yeah cause in real life everyone starts off with the same stats... nobody gets rich parents or drug addict parents

nope doesnt happen

just ignore everyone has a chance

you can all be millionaires just keep working at mcdonalds

It doesn’t matter what stats you start with

Yes it does

how dense can you be

If you are a high level player but don’t constantly maintain your status, new players can overtake you

And over time, the game gets easier and easier for newer players to catch up

Good for you, that has no bearing on discussing the issue

Can you imagine an online RPG using communist ideas?

Where you have no money, no class and no guilds?

@Frosty the article says 770k $ is the threshohold.. do you think those 30 million people at or below the poverty line have that much money?

This is a perfect analogy

You can create the conditions of communism within an MMORPG

It just will never work

@Geamr lol 33,000 is

"The threshold is significantly higher if you look at the top percentile by wealth instead of income. To reach that status, you’d have to possess $770,000 in net worth"

Nobody will want to play that game

minimum wage in the US gives you about 15k

a year

I’m talking about income

and because you cant think of a way to make an engaging game with a communist theme that means communism is impractical? bulletproof logic karl marx just went red in his grave from shame

This is exactly what commies know would happen

Mmmmmm yummm

the masses get poor and the few rich people get richer

That’s good

You can live on a dollar a day in America

only for the rich ones

No

Yes

For the poor too

Inb4 trickle down bullshit

yeah man thats definitely it people are just not trying anymore

because they collectively lost any ambition

Trickle down is a word made up by the left you know this right

very likely

It's an accurate metaphor for conservative fiscal policy

Nope

that just serves to enhance the wealth of rich people and leaves the masses destitute
