    This site is so full of commies, I swear. Sometimes it feels like I'm the only true liberal on here.

        You are literally telling me what to do (authoritarianism) and trying to get me to participate in collective action (communism).

      The dominant Communist ideology is so pervasive that even when people try to oppose it, they end up trying counterproductive approaches like organizing their communities which just ends up strengthening solidarity. The reason Capitalism survived as long as it did wasn't because of a bunch mutual aid groups supporting it, it was because of atomization and alienation.

      Read theory commies. It's all available on capitalists.com for a monthly subscription in Bitcoin, so you really have no excuse.

    It all went wrong when Marx imagined that contradictions need resolving. The constant tension was the only thing that made life worth living. Remember that awesome tension when your boss would say "Hey, I pay you for your time, so you'll do what I say?" That alienation made life worth living. Fuck the commies trying to remove our right to a static, complex world of interconnected individuals. I want to feel the hate of the people under me, it's the only way they or I will understand our TRUE place in this world

    the neoliberal uprising against the proletariat was the largest and most comprehensive human nature revolution in history, and led to almost total redistribution of land from the peasantry to the new landlord class

    in a communist world there would be no capitalists. a capitalist is a bourgeois person under a capitalist mode of production, who profits passively off of surplus labor value by investing capital in private property. a person in a communist society who wishes the mode of production was capitalism is not a capitalist. they are simply a reactionary dipshit

    I have a really cool idea for a tabletop RPG. It involves a really broken dystopian world where there's these creepy hoarders that have convinced most of the rest of society to give them everything they want and want to be praised for it all the while. They're over the top monstrous and do unspeakable things, especially to children, and have hoards on massive treasure ships and remote tropical islands. It's a race against time in the setting because the longer they rule over everything they more they devastate and pollute the planet. Oh yeah, and they got a habit of draining their minions of their blood to try to prolong their own lives.

    There's lots of character templates to choose from! If you want higher difficulty, certain skin colors are specifically targeted for additional oppression by the armed gangs that protect the hoards of the hoarders.

      Seems kinda unrealistic, why would the population just let them do this instead of simply overthrow their stupid masters?

        Maybe there's a spell cast over the masses that makes most of them believe they will also be rich vampires someday, OR that if they obey the rich vampires, they will get to hurt, punish, and torment anyone lower on the hierarchy than themselves.

    i think many people missed the point of this post, AOC_feet_pics meant to act not as a capitalist as in a person who owns private property, but ONE WHO DOES NOT KNOW THE LOWERCASE ALPHABET.

    Kinda unfair that the worker is entitled to the full value of their labour. I should be allowed to siphon the value of other's labour, how else will anyone get ahead and innovate?

    the nomenklatura is recalling produce for having “deadly toxins from illegal pesticides” in them, if only we allowed the market to regulate itself so that i could eat :angery:
