Now deduct mobile games.

EVERYTHING SHOULD BE FREEEEEEEEEEE

You could easily ignore microtransactions in Odyssey.
You got enough materials and gold by playing the game, and all the paid cosmetic stuff was incredibly garish and you had plenty of choice with what you could get in game

Capitalism works.

This is simply the result of your rampant piracy.

Yes. Micro-transactions are prevalent because people buy them, ultimately. That alone validates their existence. You can't blame a corporation for providing consumers with something that they have proven they are willing to spend money on. Whether this is good or not is irrelevant.

>The combination of numbers 60/70/80/90 are frequently used to describe the private sector's contribution to the Chinese economy: they contribute 60% of China’s GDP, and are responsible for 70% of innovation, 80% of urban employment and provide 90% of new jobs. Private wealth is also responsible for 70% of investment and 90% of exports.

China would continue to be the stagnating shithole it was under Mao if it wasn't for Deng (who got kicked out of the party by mao for being a capitalist) who implemented capitalist reforms.

This is what retarded murricans think Communism is

China is home to 109 corporations listed on the Fortune Global 500 - but only 15% of those are privately owned. China’s SOEs are enormously bulky and therefore lack flexibility when responding to market demands.

Hello again Yea Forums! Almost didn't see you there. How are you feeling today?

Hope you feel well today!

But it's videogames.

Nazis were definitely socialist m8.

communism is an unreachable utopia, and it's only unreachable because of human nature
at it's core communism is about everyone working & producing all they can, putting the results of that work in one big pot, then taking as much as they need.
as the available resources increase, so do human needs, and studies show that this increase in needs is exponential so the more the community makes the more it will need
communism utopias need excess of goods to survive, but that can not be achieved because human nature is to increase needs until demand reaches supply.

Why yes, I did hear, good new, let's hope it adds to the original.

Look stupid brainlet, Mussolini was in the socialist party in italy and there it learned a lot on how he wanted the society to be

Because communists are stupid and lazy but its everyone elses fault for being too successful or forward thinking.

that just goes to show that central planning works better than a free market economy.

Not being in education, employment, or training and still living comfortably is proof you have won life. The only people who have an excuse to not being NEETs are people who played it safe and took STEM and are still working for their fortune, somewhat slowly but surely.

Good, maybe they should get real jobs.

Ideally when everyone works you don't have to work more than 4-5 hours a day.
And robots doing basic things such as cleaning, cooking, gardening and all that are not a big issue under socialism unlike capitalism.
Because they don't steal jobs from humans, they just force humans to study (for free) instead of chopping down trees and cleaning toilets.

That's why they're at the bottom. No one needs to be poor in a capitalist society, just get an education.

>is proof you have won life
hate to burst your rationalisation bubble but it's proof that society has too much surplus wealth that is not being utilised efficiently.
you didn't win anything, you are the afterthought of economics, an over-looked glitch.

Yes, it does.
As much as I hate dlc and microtransactions, the average player doesn't, they are okay with it.

deng xiaoping simply reiterated what marx said; that communism requires prequisites to function (lots of wealth, for a start). Privitisation of industry in China is quite literally a temporary measure because communism doesn't function well when there's no wealth to distribute to begin with. As the framework for communism gets into place in China, they'll clamp back down on Deng's version of Marxism.

I can name 95% of them
and I don't even know if the ero-manga ones even have a name

So communists are the only ones who have ever had to contend with other societies and governments?
No of course not, capitalism had to face off against other economic models and governments but you know what happened? It succeed, the difference between capitalism and communism is that one succeeds regularly while one fails every time.
But just like communism itself, you make excuses, "if we lived in a completely hypothetical fictional scenario that will never exist, it could totally work!".

It clearly works if they keep doing it.

If games were 12 bucks i would definitely buy more of them. Also considering plenty of indies, and smaller studios manage to release games that are both profitable, and don't contain microtransactions and are less than 60$, you can go choke on that corporation cock.

imagine being so obtuse that you resort to implying capitalism collapsed in 2008

it's not capitalism it's corporatism

Friendly reminder that capitalism is a garbage bin term much like feudalism, made up by autistic academics who have to make everything abstract. It has never existed.

Who the fuck cares about MTX as long as it's cosmetic?

While we are in a discussion of Capitalism, reminder IP laws are inherently anti-capitalistic.

Listen, I know you will not believe me and I am wasting my time, but I will still try. Life in a social democracy is fuller, simpler, happier than under full capitalism. I got to experience both, and the difference is night and day.
All the time and energy lost in pursuit of material comfort, the constant fear, tension, and violence of having to coexist with those who have nothing.
Those thing just don't exist in social democracies. You should go and see for yourself, planes are cheap. And life is cheap too, with your american salary it would mean nothing at all.

Meanwhile you can buy a permanent XP boost.
If people need to use exploits to level faster, it means you build your game around gating progression so that people buy your MTX. How people are still falling for it is beyond me.

You're a retarded nigger.

That's such an outdated view of capitalism, are people seriously this fucking retarded? This applies more to communism than capitalism, except there's 3 tiers of working class, the dead, forced labour, and general working class, then there's only 3 classes above that, well off administrators who embezzle resources, the military, and the upper ruling class who are exquisitely wealthy.

Good goyim.

Because obviously it's a slippery slope to pay2win MTX or just removing content to sell as MTX.
It's literally already happened, look at the screenshot from OP. The ONLY excuse for MTX is a f2p game that sells cosmetics so they can actually keep the game going, such as PoE. I can't think of a lot of examples besides PoE where MTX were implemented ethically.

I think the issue is that the majority of Yea Forums consists of mutts who are only capable of thinking in extremes and do not understand what full blown capitalism and communism actually entail.
They do not realize Yuropeen countries are a mixture of different elements taken from these ideoligies (capitalism, socialism, communism and in many cases monarchy as well) and mashed them together.

In a truly socialist state, all of your companies would be state-owned, with production quotas, fixed prices for consumer goods, fixed salaries, etc.

That's what he means with that statement. Denmark may have a high tax burden and robust welfare state. It may even have many state owned companies and stringent labor laws. But at the end of the day you have free enterprise in Denmark. You can negotiate your salary. You can haggle over prices.

Real socialism isn't really a thing in Europe. Or anywhere for that matter.

>dying for israel is bad

Capitalism works except for entertainment because only the lowest common denominator will be happy.

Even the axis would be pretty weak since you can have capitalism without guaranteeing personal freedoms, or the free flow of information, even though when most people talk about capitalism vs communism these things are typically conflated.

fuck off Goldstein

this but unironically

This user is right. There is no perfect system. Perfect systems exist only in animal kingdoms, because animals are preprogrammed, predictable and incapable of innovation or independent thought. They never break out of the mold. Humans are completely different, they're too complex and ambitious to be forced into some utopian perfect system where everyone is equal. Humans are not equal.

Denmark does not have Socialism you utter mongoloid. We in fact have the EXACT same economic and societal model as America, just tuned differently.
Socialism is the collective ownership of the means of production, that's what the fucking word means.
Denmark is a mixed economy and are very much capitalist, in fact we rank high than America on the Economic Freedom Index, a list created by an american Neocon think-tank that ranks countries based on factors like protection of property rights and openess of the market.

The winners-to-losers ratio is much higher in capitalistic societies. This is why the welfare state has become a fixture of modern capitalism. It's a consolation prize to keep the plebs in check. This is why the first welfare state was set up in Imperial Germany, with its industrial tycoons and rent-seeking nobility. It's also why early socialists opposed the welfare state, seeing it as a dishonest bribe. It's funny how they're now seen as the champions of it.

No?
Xi Jinping has more or less finished installing himself as dictator for life and he is diametrically oppossed to Deng Xiaoping's vision of what China should look like.

Had absolutely nothing to do with piracy. The microtransaction scheme is a method that can potentially bilk people out of far more than $80. Oblivious people think $5 here and $10 there is not much at the time, but eventually they will have spent hundreds. If such a system to make significantly more money exists, game companies (i.e. businesses) have absolutely zero incentive to go with a flat rate system. This would happen whether piracy was occurring or not.

It's too late to turn back the clock now.

If people are pirating your product then you as a producer of whatever content is at fault.
It has been proven time and time again that people will pay for stuff, even when it is free, if they deem the product and creators deserve it.
The people drive the market.

>It has been proven time and time again that people will pay for stuff, even when it is free, if they deem the product and creators deserve it.

It's also been proven that there are people who will pirate regardless, and they are a lot louder than the "try before buy" crowd (and probably more numerous, though that's pure conjecture on my part).

Yes, that's correct.
Socialism = Collective social ownership of the means of capital (Meaning all property that can generate value (Tools, factories, restaurants, etc.))
Any country that has private property rights isn't socialist.

Socialism is not just "The government does stuff"
Stop being memed by Fox News hosts and learn what words mean.
Note: This also applies when the word is used positively. Bernie Sanders is objectively not a Socialist because his platform doesn't include the socialization of capital. What he says is literally irrelevant, he's just as wrong about what the words means as basically everyone else in America.

And in markets where companies are doing well and customers are satisfied, the amount that pirate VS buy rarely effects their revenue in any substantial amount.
When people see a mega corp that doesn't care about customer complaints and does whatever they want, what reason do people have to pay them for the product?
They all deserve to be rob blind if they expect people to buy their shitty product and have no intention on improving the quality.
And no it isn't entitlement because smaller scale companies do a fantastic job, when they are able to find a publisher that isn't a multi-billion dollar corp.
People will pay, even when it is free, if you do a good enough job. This transcends games, it has been proven with cinema, music, TV, live performances.

No it didn't. The reason for the expanse into the Rhine was for the mines that were there.
The German value was steeply sinking even though it had a minor economic boost for 4 years. But their vast militarization, and the beginning of Keynes's Economics was leading to a shift in how banking worked, and how the National Dollar worked, and by this time, around 1938 the Germans would enter another recession, if it wasn't for their militirized and illegal expansionism.

Big sadness.

Corporations aren't monolithic, but they aren't a good thing either. The thing with a corporatist government is that the corps at least have to serve the populace with *something* that is pleasurable or desirable. Under communism you end up with nothing except some blocky apartment and a factory job.

This is the case for literally any other type of economic system expect that the lowest class in a capitalist system typically has a higher quality of life vs the lowest communist/socialist system class.

because we have the means to provide EVERYONE whatever they need in surplus, we just need to take off the artificial barriers between workers and the means of production, AND the barriers between whats produced and the people that needs it.

might sound too good to be true, but its been proven again and again, on times of crisis when you're taken away from the daily grind of capitalism, its very much human nature to help those in need, just because they are your fellow human. we don't have to let people suffer because thats the way things are you cowards. that just makes us jaded and misserable.

The problem with your self aggrandizing faggotry is that it's led you to believe that buying or even not pirating a video game somehow prevents studios (read: publishers) from going bankrupt or not "evolving" to the superior business model of selling lootboxes, as if an insanely profitable business model with high margins (thanks to exploiting people's compulsive behavior and children with poor financial judgement) all of a sudden becomes less profitable and not worth doing just because a bunch of anons on Yea Forums decide to stop pirating games.

Being parasitic is a basic tenet of capitalism. Your only real gripe is with who you think should and shouldn't be allowed to be parasites

This is childishness. You can't provide everything anyone needs nor or ever. The illusion of surplus only exists because the *daily grind* of capitalism has produced it.
Nor apparently does anyone in the history of the world because none have ever successfully reproduced it. Examples to the contrary if not.

How do you faggots even more retarded about politics than /pol/? Seriously it's fucking embarrassing.

At least you can admit to engaging in completely willful propagandization. Look, you’ve already severely limited your empathy to just those within your society, which already excluds the vast majority of people and is therefore less wrong.

>norway is socialist and it’s doing great
The biggest powers in the world are full tilt badly regulated exploitative capitalist.

I love voting with my wallet! I never bought a single game with MTX and they all disappe... Oh wait...

If you want social democracy you can vote for Biden like every other Democrat. No guarantee he will win, but that's another story.
And what esteemed board do you hail from? Out yourself.

>praising China, known human rights adherents to defend Capitalism

lol

Congrats on being the exact stereotype that image is mocking. Well done

And they were better with respect for human rights when they were full retard? I don't bloody think so.

who said anything about human rights? just look at the economics. It's pretty obvious the socialist economic ideas weren't working, but when they changed to capitalist they took off like a rocketship. I've met Chinese exchange students before and they are all business. They were literally asking me for my invention ideas, and what they could sell and make money.

But I’m not, I’m explining to you that Norway isn’t actually doing that great compared to the two military superpowers of the world who burn money like it’s going out of style and are worse for the civillians under them.

>If you want social democracy you can vote for Biden like every other Democrat

Is Yea Forums just a containment board for political illiterates who were too stupid for /pol/ or is it just you

Nice meme. If only socialism were as easy as posting an image all of the world's problems would be solved.

-s against the interests of the common consumer.

I know you think you're being witty but that's how toy lines work, dumbass

I don't care how politically literate you think you are, it doesn't have any bearing on the real world.

if you want a case for anarchy just look at the early internet. before corporation fucked everything up again, everyone organized in comunities who gave things for free to everyone who was interested, and people still do. newgrounds made talented animators grow and those animarles helped others grow too with no profit in mind.

you say you don't care about people suffering in the world, and there true, because they are just numbers to you. but when you see someone suffering in front of you and you can help you feel compelled to. this is not being hypocritical, its just human nature, because helping others is a selfish instinct to make the situation better.

Norway is a spectacularly resource rich country with a population lower than that of London, so it can afford welfare policies. The UK is proud of the NHS but it's barely holding together.

As opposed of excluding the vast majority of all society aside from a handful at the very top. But hey at least you're not 'engaging in completely willful propagandization' by openly admitting almost everyone should just fuck off and die. Too bad the same can't be said for the rest of your political chohorts.

Based and Dr Stonepilled

Norway uses the EU as a foothold to bolster themselves above the majority local economy

The same way a few select cities can implement a mandatory $15 dollar an hour minimum wage (despite the price of some goods rising anyway) and see better results for their citizens, Norway enriches its minority populace because it isnt big enough to ruin the surrounding economies

the US is way too big a player on the world stage for that

Where do Jews fit into this?

games are more and more expensive to make and they still cost the same price so they have to generate money by other means. If dlc didn't exist, base games would have even less content because it wouldn't be profitable

The early internet no longer exists because...? You are not making an argument for the sustainability of whatever you think anarchism is. All the bloo hoo hoo about caring people is meaningless.

Here's the thing: no it wouldn't faggot.
Literally everyone you've ever interacted with on this website could stop buying this shit cold turkey, assuming they were ever buying it to begin with, and it wouldn't make a fucking dent since the majority of people whaling on microtransactions make up a tiny percentage of the playerbase. Our spending habits aren't going to fix shit

If you are shilling for your own society and you live within the first world, you are already excluding the vast majority other than a handful at the very top. I’m just able to see this while you, for some reason, aren’t.

Having open and easy access to resources like the early days of the internet is important but quality inevitably leads to profit unless you use tyranny to perpetuate low standards.

China got where it is through intellectual property theft. It’s also more fascist than Nazi Germany

The same can be said for all of the nonsense you've spewed here. Literally nothing you say has any bearing on the real world.

>if you want a case for anarchy just look at the early internet
Your a fucking moron, if you want anarchy go hang out in a ghetto with niggers and see how good it is.

It's a little more complicated than this.

First of all let's understand the USA is paying for the defense of Europe.
Second thing, Norway has this humongous amount of oil, that's really why it's so rich.
Final thing, the USA has vastly different demographics.

Large parts of the USA literally look like pieces of Africa or Mexico were teleported there. Especially with an open border and 10's of millions of illegal immigrants it's very difficult to have welfare policies, it ends up just becoming a scam.
That is sort of the situation. It's not to say that people wouldn't necessarily want those policies, but its just not really a realistic thing to suggest in America. We all know how it will end, any sort of government handout just becomes a tax on whites to pay for blacks and hispanics

Well, then the status quo is maintained. Be happy.

Yea Forums is almost still in early internet culture. Is this an ideal, strong society to you?

because corporations and normalfags came to fuck everything. YouTube was fun and everyone happy until Google, now creators are exploited by their AI overlords. 4 channel is now the only kind of good place in the internet because of its anarchic structure.

Catalonia worked just fine according to pretty much every source.

lmao look at this retard

tl:Dr socialism good for Norway socialism bad for the US

>the US is way too big a player on the world stage for that
Exactly, we need all that money to fund endless wars for isreal and make sure baby boomers get paid out before they cancel social security for the generations after them

Capitalism is not a system, its a tree where we seal our demons.
But some of the evil of those demons still seep thru, which is why there is evil around tree.
But idiots like you think that if you cut down the tree, the evil will go away instead of letting all the demons free and killing everyone.

If anything, we need to invent a better tree, not try to force a system where you pretend the demons don't exist you starve.

>dude our society is running out of bread
>simple just control+c click the bread and BOOM! Society saved!!

Fixed that for ya.

Yeah, like I said, early internet culture. A bunch of 12 year olds.

Why does he want bernie sanders to see this? Does he think he's a communist? Does this retard think communism and socialism are the same thing? Does he think stores in european socialist countries look the same?

Of course you would be, liberal scum.

Sorry, are you suddenly not selfish because you are in a lesser position than someone else?

Yeah man Anarchy would totally be sunshine and rainbows because people who barely interact with each other over the early internet got along, it totally wouldn't be fall of Rome where everyone would go and seek protection to avoid getting raped and murdered by roving gangs.

So it's not sustainable? It's not competitive? It's what?
Okay, whatever.

More like Norwegian socialism is bad for American realities.

The problem with social democrats in the US is that the only want to adopt their welfare policies, they don't want to adopt their other policies that let them afford their large social safety net. When have you seen a social democrat praise their low corporate income tax, lax regulation, or high taxes on the lower class? The nordic system works, it's just that stupid leftists don't want to fully adopt it.

literally one of the first things they tell you in high school economics is that something that is good for one person isn't necessarily good if it happens to everyone

what is industry

we are literally throwing away goods to create artificial scarcity. for what? for the benefit of the 1%. you guys really like to be cucked huh

Attached: bred.jpg (482x720, 87K)

Wanting everyone in your nation of millionsto have equal access to basic goods and services is just as selfish as wanting the majority of people to starve or be needlessly killed so that a select few thousand people can have access to near infinite resources. You've cracked the code.

I pirate games because I support capitalism and acknowledge that intellectual property is not real property.

literally one of the first things they tell you in gh school economics is that something that is good for one person isn't necessarily good if it happens to everyone or even more than a few people, and that's a good thing.

>artificial scarcity
This is a meme. Scarcity still exists and is very real, I'm sorry your fully automated gay space luxury communism won't be plausible for another 500 years. We have a problem of production, not distribution.

It's just exploiting mentally ill people. Capitalism working as it should. I tried to help people I knew but "gamers" are so obnoxious and toxic that it's not worth it for your own sanity. You just let them enjoy their degeneracy and laugh at them.

Had a friend who would spend hundreds on his Steam level because he was insecure and had nothing else going for him in life. Having a high level made him accepted among his loser friends and made him "popular". Of course he would never admit that and would just deflect. As if I was jealous. Like being financially illiterate is prideful.

>Okay, whatever.
Perfectly sums up your knowledge on this subject

So you admit you screed of shared humanity is a farce, because what you mean is shared culture. I’m not here to tell you you’re “Just as selfish as a billionaire”, I’m here to stop you going all dewey eyed with your moral concepts.

The article isn't even real . Commies here are debating on false pretenses as usual

>So you admit you screed of shared humanity is a farce
Only because it isn't anything other than "humanity is a farce and should be culled"

>I’m not here to tell you you’re “Just as selfish as a billionaire”,
Yes you are

tell that to the tons of food (not even rotten ) being thrown away. say that to brand clothes burning their stock because its exclusive, the same clothes that costs the body and minds of entire families on shithole countries. tell that to people encouraged to throw away electronics that were made by sweat and blood, just because a capacitor burned, printers with ink cartridges that cannot be filled and don't even use all the ink inside.

Okay now why do I have to buy any of them? They're supplementing initial cost with extra addons that aren't mandatory.
>REEEE I DON'T LIKE IT REEEE

Thanks, you too. I look forward to President Bernie's inauguration.
American realities like the fact that we no longer have a nation state and people don't want to pay 1920's taxes when their neighbors don't even speak the same language as them.
There are too many of those people. I won't work for them to live.

>>haha wow that game developer who was literally paid for his work before anyone even got their hands on the game will really be hurt by that $30 you decided not to spend

Brilliant design

We'd all be wearing Burberry trench coats if it wasn't for them damn capitalist pigs!

Pure capitalism only works in developing / modernizing countries. Places where there is shit to do. Roads to pave, mines to build, power grids to erect, supply lines to create. Once a country is fully up to current specs capitalism becomes a parasite because there is so little to do. The biggest thing it can do is innovate and invent which is highly risky and as such the risk needs to be mitigated and offloaded. This creates highly anti-consumer practices as businesses seek to create as steady yet growing income as possible. At this point the government needs to step in and create regulations to keep businesses in check and to force them to compete and not use blatantly anti-consumer practices such as planed obsolescence or turning what should be regular product into "services" with monthly fees that they can then take away if the consumer wont keep paying for them.

WOW. 1/2 of that could be solved by ending globalism. No lore exploitation of 3rd world era if we just did our own manufacturing. Also, unsold products aren’t “artificial scarcity” and almost everything that doesn’t sell for its original price is sold on to a wholesaler. This does t even include places that take second hand clothes as donations that give them away. I know of several churches that sell used clothes for pennies but the racks are always overfilled because people think they’re “too good” to wear second hand. I have a pair of 2k dollar dress shoes I got for 5 dollars from a place like that

>i care about people

You’re selfish, and that’s okay. But stop pretending to be a selfless angel who just wants to help the world when you are already near the top.

Don't you mean President Biden, you know, the true socialist Democrat candidate

Apparently the Alaskan state government gives people money to buy land

>tell that to the tons of food (not even rotten ) being thrown away
They don't do that to save profits or keep people starving or whatever unfounded conspiracy theory you think of. The government literally makes it illegal to give food away that's already been served (even if it's not all eaten).

Cool story bro. Also good job shooting your own argument in the foot by calling me selfish. Also you're delusional if you think anyone with less than 7 figures in assets is anywhere near the top, but again why am I bothering to point out the obvious

There are growing pains as commodities become closer to what we might call utilities. We've been experiencing that recently with the internet and smartphones, and these things being ubiquitous is a positive result of capitalism despite the problems.
Global poverty is rapidly diminishing and if you care about people like communists say they do, they should support the continuation of that. Naturally socialists and communists are only concerned with being slightly less affluent than their neighbour.

Because women are already on easy mode. And weak men think they can get a slice of the pie

>Also you're delusional if you think anyone with less than 7 figures in assets is anywhere near the top
Not him, but America isn't the only country in the world. You do know the median global income is less than $3,000 a year right? Someone with 6 digits in assets is absolutely closer to the top than they are the middle or the bottom.

Clearly it's because the Democrats are far too socialist, they should stick with neoliberal candidates like the last one who worked out so well

How bad do you think the average Trump supporter is? Are they not human because they don't adhere to your ideology?
Sanders and Warren won't make it through the election cycle, too old and weak to make it through the election cycle without some showing of frailty like Hillary fainting and ragdolling on campaign. You think that didn't have an effect on the election? Policies don't matter, that's how Trump got elected.

Yeah someone with $100,000 in assets is way closer to those with $100,000,000,000 than the guy making $10,000 a year. The first two are practically in the same class, just like everyone else making more than $10,000/year

>Are they not human because they don't adhere to your ideology?
No because they're better than you are.

Humans survived for hundreds of thousand of years under a state of nature. Do you think we'll survive another thousand?

It's nice that you can connect with those across the aisle from you, user. With bipartisanship we can finally achieve socialism!

I'm convinced that commies are only commies because it signals they are slightly smarter than the average person. Shit like pic related should make them feel great, but they refuse to acknowledge anything positive about capitalism. Could you imagine actually being a commie? Seeing people serve their fellow man and being disgusted because it's "exploitation." Seeing the world improve dramatically in such a relatively short period of time and all they can think of is that the pie is fixed. What a miserable existence.

In terms of standard of living and ability to afford necessities with some entertainment, yes you are closer to them than people who make less than $3,000 a year.

>Strong private property rights

Yeah that sounds like capitalism.

>Policies don't matter
Of course not, which is why you argued against these policies earlier in the thread. Also Warren is younger than Trump and all of them are in their 70's and suffering from someone mental health condition

Stop being such a faggot and just accept that you don’t give a shit about the vast majority of humanity. We can bicker about how vast the majority is later, but you are getting very silly when you keep trying to state that you care because the amount of people you give a shit about numbers in the low millions instead of the tens of thousands in this world of billions.

Because they all imploded

we just think things could be better. those are the benefits of industry which has changed the world to our benefit, and that's a good thing.

T.brainlet.

Take a hike in the woods and clear your mind.
I'm not an election nor am I the population of America. Our discussion here doesn't change anything. Don't get too worked up.

And every time things get worse it just wasn’t real communism, every state that corrups is a regrettable fringe case, every economy that collapses is evidence of improper execution.

You're right dude, most people living under the poverty line in first world countries have just as easy access to essential goods and services just as much as people who have literally hundreds of billions of dollars. I mean even if you clear more than $70k a year you're basically in the same company as Bezos and Carlos Slim when you really think about it. I too judge economic class based on access to entertainment.

So you agree that both bezos and dumpy jeff have access to a supermarket, electricity, plumbing, and most basic needs.

There have been numerous studies showing a high correlation between economic freedom (defind in terms of private property rights) and prosperity. You want us to believe that if we swing to the opposite end and abolish private property rights that there will be a magical uptick in living standards?

You just derive all of your political knowledge from these two sources. But it's true, nothing you say here or anywhere will change anything or convince anyone. I won't get worked up over it.

My nihilistic faggotry is what happens when idiots like you take half a second to look at yourself and stops delivering moral platitudes. You are far closer to living a life of excess than you are a life of deprivation.

Weird how even after collapses capitalist systems exist while the only successful communist state is a capitalist state with red paint.

That's right, all of those things are provided by the government for free, it's not like America is suffering from a massive homeless problem. Bezos wealth is defined by having access to a super market and being able to shit in a working toilet.

I would still say that state socialism is more egregious than state capitalism, although neither are ideal.
