      The rich don’t give up power easily, but they do steal words and concepts in order to undermine them and keep doing what they’ve always done. Your society never got rid of the rich and powerful, and you called it socialism anyway. That’s your problem.

        Yeah just like capitalism/merchant guilds didn’t actually boot out the aristocracy. It shook things up a bit, but they hung on by doing a rebrand.

          “Everyone who disagrees with me is not human”

          I diagnose you with idealism, the (stupid) belief that reality is shaped by human consensus.

      Have you lived in a socialist or communist country? I have

      Which country and what year?

      Betting you’re about to make it obvious to everyone that your “experience with socialism” is gonna be experience with post-socialist Neoliberal shock therapy.

          Sure you weren’t.

          Ok, go ahead and tell us all about how the government controls everything in those socialist countries so we can have a good laugh.

              So the communist government had communist labor policy?

              That’s the big boogey man?

      Let me guess, you’re from Mexico and 15 years old, and want to tell me about the horrors of living under socialism.

Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

  • Personal appearance (“You’re fat”, “You’re ugly”)
  • Posts with little-to-no context
  • Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
  • Dick jokes, “Yo mama”, “No, you” type responses and other low effort insults
  • “Your values are bad” without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong (“I believe in capitalism” - “Well, then you must be evil” or “Fuck you you ignorant asshole”)

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.
