What’s funny is these tankies are making the whole left look bad and I have to remind myself that these people are a tiny minority of disaducated extremists and not to let them put a bad taste in my mouth for anything socialist. I noticed their existence and rhetoric was pushing me right and now I’m realizing they’re very likely conservative trolls, fascists trying to make the left undersireable. A social democracy is what I look forward to, not licking putin’s aashole.
I once stumbled upon a declassified CIA document about how to squash leftist movements from the inside (I haven’t been able to find it again)…a lot of online communists act just like that document said to.
I agree with your overall sentiment but disagree on them being right wing trolls (which is exactly what the right claims about those who don’t buy every word). There really are people on the left that extreme in real life too and they need to be tuned out. Disagreeing with them doesn’t make you more right leaning either.
Capitalism is the economic equivalent of Nature’s own survival of the fittest.
No one will claim that capitalism is being implemented perfectly, that’s for sure, but the number of communist clowns on Lemmy is absurd. Bunch of 14 year olds trying to be edgy.
do you think capitalism is good or something
It’s far from perfect, but it isn’t the cause of every single issue anyone’s ever had like people on here would have you believe

To the gulag with you, kulak.
Of systems that have been implemented the best systems have been capitalist based systems.
Unironically yes
