Also the main reason "The West" is as prosperous is due to Colonization and Exploitation of the Third World
I agree that capitalism can gain from exploitation of third world countries, but I would argue that its the private competition that provides to motivation to create something new, private companies build off their competition modifying what they've done trying to make it better. Additionally I dont think a capitalist economy is inherently imperialist. You could even argue that some countries such as the Latin American ones would've have gotten as far as they did if it werent for capitalism and western influence. Looking at other historical examples such as Korea and Germany also show the comparison of each system. And communist nations also have there fair share of exploitation. In Eastern Europe with stalin promising "free elections" to the United States when really just using salami tactics to instill soviet control and take advantage of its resources. The Soviet Union tried exploiting Afghanistan as well.
Communism bad America good
Who’s moderating this discord?
me
What's up?
No i am the mod
DAE wish we had more dog whistles so we could find each other without revealing our power level?
ahh
Just talk about workers rights uwu
did ulp split again or is this something else
I was randomly invited here by some guy in an IWW server
same, I think I've been here before though
yeah i have
We split from unofficial leftypol 4 splits before. We split from original leftypol which died. Now it was recovered and destroyed 3 times already
hmm
yeah i remember this place
Fuggin Trotskyists.
it's the only split that's alive, other than the local inn
We're also the only one that is against splitters and for unification of all leftypols
In fact we're for mutual support https://twitter.com/leftypol_int
Hot take: mailing lists are underrated as an organization tool and social media platform.
What is going on
The something internationale was the big split one, it changed servers for some reason, and renamed itself 12 times, until it settled on The Local Inn <:GWaobloChildPepeShrug:407618817569718272>
Is of the third split
They've been against unification
eh
Just some kids playing
as I see it
i think they've just forgot, its just a casual philosophy discussion hole now
I'm probably still banned there
for the attempt to recover users
from the split
I have nothing against having smaller, niche, affinity-group-esque servers, but that's not what you mean is it?
I personally blame Snow for giving away power to losers
it's basically a affinity group of gay sounds shitposting and philosophy
Send us invite in this chat pls
But you offered me a mod position without knowing anything about me first, didn't you? 🤔
