It's amazing how easily manipulated most people are.
Just tell them the free market can solve their problems
and they want to go all in, deaf dumb and blind as fuck.
Tell them socialism will steal their freedom, and they'll buy it, lol

Except there are no free markets anywhere, except the labor market where each worker is pit against every other worker (within a geographical and sphere of activity zone) for who will do the most for least. Which is why capitalism ABSOLUTELY NEEDS a good dose of Socialism along with it, to regulate its excesses. Scandinavia, France, the UK, Canada, Germany and many other Western nations have done very well with a moderate socialist-capitalist system.

Yes yes, there is absolutely nothing between 100% free market and socialism.

Brainlet.

Communists aren't people. They are property of the state

But he said Socialism, not Communism. Wait, you guys don't even know the meaning of the words you use, right?

Does anybody here realize that linking Socialism with Communism was done by MARX and LENIN and that if you repeat that same association which they falsely promulgated, YOU ARE REPEATING COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA???

Is that really so difficult to understand?

It's strange because marx and engels would disagree with you. Communism and socialism are one and the same. You are either being willfully ignorant or intellectually dishonest. Next thing you know you'll be saying that the manmade famine in the Ukraine had nothing to do with communism and socialism. They also have a large majority that historically have been homophobes, racists, pseudo intellectuals, racists, antisemites, and historical revisionists. Maybe you need to reexamine your argument for it is you that is peddling propaganda.

Marx says that, yes. That's why IT'S COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA. Marx was a fucking commie. And so are you since you hold him as your reference. Well done, commie.

As for the ACTUAL definition of socialism, absent COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA, look here: https://philosophyterms.com/socialism

I'm staunchly anti communist and anti socialist. I used marx and engles to highlight the hypocrisy of it all. Socialism had and always will be the precursor of communism. It's ironic though, because using your logic that would make Hitler a socialist. Have a seat

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Yes, Hitler was a Socialist. A National Socialist Fascist, like me. Do you have a point or do you just want to keep on displaying how well COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA has poisoned your mind?

So your assumption that I'm a communist is based upon what? The fact that I've educated myself on the filth of the world? I hate communists and I hate socialists of all stripe. But I digress, my point is that if your are either you aren't even a human being, you're state property. That includes national socialists. Educate yourself, both Mein Kampf and Das Kapital were written by faux intellectuals. I hate being this embarrassed for another individual as I am for you. Again, I am anti communist and anti socialist in any form.

No, you are not. You have drunk the koolaid and are repeating COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA. Proof: you think Socialism and Communism, which are in fact diametrically opposed to one another and completely incompatible with each other, are compatible and lead to one another. It is MARX AND LENIN WHO SAID THESE THINGS. YOU KEEP ON REPEATING COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA as if they were undeniable facts when in fact, we who stand against communism understand that these are absolute lies.

The pre-Marx Socialists would wholeheartedly disagree with you. They were anarchists, libertarians and capitalists, all at the same time as being Socialists. You need to learn this stuff if you're going to talk about it.
