  • Running for office wouldn’t have stopped the CEO from continuing to murder thousands, since the CEO and his shareholders literally spend billions making sure people who would stop them don’t get elected.

    Killing a CEO doesn’t solve anything, another will take his place, and surely he knew that.

    Yeah, this is why adventurism doesn’t really work. The guy’s actions were ineffective at systemic change, however just they may have been.









  • Being heavily devoted to a heavily disproven ideology

    China is the largest economy in the world and has brought nearly a billion people out of poverty. Within a single lifetime, the USSR went from peasant farmers experiencing regular famine to putting people in space. And then capitalism brought back famine in the 90s. Cuba has a longer life expectancy than America.







  • Capitalist doesn’t mean someone who supports capitalism, those people are called liberals, capitalists are people who own significant amounts of capital.

    Typically it’s only used to refer to the big capitalists, your car dealership owners to owner-operator plumbers are small capitalists whose class interests are generally opposed to both workers and big capitalists.

    Less than 1% of the population are big capitalists, and of them I’d support all of them getting rehabilitated once they’re no longer a threat, the death penalty only makes sense against active threats IMO.

    Though China has had some success using the death penalty in cases of gross social murder, such as when a baby formula maker poisoned a dozen babies, several executives were executed, and they haven’t had any baby formula contamination since.


  • Will you be shooting every capitalist in the US?

    Historically socialist states are very pro-rehabilitation, once the former ruling class is not an immediate threat. PuYi for example, the last emperor of China, who’d been a willing puppet of Japan, ended up living his life doing menial jobs such as street sweeper, actor, gardener, and tour guide.

    Nicholas II on the other hand, had white armies fighting just a few hundred miles away and potentially the armies of Europe making him an active threat.
