I'd agree that laissez faire is not reasonably possible
most notably because regulations on safety and polution
What I meant is the free market model. Outside of that I don't find arguing about definitions to be particularly productive... but I also don't think that using a definition that encompasses everything outside of some autistic commie wet dream to be particularly practical. ;p Putting aside the fact that we disagree about what should be regulated (and that is a given taking the into account some booming facts ;p) I think that the reason why a free market can't exist in practice is the same reason why communism can't exist in practice and that is the so called human nature. We are too tribal to be able to live as individuals alone and too individualistic to be treated like automatons.

I think they may be referring to how Marx coined the term Capitalism?
even then id say Adam Smith was the founder
Marx coined the term, but he didn't create the system he called capitalism
imagine thinking that Marx created a system just to destroy it
Pretty Chad move right there
God-Marx, who creates economic systems only so that he could urge the masses to destroy them
Hey guys <#508381442942959616>
*ah*
Marx and all the other commie revolutionaries were a bunch of of subversive kikes. fuck em and their shit system.
If you genuinely believe in Marxism or Communism you are fooling yourself
Peak argument I must say. I have entered the halls of the sages.
The system doesn't work
Its that simple
It fails and causes suffering where ever it is implemented
uh, no
it did work
Barely
The French communes?
Revolutionary Catalonia?
These "states" barely sustained themselves and only existed because nobody bother to enforce the law there.
And we're swept like flies as soon as their former non communist governments decided to take the land back.
I don't see how they're appealing
no I mean the USSR did work, it didn't crumble or anything
during 1950s, 1960s or 1970s
it did function
as the system was ultimately reworked to oblivion, it eventually began to dysfunction, because the way it had been reformed to operate no longer matched the model that it had been set up with
Brezhnev and the Kosygin gang started this trend, and Gorbachev completed it
The ussr killed too many people
It failed
It couldnt afford to maintain itself
If you ask me we should have gone through Operation unthinkable
Rearm Germany and wipe out the fucking commies for good
A cancer that continues to fester and gather support despite it being the cause of death for millions of innocents.
fuck there are parts of East Germany that are still decades behind West Germany
Gorbachev failed it hardcore, it was his reforms that really drove it to the ground
something had to change yes, the way the Brezhnev admin went about the politics wasn't very wise or dynamic imo, and Khrushchev admin I think had the better overall idea, but it wasn't really until the 1980s that the situation became grave. Brezhnev shares in this guilt though
