No, thats a discussion that varies from country to country, according to its own peculiarities, so each and every nation should find its own ideal balance. It also varies from time to time, so thats a discussion thats never outdated.
As opposed to the viability of communism, which only people who want to see everyone living in misery consider worth having.
No, capitalism fucked up pretty much everywhere. Maybe you should talk to people outside of the country club.
YOu realize that if we don't drastically change our economic system in 12 years, all life on earth dies, right?As opposed to the viability of communism, which only people who want to see everyone living in misery consider worth having.
Both of your statements are so deeply wrong, Jesus Christ. It takes an absurd level of stupidity to believe all life on earth will die within 12 years, that's the most precise example of fearmongering i have ever seen.
Also, capitalism is the only viable system we developed so far, and thanks to this system, even the poor here in the 3rd world can buy amenities, like smartphones.
Okay, now you're comprehensible. Nonsensical, but at least I and other readers can tell what you're saying.
You're saying that because the US supported some nasty dictators after WII, during the capitalist democracy vs. authoritarian communist struggle of the Cold War, WWII wasn't rreally about democrats, communists, monarchies and nations of all types joining together to smash the fascist Axis.
/shrug
You're wrong. And you're completely missing my point.
Everyone hates facists, except other fascists. Because fascists are exceptionally nasty and destructive. So much so, that opposed ideologies of government, like the USSR and USA, or the Chinese Nationalists and Chinese Communists set aside their differences to smash fascists together. That they went back to messily butting heads once the fascists were dealt with is sad but should not surprise anyone.
And you're confusing authoritarian or totalitarian governments with fascist ones.
They're not the same thing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Definitions_of_fascism
Impeach the MF.
I didn't say it would die in 12 years. That's just how long we have until we hit the point of no return.
"Sure poor people don't have access to basic necessities like clean drinking water, homes, food, or healthcare. And we're dying younger and real wages haven't risen since the 60's. But hey, we can now pay Samsung hundreds of dollars for $20 worth of silicon, and pay AT&T dozens of dollars a month for throttled data."Also, capitalism is the only viable system we developed so far, and thanks to this system, even the poor here in the 3rd world can buy amenities, like smartphones.
Whee!!!

Why do you believe it's false?
wow lets blame the ideology for some amount of things that have nothing to do with said ideology, but have everything to do with incompetence
lets blame corporatism that has nothing to do with capitalism(ask capitalists themselves what they think about corporatism)
also im going to add this:
just because some people are living in the middle of nowhere(and prefer to live there) doesnt mean that someone should go out of their way and provide all of what you typed about to these people. And that has nothing to do with capitalism, its just common sense.. once upon a time there were no supermarkets, period. And now all of a sudden people that live in the middle of nowhere are upset that they dont have a supermarket close to them? should they also build supermarkets in Antarctica because some people live there?
essentially all of these problems are problems because of incompetence as i already said, not because of capitalism

You forget, as part of their absorption into Woke Capital and the mainstream, Antifa has to you know, lose all that communist stuff. They can still dress up and wave the flag though if they want, but at this point they are just agents of Woke Capital in the US.

Once Antifa had the adoring praise of CNN, I knew they were co-opted and dead.

Praising what amounts to the right-liberal side of the aisle isn't really praising Conservatives. Now if you'd named Patrick Buchannan, maybe you'd have one on your list, but praising a bunch of Internationalists whose ambitions are mainly to spread the "free market" around and expand American Imperial influence isn't exactly a praise of Conservatism.
On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism. Bellingcat is an MI6/CIA cut out. Clyburn Truther.
Is this like when Mormons convert dead people?
You're getting exactly what you deserve.
Have you ever heard of a monopoly? Monopolies eat up competition, ignore supply/demand laws to set their own prices, and are the inevitable result of a free market. Left alone, they have as much power as a government, without the ability for citizens to remove them.
The free market is only democratic to a point.
Edit: Modern America is the result of the government failing to keep big businesses (some of them monopolies) out of the legislative process. Studies show that politicians pass more legislation supporting their donors than the will of the people.
