class and it was slanted as hell against socialism

Only I chose not to believe everything I read

Careful, your red is showing

sure it's not the blood in your eyes

Dear lord. Socialism=/=Communism.

Extreme Capitalism is just as retarded as communism.

One oppresses the poor with monopolies, the other with the government.

Damn Yangsgang have infiltrated most meme pages in fb

@Iakovos Socialism is the first steps a country needs to do, to become a communistic state

*clears throat*

In Marxist theory, socialism is the transitional period between capitalism and communism. It is the economic practice that communist states always attempt to implement, because communism is not as much economics as it is blueprints for a utopian society. Socialism, though it aims for utopia, is meant to still work in society as we know it. It is essentially a tool for equalizing everyone out and making everyone equal to one another through redistribution of wealth. Even though it is not communism, it is similar and heavily related

Socialism, however, did exist long before communism was actually a formal thought by Karl Marx, but that does not somehow justify or legitimize it

he simply took its concept, and applied it to his theory of how communism would supplant capitalism

Likewise, extreme capitalism has not truly existed since the early days of the Industrial Revolution. Crony capitalism, corporatism, etc are forms of capitalism, but do not represent what is traditionally thought of when you say "extreme capitalism". If you mean either of those, then please use those terms instead

Extreme capitalism would be Laissez-faire Capitalism

As little government regulation and restriction as possible

Even though it did use child labor and other things we may say are reprehensible by modern standards, you cannot call extreme capitalism some evil thing, because it made life so much easier than it was prior to its implementation

Medicine, the standard of living, technology, and of course the inevitable rise in making rules to make workers more comfortable all came out of the Industrial Revolution's unregulated brand of capitalism

But most people do not think about that, they're too busy vilifying it cuz children worked in coal mines and lost fingers in textile mills

It's always important to keep in perspective the times

Every capitalism since heavy reform and regulation occurred is a mixed economy that is predominantly capitalist

Now, it may have existed in special instances that I am not aware of, but I am speaking in general terms

You forgot to add that socialism is making people to be depended on the Government 😛

that's the point of the transitional stage

the USSR isn't called the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics for nothing

I meant the capitalism we have today where the government is paying big bucks to corporations to do shady shit, and vice versa.
