its almost if they want to start a revolution but god dam the right wingers are such faggots

Well liberals are generally non violent, and just want to be left alone with lower taxes. Commies are the ones that want to take stuff by force because they're not smart enough to win through actual work.

@nerdman Communists were pretty instrumental in many labour movements to achieve things like 40 work week. @11112011

@terryenglish @11112011

Horses were instrumental in industrializing. We don't use them for industrial work anymore. Some things become obsolete with time and technological advancements.

@nerdman What can I say, I believe in giving credit where it's due even though I personally am not a communist. @11112011

@terryenglish @11112011

I'll be the first to say, "Thanks communism for all the positives things you brought to us", at communism's funeral where we put it in the cremation oven and prepare to sadly spread it's ashes over the sands of history.
@terryenglish @11112011

But we won't because it works. As recognized by Lenin when NEP, Deng Xiaoping after they got rid of Mao, etc.

@nerdman Capitalism works πŸ˜‚ That's a good one! It worked right up to the point our species wiped itself out following the logic of a failed system. It had it's time. Time to find something new. @11112011

@nerdman Is that the same graph that Steven Pinker cites in one of his latest books? I think it's called Enlightenment Now or something. @11112011

@terryenglish @11112011

No clue. Reading books not big on my "stuff I do" list.

@nerdman I'm pretty sure that graph has been debunked as feels over reals propaganda due to major methodological problems with it. @11112011

@terryenglish @11112011

It does look too good to be true.

But there's no denying that the only major famines we've had since the 80s were in North Korea (and the average Venezuelan lost like 10kg and not through exercise.) There's billions of people on the internet. There's a billion people using some Apple product.

These are not properties for a world where poverty is rampant.

If you want to replace capitalism you have to find something better and even the most retarded of us (that's me) know enough history to know that socialism isn't it.
