Capitalism does not lift others from poverty

and that is utterly laughable

I was hoping you would make even one argument about moral or actual positions

but even on this point

I have however seen the figures for how many have starved, either intentionally or accidentally, under them, or the large numbers sent to reeducation camps that are often never released and just disappear.

This is pretty simple

I'm not even a communist but here we go

What caused this? Communism?

so first of all on the poverty point, the world poverty line is decreased every few years or lesls

*less

you can go ahead and look it up

they literally change the poverty line slightly lower by a few cents creating the illusion of more out of poverty

So your arguement is that poverty rates haven't been changing.

They didn't change it here. They literally defined it in the graph as less than 1.90$ a day

Lets go delve into this source then

WE WAS EXTREMELY IMPOVRISHED N SHIET

also even STILL

Capitalism enforces a permanent amount to be in poverty

I mean fuck. I guess South Korea is still a shithole huh?

@EnderOctanus Yes.

no point in history has a capitalist state had a unemployment rate below 1%

without the economy soon collapsing

Fascism best ism

^

Yeah ofc, but there are plenty of people who aren't in extreme poverty that are unemployed

(about unemployment)

Also

5k you lied

they in the source itself

No communist economy has lasted long before completely collapsing, or adopting some measure of a free market, either.

And having full employment breeds stagnation as no new startups can be created

say the international poverty line was revised

Octanus

what Communist society was allowed to flourish?

Because the USSR was popularly supported

there was literally a referendum in 1991

a few months before its dissolution

What society was "allowed" to fluorish?

over 70% of the population supported it

The USA isn't embargoed by over half of the world
