      It’s because when the current system is unsustainable people start to promote other ideas.

      I get that you need to infantilize the position to stay so flippant but unfortunately for you it’s more childish to resort to insults when you can’t come up with any other response but still feel the need to say something.

        The current system is entirely sustainable. It does need reforms, but a regulated market economy combined with strong social welfare programmes is the best economic system we’ve come up with so far, by a very large margin. Planned economies were attempted, they universally failed.

      “It’s communist propaganda to point out the vast inequality that continues to worsen.”

      No you’re right, everything is just peachy.

      this argument is so obnoxious, like how old do you think Lenin is? Castro? Ho Chi Minh? Marx? where does this notion that communists are all young come from? There are at least 5 communists over 70 years old in my local organizing circle

      Lemmy is A developed by Marxist Leninist B through it’s structure and the activity pub standard it is way more appalling to Leftists than other social media platforms and C Cyberghost loves for some reason to post (mostly tankie) propaganda into this meme channel. I mean this one is a good meme many others are not

      Eh, I dunno how I feel about simplyfing communism to be representative of all leftist beliefs. Moreover, it’s still less cringe than spelling out how an acronym sounds. This isn’t elementary school.
