jordan peterson being defined as one of the most important thinkers of the era must mean there are really few prominent thinkers left

its saying marxism fails because it doesnt take into consideration the flaws of human nature that run far deeper than things like capitalism

why are you putting words in my mouth?

im simply presenting you guys with a view opposing your own because im curious about your opinions on it and you all get defensive/butthurt

ah yes the human nature argument

certainly one that has never been posited to any socialist before.

right, go on

you love saying things like this but never have any kind of answer or rebuttal

you people literally cannot handle criticism

Can you go ahead and explain what human nature is and how it manifests itself

get off your throne and talk like a normal person

How would you go about examining human nature in a way independent from one's material conditions or outside of societal influences?

its a pretty simple question: what is human nature

one bad leader and communism is ruined forever

get 45 bad ones, capitalism is still the way!

Answer the question: What is human nature?

so the only reason it went wrong is because stalin was a bad man?

what about mao?

thats being short sighted

human characteristics inherent amongst everybody, the drive to survive and succeed in life

beautiful. and how does a system like socialism invalidate the ability for humans to survive

if the corpses of the 20th century arent enough, how many are enough?

So, according to whom?

And what characteristics make up human nature?

are you asking this same question of capitalism?

it destroys a humans soul, it removes the characteristics of what makes them special or unique, turns them into pieces of meat that all form together to attain an unattainable utopia

How so?

point out to me the corpses that exist due to capitalism

sounds like capitalism, except attaining an attainable utopia for the rich

you can only be happy if you're rich?

im not rich

im happy because im free
