@DemigodoftheSea - Hahahahaha. So, Americans are wanting social ownership of the means of production? What have you been smoking? Americans want universal healthcare, not socialism. You are so detached dude, it is scary how fanatical people can get when spoon fed the right ideology?

@DemigodoftheSea - Hahahahahs. Thr majority of not a single demographic wants socialism. Our young people are just dumb, and they conflate government programs with socialism. And as they age and grow smarter, this association always drops off. It is truly mind boggling that you think some socialist revolution is on the way. Not a single politician is advocating for it. The most extreme is Bernie, and he isn't saying to overthrow capitalism. You are off your rocker mate.
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Hahaha. Good luck buddy, I am sure your socialist revolution is coming any day now. Any day...
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Lol, any day now bud. You think by the end of the decade? Maybe in 30 years? When are we talking, the revolution has a lot of ground to make up, lol
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Lol, you are full of archaic ideas. Now you are being luddite on top of a socialist, haha. You just can't get enough bad ideas, can you?
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Haha, right, any day now. It's not like your kind hasn't been predicting this same thing forever. Markets adapt, labor adapts. You just desperately want your insane ramblings to be true. Maybe stop doom scrolling reddit and actually wake up kid, it would do you some good. Here is a hint, no serious people think there will be 50% of people without a job in 10 years. Or 20. Maybe you and Andrew Yang can run for president together, lol.

@DemigodoftheSea - hahahahahaha, we turned out enslaved to our employer? Damn bro, I am lower class in the US and I don't feel enslaved at all. Just like when Orwell said that socialists aren't caring about the poor, they are just jealous of those that do better than them. You think your idea, over 100 years old, and idea that has never worked and no one takes seriously, you think it is suddenly going to work because of automation!? Hahaha, you guys are always good for a laugh at least. Any day now comrade, all we have to lose is our chains. I am curious though, what year? I want to short the stock market, so if you could tell me when this collapse is coming, I would greatly appreciate it!
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Why do you think I quoted Orwell? It was because he was a socialist, and even he could see it was primarily driven by jealousy. I can forgive him since socialism was new at the time, and he never praised any of the socialist countries. But to live in this day and age and still endorse socialism? That requires a large amount of ignorance. You keep waiting on this black swan event that won't change anything. Entire industries like textile were destroyed, and yet the labor market adapted. The only thing that is going to happen to AI is that it will be used as a tool and people will invent new jobs. There is literally 0 signs that we will run out of jobs. So, instead of relying on evidence, you rely on speculation, just like socialists were sure they were going to bury capitalism in the 20th century, lol. People like you stay attached to an idea for emotional reasons, and it shows how lacking they are intellectually. Go to any university and talk to the econ department, they will laugh you out of the room. Or are they "brainwashed by capitalism" hahaha

@DemigodoftheSea - Holy crap dude, this is just boring. Ya, socialism is great until it is actually implemented. Oh wait, that means it is terrible, never was great, and is only appealing to jealous, bitter people. We currently have massive labor shortage dum dum, there is no lack of jobs. But like everything with you people, it is always "coming soon" and you are "sure it as around the corner". What don't you get? You are part of a discredited movement, you hang on to unfalsfiable future events. Just like socialists/communists of the past. You people are worse than religious zealots, I swear. Same amount of intelligence. And to top it off, you think the majority of Americans want socialism, when all they want are expanded government programs in a capitalist system. Touche. You are like the gold medalist for bad takes, lol
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Hahahah, I can't anymore. If you are so unrepentingly slow that you think it failed because of outside intervention.... You will grow up some day kid. I am not going to argue with someone who is clearly a teenager and not educated enough to have an informed opinion, it is like picking on the handicapped. Best of luck to you, and make sure to stay in school.
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Could you point me to the nearest scientific paper which shows socialism was only ruined by outside interference? Surely this isn't a very dumb trope trotted out by socialists, so surely you have access to just one reputable article which proves this, right?
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Still waiting on that scientific paper bud!
1
@DemigodoftheSea - No, I want a quantified scientific paper which shows it. Not descriptions of events. Surely if it is true, you can produce that, correct? You know, how modern economists model different variables and analyze them? Or, let me guess, you simply assume that is the reason with exactly 0 proof to back you up. And let me remind you, articles about the US doing this or that is not proof. I know science isn't your strong suit, but I'll walk you through it. You need a paper proving causation or at least strong correlation in a multi variable systemic analysis. Very standard papers for economics. But let me guess, you have no such thing but you are still soooooooo sure. Lol, you are not to be taken seriously dude. I already know your answer wont be able to provide it because it isnt true. It is just socialiats coping, losers.
1
@DemigodoftheSea - No, it isn't scientific dummy. Every heard the saying "the plural of anecdote is not data"? I am a biochemist, so I am very familiar with the scientific evidence, you clearly are not. Linking editorials, historical descriptions, etc... is not evidence for your claim. As always, socialists show their utter inability to grasp simple intellectual concepts. Listen kid, you will learn this stuff once you grow up. You don't have enough knowledge right now to make intelligent opinions, but hopefully that will change as you mature.
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Yes dum dum. Let me explain what "the plural of anecdote isn't data" and basic science for you. The claim "CIA interference is the main reason the Soviet Union fell" is not the same as showing that the CIA interfered. The former causally links foreign interference as the main reason the USSR fell, the latter just shows they interfered. See the difference? Proof of meddling is NOT proof that the meddling is the main reason they fell. I didn't think I would need to explain something so simple to you, but you are a socialist, so I don't know why I expected anything more. Kid, you aren't the smartest, sorry. You don't know basic things about science, what proof is, etc... You need to mature before you can even begin to grasp this concept. You are just full of reddit cliches that you repeat like a good sheep, but that doesn't mean you understand anything, which is clearly evident from your confusion here. It would be like saying "I think pop causes cancer. My proof? Pop exists and people with cancer exist" That is how juvenile the whole thing sounds. Do you still not understand or do I need to hold your hand some more? Not sure I can simplify it much further for you.
1
@DemigodoftheSea - Your claim was that socialism would have worked if it wasn't for American interference. You have shown exactly 0 proof of this. So, do you have the proof or not? Stop wasting my time, you are annoying and I don't feel like arguing with a child.
1
@DemigodoftheSea - hahahaha. Now you are trying to deflect by saying I was talking about the wrong thing? You don't have evidence for ANY OF IT. You don't even understand what evidence is! Just go away kid, this is annoying now. I get it, you're a socialist and you're very sure of yourself. Good for you, bye.

Ya, because socialism was famous for being efficient with resources and never wasting anything.... Capitalism is 1000x more efficient than socialism precisely because people are motivated by their own self interest, which always trends towards more efficient production in order to maximize personal profit. Played out over a lifetime, you see the stark differences in quality of life of the USSR in 1986 compared to the US. Socialism is a dead end, it gets things wrong on the most basic level. It will never be resurrected, and it is not relevant for 99% of humans. Except the poor souls in countries like North Korea or Cuba who still have to suffer under it. But I am sure communists have 1001 reasons why it isn't actually the fault of the only common factor among failed socialist states.

@fl00fydragon - OH boy, you guys are always so fun to talk to. Clinging to a long dead ideology, not realizing just how sad it is. It does not matter what type of socialism you support, because socialists are famous for saying "next time it will work comrades!" The empirical data is blindingly obvious, socialism does not work period. Now, you can cling on to the absurdly unlikely possibility that this iteration will work, but the world has moved on. Furthermore, you can be as socialist as you want in a capitalist society. Start a company, then give Bob the janitor equal pay as the CEO and an equal vote in the board. Literally no one is stopping you. This is just another reason capitalism is vastly superior, it gives you the freedom to conduct business as you see fit instead of forcing everyone to use one model. No big surprise that people have tried this, but they usually cannot compete well enough to make it big or do anything beyond a small coop. Now, the rest of your predictions are more socialist cliches. Did you know that you are using the "shrinking market" critique of capitalism that Hitler used in justifying a new economic order? It is just as wrong now as it was then. Capitalism isn't about commodities only, as so many socialists seem to think. Growth just means more market share. It can come from and often does come from using less materials and being more efficient. Your market socialism just sounds like businesses being comprised of people who get the same pay and an equal vote in everything. Great, if you like that model, use it in a capitalist country. But no one is on board with "market socialism" being imposed on the population. Your ideology doesn't even have a reason to exist unless you plan on forcing other people to submit to your economic model. Otherwise, you would just start businesses with this model now. Listen, I am sure you have good intentions. I know at first glance, socialism sounds great to a lot of young people. Most people grow out of that phase, realizing that how it sounds doesn't reflect on how it actually is. I hope you come to that point soon, most do.

@williamdavidpitt9938 - Those sound like entirely unimportant things. This video gets right pretty much all the overarching beliefs and systems that communists wanted/used. Socialists and communists are just mad because it includes all the negative things, which is pretty much everything with communism. Socialists cannot stand when people look at the application of their ideas, they want them to remain abstract and unfalsifiable so that they can claim their ideas will surely work the next time. Just give it up, hardly any serious adult thinks socialism is a good thing. Just a fringe lunatic fringe.
1
@williamdavidpitt9938 - Let me guess, Paul never says anything overtly negative about socialism and communism?
1
@williamdavidpitt9938 - Marxism is NOT science, at all. Science makes testable predictions which can be used to model and predict results. That is how scientists alter their theories to match with the empirical evidence. Marxists have refused the mountain of empirical evidence which shows their "idea" is nothing more than a poorly thought out, emotional lashing out at the rich.
1
@williamdavidpitt9938 - Marxism has failed in literally every endeavor it has set out for. It ignores the massive complexity of economics, so no surprise that Marx wrote unscientific papers which simplified issues to such a degree his analysis was worthless. If anyone claims to be a scientist or someone who upholds science, then they must be someone who looks at the empirical data. Socialists/communists abhor the actual scientific method. They want to keep is abstract so no one can falsify their claims.
1
@sterlingm1140 - No, that is the left. The right isn't trying to censor everything and ram nonsensical theories down everyone's throat. Everyone knows the right is religious and irrational in ways, but leftists try to act like they are rational and backed by science. They aren't, by a long stretch

Man, why would you voluntarily listen to Steve Bannon?
1
@jsharp3165 - Ya, I was being a bit facetious. It is always good to broaden your horizons, I just haven't heard anything good about him.
1
@jsharp3165 - Really? He always came across as rather pedestrian to me, and I assumed he had to be since he associated with Trump.
1
@MiserableMuon - Right. So, the great leap forward was Western imperialism? How about the cultural revolution? How about when the commie students went around killing people with wrongthink?
1
@MiserableMuon - Communism/Chinese CCP caused many problems, it wasn't the fault of the West.
1
@MiserableMuon - Jesus, I can already tell what kind of zealot you are. There is no chance for a mature and informative discussion with you. Good luck, I'm sure your socialism is around the corner.
1
Probably because they fully bought into it because of their desperate situation.

Yep, you are correct. Russia suddenly started a flurry of diplomatic demands, but it did so in a hurried and half hearted way. People were saying at the time that Russia was just developing a pretext for their invasion, and that none of the diplomacy was real. Russia is always lying, you can never trust what they say.
1
@litesp - Weird, only Russians call it a US backed coup. It was a country turning towards the EU because they hated Russian influence with their terrible economy. And the Eastern regions tried to declare independence, usually shelling follows that genius. Stop repeating propaganda and brain dead talking points, grow up
1
@edwardbateman3094 - Which is why communism is always authoritarian. It requires the state to crush people who do not want to participate. People can be as socialist as they like in a capitalist country, no one is stopping them from starting businessss and giving the janitor an equal vote and equal pay. But in socialist countries, you cannot be a capitalist. Everyone is forced into the rigid model. Honestly, it is a dead idea. It is never coming back. So many people waste their time debating it when it is completely irrelevant.
1
@canilernproto3018 - It is extremely divisive. Either you are a black person who stands to benefit, or you are a white liberal who has been indoctrinated that it is "good". So which one are you?
1
@canilernproto3018 - Oh wow, your type resorting to calling someone racist because your ideas cannot stand up to the slightest intellectual scrutiny, such a shock. It's funny, when someone is in a cult, everyone knows it except the people in the cult. Cult like ideologies such as Nazism and communism flourish on the same principle. You are in a modern equivalent. Anyone who questions the integrity of your ideology is labeled a racist, bigot, etc... it is just a way to deflect from the many, many deficiencies inherit in your ideas. That is why your ranks are filled with young people, they are more amenable to brainwashing and a tribal mentality. Hopefully you grow out of it, or you might end up a bitter, unsuccessful person who blames the man for all his problems. Either way, I don't care, you have had nothing of value to add here.
