    Love how everyone’s argument for capitalism is just ‘well communism sucks too’.

    Good job regurgitating half a century’s worth of propaganda, no one mentioned communism and there’s more than just 2 ways to run q society

      How about making fair regulations to stop corporations from abusing capitalism instead of forcing communism on everyone?

          It doesn’t work because of corruption. The same exact reason why communism doesn’t work.

        I love how the person you replied to mentioned that no one is mentioning communism as an alternative, yet you’re bringing it up once again when the person you replied to isn’t forcing communism on you at all

      I was born and have lived in a communist country. It doesn’t “suck too”, it gets you killed. Good job regurgitating garbage tired internet arguments.

        Dictators and authoritarianism get you killed. Some capitalist countries have also have these things and, oddly enough, people also die for the same reasons. Could it be… the economic model actually isn’t the issue?

          Except there are democratic capitalist countries, all communist countries are dictatorships.

            Ahhh, the old “I know nothing about what I’m talking about so I’m going to keep making things up” defense. Classic move and stunningly performed. I can tell you have practice.

              The classic: I’m not going to disprove you because I cannot name one communist country that isn’t a dictatorship, but I want to sound cool nonetheless. Well done.

              How’s the Che Guevara t-shirt made in a sweatshop doing?
