The Truth
Didn’t watch vids yet, but I agree with the title.


Once everything became ALL about that piece of paper, who’s value doesn’t actually exist and isn’t backed by anything, then it definitely became a new form of slavery for everyone.

Even slavery itself, which was born out of racism and hatred but actually sustained by capitalism.. these fukkers were making money and becoming “wealthy” which is why they didn’t want it to end. Once it did, they just morphed it into something else.

All over greed, profits, and status… nothing has changed obviously and that has become more apparent lately

The problem isn't Capitalism. The problem is the people at the top. Every system can be exploited.

If we switched to Communism or Socialism tomorrow, would we be better off? No. Because the people at the top would still run on the same mantra. We would probably be worse off.

You saying this alone means you don’t understand socialism or communism. Especially communism.

There’s no true communist or socialist countries. The closest we have is the swedens Netherlands and story like that. They live a better life than most US citizens while also living in a place that shouldn’t touch the best parts of the US.

Are you a black man? Would blacks who move to Sweden, a mostly white country, live a better life?


Live in your reality and not a fantasy made up in your mind.

A lot of these dudes stay living in fairytales. And the crazy part is, none of a REAL background in government or running government. I would take them serious if they has real life experience.

They actually think a country built on racism would play fair towards blacks under a different system :mjlol:

So you dont think socialism or communism can be exploited?

No one would try to exploit either of those systems?

In the discussion of exploitation and what if's, yeah, sure. But the order of what's better overall for a society, goes in the order of Communism > Socialism > Capitalism. The true, ideal outcome for each philosophy, it's clear.

If you go back in history, every time a communist state popped up, the US meddled within the country to thwart its success. A quick rundown from chat:

CountryCommunism “pops up” (year)Did the U.S. InterveneWhat kind of interaction (very short)
Soviet Union1917YesEarly intervention + later Cold War containment
Mongolia1924LimitedMostly diplomatic distance / late recognition
China1949YesMajor rivalry; Korea/Taiwan-era confrontation
North Korea1948YesKorean War; long sanctions/hostility
Vietnam1945YesVietnam War (major U.S. combat role)
Laos1975YesIndochina proxy/covert conflict spillover
Cambodia1975YesIndochina war spillover; strong hostility
Cuba1959YesBay of Pigs + long embargo/sanctions
Albania1946YesCold War hostility (limited direct action)
Bulgaria1946YesCold War hostility (limited direct action)
Czechoslovakia1948YesCold War hostility (limited direct action)
East Germany1949YesBerlin-centered Cold War confrontation
Hungary1949YesCold War hostility (limited direct action)
Poland1947YesCold War hostility (limited direct action)
Romania1947YesCold War hostility (limited direct action)
Yugoslavia1945Yes (mixed)Hostile early, later significant U.S. engagement
Afghanistan1978YesMajor covert/proxy war period
Angola1975YesBacked anti-communist side in civil war
Ethiopia1974Limited/MixedShift in alliances; mostly indirect competition
South Yemen1969LimitedRegional rivalry; mostly indirect
Grenada1979YesU.S. invasion in 1983

Dismantling capitalism dismantles the hold a lot of these ultra wealthy old money devils have on the US and a lot of other western nations. That's why they demonized words such as socialism and communism. They're devils. Interested in hoarding wealth and creating imaginary economic lines in the sand.
Again from chat, here is a concise breakdown of each.


Capitalism

The basic idea is that people and companies should be free to own property, start businesses, and compete, because competition and profit push innovation and efficiency. Its structure is mostly private ownership and markets setting prices and deciding what gets produced, with government rules varying by country. The goal is economic growth and individual opportunity through voluntary exchange. In practice, it aims to raise living standards, but can also concentrate wealth without strong competition and safeguards.


Socialism

The core idea is that the economy should be organized to serve the public and workers, not primarily owners, so that wealth and power don’t pile up at the top. Its structure increases social/worker/public ownership or control of key industries (sometimes alongside markets), and usually includes stronger public services and worker protections. The goal is greater equality, security, and democratic control over the economy. In practice, it tries to balance fairness with productivity, and can struggle if it becomes overly bureaucratic or poorly run.


Communism

The philosophy is that class conflict comes from private ownership of major productive property, so society should move to common ownership where no one lives off owning what others must work for. Its structure in theory ends with a classless, stateless system where resources are shared and decisions are made collectively; in practice, countries that called themselves communist often used state ownership and one-party rule as a “transition.” The ultimate goal is a society with no economic classes and no exploitation, where people get what they need and contribute what they can. The biggest real-world risk has been power concentrating in the state rather than disappearing.

So you tell me, reading these three, which would be easiest to exploit others, as well as, which would be best and worst for society.

There's much more to it than that. Unless you have a strong background in economics and government background and work amongst other governments leaders, its not something you can speak on.

Most developed and developing countries today are 'mixed' economic systems. Its not a one faced solution like you make it to be.

To think the world would be rainbows and unicorns under just communism is silly and delusional.
