Ice and snowflakes always seem to go so well with one another.

Was anything about this coincidental?

(Asking ironicaly)

Massachusetts (Boston) also calls them bubblers. Or, “bubblah’s”

I honestly think at this point, anyone still giving this scam money deserves the loss.

As long as they’re only hurting themselves, I’m all for watching stupid people fail miserably.

This meme format will always make me sad.

He said, in his best human voice.

Wait… Disney gave them parvo?

Fair enough…

Should people in your opinion be allowed to freely murder one another without consequence?

I’m just trying to ascertain whether or not you can recognize a bad faith question when you are presented with one. It’s a crucial first step to understand why you have such a fundamental disrespect for people that disagree with your opinions.

My opinion of communism is not misunderstood. Nor does it have anything at all to do with one wanting to be ruled by kings.

I’m done entering bad faith questions in this thread.

Where do you think the OP’s point was borne from?

Fair point and well said.

I was being sarcastic.

Meaning:

Person A thinks capitalism sucks because it has traffic, over saturated consumerism, and healthcare for profit.

Person B thinks that communism has most of those things as well, and makes a point to insinuate that capitalism, while having those problems- is still better than communism when communism has very few examples of actually being any better.

To further explain-

Complaining about something while offering little to remedy the complaint is pointless. Therefore, I simply offered a counter argument that was at least productive.

Oh I’m not clever. Far from it. But I’ve been around here for a while and I see so many people praising communism as if it’s the direct answer in opposition to capitalism.

They both suck. But capitalism sucks in a more tolerable way to me than communism.

And again, OP intended no point other than to say capitalism sucks- while unknowingly exemplifying ALL socioeconomic policy.

Name a country that doesn’t possess any of those problems?

Every shitty neighborhood has that one house that’s juuuuusst a bit less shitty than the rest.

But it’s still shitty.

Look at the OP and imagine this is ANY form of government and the same thing could be said.

Communist countries have neighborhoods. Traffic. Retirement homes….

It’s nonsense. Just because an argument can be made that capitalism sucks doesn’t mean a counter argument can’t be made that any other form of government sucks.

But this is lemmy, where we all see what we want to see, isn’t it?

Imagine that. It’s almost like you get what I’m trying to say.

Constantly trying to inject a topic into a discussion that it doesn’t belong in comes of as far more masturbatory to me. It’s almost like you just learned what it means and you want to talk about it with anyone willing to listen.

You keep thinking I’m going to play this game, don’t you?

Okay. Well. When someone posts about mercantilism, you’re free to discuss it there. But injecting it into a discussion specifically about capitalism vs communism?
