Karl Marx, inventor of white genocide and transgenderism or somethingAvid hater of the iphone
>>18758756Don't forget the first line of the Communist Manifesto comrade>Communism is when you have basic heckin empathy o algo, also no iPhone or something
>>18758760And who can forget about his Asian counterpart, Mao, and his famous quote>Real power comes from voting!
>>18758756You fags are hypocrites for not even taking the simplest and easiest steps to live the ideology you advocate for. That's the root of "muh iPhone" criticism. Also why you fags love posting that gay "yet you live in society" comic.
>>18758777Don't forget Lenin's What must be done? where he answers with "Communism, which is when the government does stuff. And the more stuff the government does the more communister it is."
>>18758799"Communism is when gay browns and poverty or something"-Karl Marx

>>18758799I would unironically buy a Pyongyang 2348 phone if the country weren’t embargoed. Same for clothing.

>>18758925Marxism is pseudo science for pretentious asshole, bitter failsons, and lazy losers.
>>18758925calling him a philosopher is VERY generous.he never bothered actually thinking things through beyond casual surface observations and emotional blogposts
The J***** N***** Lasalle
These threads are always so funny because it’s blatantly obvious no one (not even the people defending communism ITT) has read any material at all on this. I am honestly convinced it’s bots, although I get replies when I find them early before they get filled with nonsense that drowns out anything useful.
>>18759697>betrays Makhno>betrays Kronstadt>betrays Menshevik-Internationalists>his successor destroys communism's credibility for a fucking centuryWas Lenin just a German plant or what
>>18759838Lenin detested any form of open discussion, believed himself to be an omnipotent prophet and treated Marxism as a religion. Stalin on the other hand was more pragmatic, down to earth and had no problems with criticism (in private of course).
>>18758760You wouldn't have an Iphone under communismYou can just look at the Soviet Union, they didn't even have toilet paper, and Communist regimes today, like North Korea, have to steal phones from places like ChinaAnd communists certainly don't have empathy, see Pol Pot
>>18759866Stalin had problems with age of consent lawsBut we don't talk about that because as communists we have no problem with pedophilia and encourage it
>>18761808>they didn't even have toilet paper,they did get it eventually they just took an embarrassingly long time getting there>And communists certainly don't have empathy, see Pol Pot>Pol PotSomeone who larped as a Maoist without actually understanding what it meant. Just like how Mao larped as a doctrinaire marxist while not actually reading most of what Marx wrote. As for empathy itself I think it'd be harder to find major political groups which have actual empathy after you remove those which are obviously just performative about it.
>>18758939No body I see. Says it all.
>>18762347Yeah I listen to Fin Vs History as well. I'm a vietmong.
>>18761808Are there really idiots who think the Khmer Rouge was actually communistNext you're going to say that making Quechua soup was what Marx's secret recipe in Critique of the Gotha Program that brave Comrade Gonzalo revealed to the world
>>18758756The thing with Marx is that he's a social critique. He showed that capitalism was not a transhistorical behavior that men exhibited but rather a particular socio-historical system that generated antagonisms between different social groups. This in itself isn't anything crazy nowadays, but for its time it was novel. Hence, when right-wingers oppose marxism, they find it hard disagreeing with Marx's point because they're largely sociological or historical. For instance, it's not hard seeing that yes, capitalism is indeed a particular system, that it has its own logic centered on profit, and this logic creates situations in which different social categories (e.g. workers & bosses, poor consumers & profit-decision) hold antagonisms. The very obvious solution for right-wingers and anticommunists would simply be to acknowledge his critique, but explain why it has some shortcomings. This however, would delegitimize the rabid anti-communist feeling which stems from anti-soviet sentiment. Hence, 90% of the criticisms you get from them boil down to either misinterpreting Marx, reducing marxism to the soviet-experience, or autistically focusing on certain notions whilst missing the bigger picture (i.e. LTV, plannification, teleology etc).
Capitalism is the private ownership and free trade of the means of production, which are land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship. Profit is returned to land and labor due to input demand.We prefer to achieve any chosen end sooner (or we wouldn’t have acted). High-time preference individuals don't want to take risks, so they'd rather purchase someone else's services than do someone's job, which is why they earn less.Socialism is literally "when the government does stuff" (lack of private ownership and free trade).
