Why do y’all have to be so uppity and pompous about this s***, up to the point of delusion.
You’re taking about capitalism brainwashing society yet want to build a world that removes all individuality lmao. You want to create a society where it is “physically impossible” for a human to commit a crime, which implies we know how every individual acts. That’s dystopian and is actual brainwashing.
I know this isn’t the discussion of your thread (but isn’t it something that all of your threads are easily picked apart and derailed). But the way you frame your arguments is so off-putting Jesus.
If I didn't have to work 40 hours a week for 15 an hour I would spend so much more time gardening, painting, exercising, and loving my family and friends. If that is a what a removal of "individuality" is then sign me the f*** up.
Sorry if some of us are upset and hurt your delicate sensibilities, we've just happened to live through two once in a lifetime economic crashes while the stock market skyrockets and wealth inequality has never been stronger.
Effort is effort, regardless of how much training goes into it both, waste collectors and researchers both employ high levels of effort to complete their job effectively. Just because one could do the other’s job without nearly as much training or education doesn’t make them worth more or less.
i already stated that those were random ass examples i made up to prove a point. not trying to turn this into an argument about the value of garbage collecting labour lol.

Have you read a history book
That would not be society

Have you ever replied to me in a way that wasn't condescending

to be fair i think their point is that even if capitalism has improved peoples lives over the years, communism implemented correctly would create even bigger returns
Listen bro i know u usually got great post and i bet you this one is too. Im here to show support. Wont be reading. But I appreciate this thread.
Have you ever replied to me in a way that wasn't condescending
You reply in synop threads but I’m condescending. How?
how is that true? my current lifestyle (and this applies to millions of people living in America) is terrible and exploitative for the developing world but great for me.
if we were utilitarian about it, we would massively decrease my quality of life to help those people out. how is that "good for me"?
i think your quality of life would greatly improve.
you wouldn't be working under the threat of poverty, homelessness etc., but instead out of love for what you do, which is something only very few people get to experience. it sounds like a much more fulfilling life.

Until someone in a place of power in a fully communist system abuses the control & power they have over people

literally capitalism every day
No form of government implemented has been implemented correctly is because human flaws cause corruption. Communism, capitalism, socialism ETC
You reply in synop threads but I’m condescending. How?
Just the way it is I guess.
Also I like how you took my post to mean the erasure of all society not, oh idk, keeping the minimum wage in line with it's buying power since the 50s so that it would be over 30 dollars.
Like what are these replies to my posts man I know you're a smart mfer so articulate your self.
literally capitalism every day
& communism. Ethnic cleansing of 2+ million innocent Uighur Muslims as we speak
Let's just put the planet in the bin we had a good run. Go next.

It’s all a simulation anyways. Climate change ITT

disagree ... how do you maintain our current excess of food supply, technology built with precious metals, public transit etc without exploiting the developing world for labour and resources? something has to give, and it has nothing to do with whether I work or not.
also you can't arbitrarily choose what you want to work on until we reach the point of total automation. if the Synopsis Revolution happened tmrw people would be forced to do labour they might not want to do, there is literally no way around that (for now)

china is not a communist society.
but you act like thats what im advocating.

Fr who cares about an economic system when no matter which one we pick we'll still be consuming at a unsustainable rate. Clathrate gun when? Blue ocean event when?

You see how I feel talking to op?
Why you be posting political manifestos on here every week like this is an appropriate platform for that? Its a kanye fan site....

Nope 🤷🏼♂️
I f***in hate capitalism
No argument on the exploitation it causes
But no current form of human made government can or will work for masses because phsyopathic people often rise to power
Your idea of an ideal government can’t happen because not everyone is you, has your beliefs or wants to live live the way that you want to live it. Wether you can argue it is or isn’t better doesn’t matter. A large number of outliers won’t agree and will cause conflict. How do you handle that conflict? War? Genocide? You can’t put millions of people who violently disagree with your ideas in ‘rehab facilities’
You see how I feel talking to op?
I don't give a f*** about how u feel talking to him
Let's just put the planet in the bin we had a good run. Go next.
random thought I had after reading an article about the resource limits of the universe. you cant really dismiss ideas like interplanetary travel/expanding out of the solar system bc they're literally the only way to avoid human extinction.
even if the Plants Utopia happened tmrw and everyone lived sustainably you'd have doomers 5 billion years from now making KTT3000 threads about how the Sun is about to burn out
