I don't know what I clicked on that. It was exactly what it says.

EchoCT ,

99%? Are you sure?

EchoCT ,

How many civilians have the Zionists murdered in the last 8 months alone?

EchoCT ,

Dialectical Materialism. Right now, they are. You either work towards communism or capitalism moves towards consolidation of capital. Those are your choices.

EchoCT ,

Not going to downvote, but I do think you're lacking quite a bit of insight into the reasons human society exists at all. Cooperation is the reason human society exists at all, so saying we're inheritly selfish is kinda laughable in that context.

I would encourage you to look up information on dialectical Materialism and the necessity of capitalism as a stage in that dialectical.

Capitalism had a purpose, and it's past time for us to move on.

EchoCT ,

Those famines happened every 10 years before communism, they happened ONCE during in each location and not again since.

In the meantime capitalism had that death total due to forced starvation every 7 years on average.

EchoCT ,

Look up dialectical Materialism. China is 'communist' as they are progressing along the roadmap Dialectical Materialism provides towards achieving communism.

EchoCT ,

Read 'State and Revolution' by Lenin. It's quite short and not that bad a read. Addresses exactly what you are talking about.

EchoCT ,

Well. Stop using strawmen. Communism is defined by progress through dialectical Materialism. Has any nation finished that progression?

EchoCT ,

Neither the USSR or China fulfilled Dialectical Materialism yet either. That's a prerequisite for the ideals of communism.

EchoCT ,

No. Moving goalposts means there is no definitive measure of completion. Communism has one. If you've read anything at all about it, you would know that. But hey you were told it was bad in school, and thinking for yourself is difficult. You do you.

EchoCT ,

Slaves are e human capital. So by definition weren't plantations capitalist?

EchoCT ,

I'd also be ok with a firesale of his assets.

EchoCT ,

I mean most of the Nazi middle leadership just became NATO/Western Germany leadership. But they said they're sorry so it was OK.

EchoCT ,

So outraged that he's sending more bombers and munitions! Seriously, fuck this country.

How can I help our comrades in Gaza fight this?

EchoCT ,

Good choice. I love baduk/go. I suck at it, but I love it nonetheless.

EchoCT ,

If you were a socialist you'd know what dialectical materialism is and not say something like "Marxist economy".

EchoCT ,

That's why I don't mind mtg arena online. The starter decks are a good building block to add and remove cards without feeling like you need to spend a lot of money. Then as you play and learn more you get tokens to turn into other cards you want.

EchoCT ,

In the example regarding the brokers look at whos labor they're profiteering from it's not their own.

EchoCT ,

Moving fake numbers representative of labor is not in itself labor. It's extraction of labor value from someone who actually provided something useful to society.

EchoCT ,

Except there isn't. we tried that then the capitalists bought the weaker willed politicians and used them to undermine any regulation. Capitalism is a cancer and must be excised as such.

EchoCT ,

Theres is a lot of nuance to that argument. Even Marx agreed that a capital stage is a necessary step on the way to communism. That's the whole dialect part of dialect materialism. Each step of the ladder has to be walked through and past as it becomes obsolete.
