But yeah, killing the rich would be better if it was more of a Worker's Militia than a military. If one is needed, only use it for self defense and the well being of our citizens.

2019-02-03 22:35:35 UTC  

Also, seizing their resources would not be that difficult. You try to make it seem impossible.

2019-02-03 22:35:45 UTC  

It's not that hard for a state to seize resources, buddy.

2019-02-03 22:35:55 UTC  

I think you don't understand how modern finance works

2019-02-03 22:36:05 UTC  

You'll get a bunch of big houses

2019-02-03 22:36:07 UTC  

And cars

2019-02-03 22:36:17 UTC  

But you'll not see a penny

2019-02-03 22:36:37 UTC  

Who cares about modern finance? This is not about that.

2019-02-03 22:36:46 UTC  

Leftism is definitely not modern finance.

2019-02-03 22:36:47 UTC  

Just gonna move my mansion overseas

2019-02-03 22:36:50 UTC  

Ok what currency will you use

2019-02-03 22:36:51 UTC  

It will not act in a capitalism mode.

2019-02-03 22:37:14 UTC  

Modern currency will be necessary for a time, but soon we'd move onto labor vouchers.

2019-02-03 22:37:43 UTC  

of course modern currency will be necessary and you'll lose the majority of it

2019-02-03 22:37:57 UTC  

and you'll have as I said a lot of big houses and fancy cars

2019-02-03 22:38:06 UTC  

Not exactly useful

2019-02-03 22:38:07 UTC  

What political ideology do you subscribe to? What are you?

2019-02-03 22:38:28 UTC  

Don't know haven't made up my mind yet but you and I agree on more than you think

2019-02-03 22:38:46 UTC  

Probably.

2019-02-03 22:38:55 UTC  

I just think you're clinging to a historical vision of doing things and you need to modernise

2019-02-03 22:39:01 UTC  

What would you say you agree with? What would be your ideal society?

2019-02-03 22:39:13 UTC  

I don't know my friend

2019-02-03 22:39:20 UTC  

But it would not be a capitalist one

2019-02-03 22:39:29 UTC  

"Modernize" lol. Leftism is all about progress. Progressing past the modern way of doing things.

2019-02-03 22:39:30 UTC  

Since Socialism is about seizing and increasing productive forces, finance isn't immediately useful, especially since after a revolution currencies go to shit

2019-02-03 22:39:42 UTC  

The idea what what is now must necessarily exist forever is corrosive.

2019-02-03 22:39:50 UTC  

Because I think capitalism causes culture deterioration and I dislike that

2019-02-03 22:40:14 UTC  

I think materialism leads to nihilism and I think materialism comes with capitalism

2019-02-03 22:40:31 UTC  

You sound SocDem to me.

2019-02-03 22:40:34 UTC  

I don't think you should say that leftism is all about progress

2019-02-03 22:40:47 UTC  

I'm not a believer in democracies

2019-02-03 22:40:54 UTC  

But it is. Or at least an aspect of it is.

2019-02-03 22:40:57 UTC  

You and Bordiga.

2019-02-03 22:41:08 UTC  

Most of your talking points seem straight from 4chan

2019-02-03 22:41:31 UTC  

Also, no fucking duh Capitalism causes cultural deterioration. How can you have a culture and market? Anything that can be sold *will* be sold.

2019-02-03 22:41:57 UTC  

Most of USA culture comes from Corporations.

2019-02-03 22:42:17 UTC  

If you say that progress is an intrinsic property of something I think that would result in culture deterioration also

2019-02-03 22:42:22 UTC  

Why is a wedding ring a cultural symbol of marriage? Da Beers said so. Why is bacon an eggs a staple of American Breakfast? Fucking Edward Bernays.

2019-02-03 22:42:41 UTC  

USA is capitalist culture that is the culture

2019-02-03 22:42:59 UTC  

Cultures will change no matter what we do. It's just the change shouldn't be synthetic and caused by someone trying to sell you something.

2019-02-03 22:43:05 UTC  

But here in Europe we were not always this way it is because of America that we have become that way
