turn to a capitalist economic system

like china did

2018-09-07 13:49:13 UTC  

Sir.... "please then give me an example of a wealthy communist nation" is like saying "please give an example of a normal healthy person with progeria, living a life completely unaffected by their condition"

Communism has always failed. They might blame capitalism but you can't un-do inflation and mass murderers, people flee-ing the country and pretty much needing a dictator and armed people at borders, aiming guns one way to even try and keep the system alive.

Wanna hear a joke?
REPUBLICANISM.
Democracy and capitalism brings greed.
While communism takes from the rich and gives to the poor.
Everyone gets the same.

this is what we're up against

dumb. fuck.

2018-09-07 13:57:40 UTC  

How does that person stating facts make them retarded?

2018-09-07 13:59:22 UTC  

I find it hilarious how they claim it brings greed. Greed is inherited, it's evolutionary trait. To what extend - it differs. But it's not like others' people greed is stopping you from becoming wealthy yourself. Infact, becoming richer is easier now than it ever was (fact) and has risen more people out of poverty than ever.

2018-09-07 14:00:44 UTC  

Uhm. Wot?

2018-09-07 14:01:10 UTC  

Which part is confusing

2018-09-07 14:01:29 UTC  

That beginning part. You obviously have now idea what greed is.

2018-09-07 14:01:44 UTC  

intense and selfish desire for something, especially wealth, power, or food.

2018-09-07 14:02:04 UTC  

Do you think selfish and intense desire was not there? It has always been there, it is what has increased the fitness of particular species.

2018-09-07 14:03:18 UTC  

Ok, lets pretend you already knew that. Now think of the contexts of communism and capitalism until you make the connection. Don't type 'til you find the connection if you wanna look really smart.

2018-09-07 14:03:41 UTC  

....What.

mate what?

really?

2018-09-07 14:04:56 UTC  

You really need help with this?

2018-09-07 14:04:58 UTC  

What would it mean in the context of communism? Communism despices greed but that's like ignoring human nature.

exactly

2018-09-07 14:05:07 UTC  

Exactly

2018-09-07 14:05:34 UTC  

So saying capitalism brings greed is wrong. It is there to begin with.

2018-09-07 14:05:41 UTC  

No

2018-09-07 14:05:50 UTC  

***context***

2018-09-07 14:06:01 UTC  

More greed? Sure. But brings greed? No, it was already there.

2018-09-07 14:06:14 UTC  

Communism literally ignores human nature

2018-09-07 14:06:17 UTC  

Excuse me

2018-09-07 14:06:47 UTC  

I literally said ***context***. Do I need to teach you about logic?

2018-09-07 14:07:05 UTC  

You haven't explained anything so I see zero reasoning in your statements.

2018-09-07 14:07:14 UTC  

?

2018-09-07 14:07:16 UTC  

and dont be smuggy with me, not my fault you fail to explain yourself.

2018-09-07 14:08:06 UTC  

I didn't claim to explain anything and I'm not being smug. I literally gave you context and asked you to think

2018-09-07 14:08:21 UTC  

"how they claim it brings greed. Greed is inherited, it's evolutionary trait" Tell me what's wrong here.

2018-09-07 14:08:31 UTC  

Saying CONTEXT will not make it be false
