Because American and other intelligence agencies was and still is using the kompromat to blackmail people.

When the genocide happened. I thought that was obvious.

Yes it was, learn what communism is. You can’t just label things you don’t like as communism.

Don’t just declare it to be different, grow a spine and demonstrate the difference as you were asked or do one.

What if he slipped and accidentally turned it all into wine?

They had private enterprise. So, In what way were they not capitalist? Imperial colonial economies are capitalist, by nature.

It just described what they had in the soviet union though…

Can you name the differences or is it just that it “feels kinda commie” to you?

Tbf, i dont think they could name all of the African American slaves or the millions killed in the DRC.

You know the drill: Ukrainian starvation genocide = crime of communism.

When the Turkish capitalist empire does the same to Armenians, that’s just one of those things. Feels kinds commie though.

Can you quote the ad hominems or did you make that up?

I see that having to back things up only extends to me and not you.

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian political ideology emphasizing extreme nationalism, a strong central state, militarism, and the subordination of individual rights to the nation’s perceived unity and strength, often led by a dictator. It emerged in early 20th-century Europe.

Sorry that you can’t make communism and fascism interchangeable.

You can’t even defend the system based on It’s own merit. You can only declare other, select systems, to be worse. Try and defend capitalism on it’s own merit. Dont claim things from the passage of time or things that could easily have happened under any economic system like “medicine existing.”

Yes, the death there was represented by the wage theft of the ruling capitalist oligarchs.

Of course, the only options are to be ruled over by capitalist oligarchs or be in a slave state/no technology or literal kings instead of metaphorical ones. Nice one!

I might have a larger percent of the overall Total money but that doesn’t matter if money stops mattering

You pretending to be a billionaire? Also, I’m not sure the argument you’re making because it seems to argue my point better than it does yours.

False, the gap between rich and poor has never been bigger in all of human history.

People can hate both. For example, we can hate both Musk for being a democracy hating piece of shit AND the system that enabled him and his like to buy an election. Using a blanket term like that catches all within said game, just to be clear

For sure and what always get deliberately left out of the productivity metric is that, wrapped up in those figures, we include how much money has to be paid out to lazy landlords and workshy shareholders in order to get an hours work from a British person.

Essentially, the financial obesity of the super wealthy is crushing everyone below them and stifling productivity, ruining the productivity metric.

So, not an anarchist at all then.

I see what you mean, in terms of democracy being a problem capitalism is trying to solve and, also, that the rich and powerful will never allow us to simply vote away their ill-gotten wealth and power.

I don’t think that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try though or just lament that we were born too late though.

If enough people wanted to, we could change things very quickly. I don’t see why that would mean we would have to have those all of those things, let alone for an extended period. Really, you’re rationalising a status quo bias.

Your mad scrambling to not back down over a very silly statement is getting boring now. The fact that you genuinely think that there’s literally nothing Germany could ever do to be rid of American soldiers, if they wanted to, is just bizzare and has no basis in reality.

Why wasn’t West Germany invited until six years later?

Because of WW2. You’ve heard of that one right? Sheer desperation and very little thought going on here.

If they wanted them gone bad enough, they could starve them out. I’m not sure how you’ve convinced yourself that isn’t a possible option for them, if pushed far enough. I’m not saying they will but the idea that they couldn’t is just ridiculous.

Nato was formed in 1949 which was before the korea war and was always about preventing soviet aggression. No amount of pretending otherwise will change that. Britain and America had already occupied Germany after ww2 and that didn’t officially end until 1955. I get it, you don’t like nato but you’re not doing you side any favours here.
