Every day since the 19th century...any day now

Pretty hilarious to see a guy from a capitalist shithole that's tearing itself apart acting all smug. Never gets old.

As hilarious as seeing a guy from a capitalist country fantasising over a fake communist country

We seized some means of production... sort of?

[-] Ilovethebomb@lemmy.ml 23 points 2 years ago

There have been at least two different countries seize the means of production over the years, it didn't really work out for either of them. Turns out they just swapped one bourgeoise class for another, while the peasants and proles starved.

What you said is fractally wrong.

[-] Ilovethebomb@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago

What do fractals have to do with this?

Is this a memes community? Or a soviet shit hole? I escaped reddit because it was shit and the ultra gatekeeping communists shitfaces, I hate to leave lemmy because of this as well, not many capitalists around this site -_-

I'm deeply sorry that we don't like supporting the oppression of marginalized groups here

[-] rk96@lemmy.one 11 points 2 years ago

Yes, as if communism doesnt support opressing literally everyone, you western "communists" are really special aren't ya?

[-] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

How do you oppress everyone in an economic model focused on worker enfranchisement?

...or do you not know what communism means and just belive China, the USSR and DPRK when they say they're communist?

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Sooo there aren't any examples of communism working but it totally is going to when done right! I could counter with "if capitalism was done right nobody would be oppressed and everyone would want for nothing".

[-] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

This really isn't difficult stuff.

Communism is based on worker enfranchisement and abolition of the commodity form. Where is the inherent incentive for autocracy, and what examples would you care to cite?

Capitalism, on the other hand, naturally favours monopoly thanks to factors including economic power acting as political power, first mover advantage, and economies of scale. Capitalism has no inherent need to even be democratic. Your democracy is polluted by economic influence, your workplace is autocratic. What is there to get right that stops any of this?

... But more importantly, how do you oppress everyone in an economic model focused on worker enfranchisement?

bye felicia

[-] Commiunism@lemmy.wtf 13 points 2 years ago

I'm genuinely curious - what do you think communism is? There's been a lot of definitions over the years and a lot of confusion over the subject, so I'm really interested to hear what do people such as yourself think communism really is that makes them hostile to the idea.
