I appreciate the effort, but it is unrealistic to expect an old tree to straighten.
A better illustration:
Inclusion at the end is fucking stupid. A baseball game where random people are playing is not the same thing as a pro game people are watching. Someone who has one arm trying to hit a major league pitch is going to be completely destroyed and it won't be fun for anyone. This naive and stupid understanding of inclusion is what makes random morons think they're experts on vaccines despit what the elite scientists think because they watched a video on YouTube. Not everyone can do everything, and they shouldn't be expected to. People have different skills and strengths and the rest of the meme acknowledges that and then at the end it just becomes completely stupid. You can even tell that some moron, probably an HR drone, tacked this on at the end and probably felt smug about going above and beyond the original comic without actually understanding what it was saying.
I think the fence also likely exists for a reason, so removing the fence isn't a good example of justice. Rather, changing the viewing area to be above the fence would be a better example.
I think you're taking this too literally. It's a good representation of the words and their meanings. Obviously it does not accurately portray a baseball game. It's not trying to. It's an analogy.
The analogy sucks ass. Everyone getting to watch the baseball game unimpeded is inclusion, some lazy dumbass just wanted to one up the original comic and didn't think it through.
Communism will never exist ,it's utopia ,it becoming authoritarianism very quickly.We need other real alternatives to what we have now
Marxism is anti-utopian, it's based on analyzing how societies evolve over time. What is deemed "authoritarianism" is the need for the proletariat to exert its control over the bourgeoisie, rather than the reverse, yet bourgeois rule is more authoritarian.
I recommend you don't get your information about communism solely from devout anti-communists
I lived in post sovier counties with USSR time ages,so I know pretty well what it was actually.It's awful and never should happen again,but I didn't say that I like capitalism too they both authoritarianism in extreme limits
The majority of people who lived in the Soviet Union want it back. Your complaints about socialism don't make any sense, either.
Sounds like you're the one who expects utopia
This echoes my concerns every time someone (especially under the age of about 40, especially American) praises "communism" (as if it were one thing) with some kind of absolute adoration.
In this case, OP: how did that justice work for the political dissidents sent to gulags?
The vast majority of people sent to prison by the soviets were criminals, thieves, murderers, rapists, etc. The political prisoners were largely members of the White Army, fascists, monarchists, or were active terrorists against society. For a country that went through a revolution, resistance from the older owning classes is expected, other revolutions were similar in use of force against the monarchy and other ruling classes.
Often repeated, but never much nuance or substance.
Blue shirt keeps doing sus hand gesture in every panel idk if we should let him have any apples
Little dude just trying to reach his apples 🤣
He is struggling to reach them. You can learn more from his book "My Struggle". Once a best-seller in Germany
Why does the right-wing kid not just come over to the left-wing?
Conservatives want to bring us back to the first one, because "it's naive childishness to even pretend people could be equal".
Both liberal and conservatives benefit from inequality. Conservatives are just more vocal about it.
Why is there a question mark on 'equality'?
I am assuming that it is because people see "equality" as the epitome of human fairness, so it is questioning that.
Sounds like it's saying "or maybe this isn't real equality?", which is very counter to what I assume is its intended message, an attempt to convince the reader that equality isn't the epitome of human fairness.
Well, equality is sometimes referred to in the vain of "everyone is equal" rather than "everyone is treated equal". I think that might be what it's saying. When the social idea of equality first emerged, I cannot imagine even for a second that they were like "yeah, everyone should be given exactly the same things regardless of their personal situation", because nobody striving for an idea LIKE equality would come to that resolution. Like, equity is just what equality should have been in the first place.
