  1. ​ @buddyluv584  And it was the UK that handed over Czechoslovakia at Munich.

  2. Yet it's said by an arch capitalist working for the likes of the eugenisist Bill Gates.

  3. ​ @christinerussell113 That's strange because the Chinese seem to be doing just fineright now. In fact, they're running rings around the self-proclaimed leader of the 'free' world. And under communism both Russia and China were turned from undeveloped feudal backwaters to powerful and fully developed superpowers within two generations, so much so that the USA had to waste both blood and treasure in trying to do everything in its power to destroy, as a certain Noam Chomsky put it, the threat of a good example. So much so that they bankrupted themselves in the 1960's to stop the growth of what is condescendingly referred to as the 'Global South'.

  4. ​​​​​ @mayowankenobi  How can you say that‽ Private property is the bedrock of the economic system known as capitalism, in this case other people's (Native American's) property. Like the Enclosure Acts in England, the Highland Cleareances in Scotland and the absentee landlordism of Ireland, capitalism promotes and sanctifies the privatisation and monopolisation of all resources necessary for human survival by a select few at the expense of everyone else. It deliberately creates artificial scarcity to push up prices, in so doing creating a desert where there was once an oasis. There's enough food to feed the world several times over. Ditto housing. And yet hundreds of millions die of starvation or go hungry and without shelter because of... capitalism.

  5. I'm sure a black man born in Haiti during the same period would, a fortiori, say the same about capitalism.
