And people who thinks it's either capitalism or communism are dumb fucks.

Authoritarianism is the real cancer upon society

It's not the '-isms', my guy.

It's people. Flawed beings making and interacting with flawed systems.

It takes people to enact policies around the -isms and to make the -isms themselves, so I dont really see the logic here.

The OP said "...-ism is the real cancer upon society". I was pointing out that people are the real cancer of society. It doesn't matter what "-ism" you want to stand behind, there will always be issues because humanity is fundamentally broken.

humanity is fundamentally broken

I'd argue that humanity and an -ism aren't that different in this context -- arbitrary linguistic form aside, they both refer to abstract collectives.

But ultimately, I still don't see the logic in separating humanity from the systems it created and uses. Fixing one fixes the other, in bilateral fashion.

Thinking that memes like this aren't just tankies who think the ussr was a tragic loss is hilarious. This is tankie shit.

You do know the USSR was a country and not a political ideology, right?

[-] SupraMario@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You're an idiot if you think my comment on the USSR collapsing was talking about a political ideology...
