Exactly, capitalism ends up being just a handful of monopolies owned by the oligarchs as opposed to state owned companies owned by the public.

The part a lot of people don’t seem to understand is that capitalism is a dynamic system that evolves over time. My favorite illustration of this is the game of monopoly, everyone one starts with the exact same opportunity, and at the end all the capital will be in the hands of a single player through the mechanics of the game. That’s precisely what we see happening with capitalism in real life. Competition, which is the engine of the system, ensures that some companies win and grow, while others lose. As companies become bigger, they gain brand recognition, leverage economies of scale, and so on, making it unprofitable to try and compete with them.

Lemmy’s pretty lively. I definitely find it’s a lot better than Mastodon for discussion since it has threads. I tend to use Mastodon as a news feed, but Lemmy as a place to talk to people.

Didn’t Stalin murder a couple of people in the name of communism, maybe not the best image to associate with
Counter-cointer point, Stalin was a murderous peice of shit who should be condemned to eternity for his atrocities against humanity. Anyone that thinks otherwise for some inconceivable reason needs to step outside and snort some fuckin grass for being such a self-centered dumbass. Some of yall need to visit an active war zone or two, actually see with your own fucking eyes the violent destruction, visceral death, and utter despair that evil fucks like Stalin create.
Your comment demonstrates infantile understanding of history and its lessons. Following the revolution, the Soviet Union faced a dire situation marked by economic collapse, civil war, and external threats from western powers. Stalin’s leadership during this critical period allowed the USSR to rapidly industrialize, transforming an agrarian economy into a global power capable of defending itself. Stalin’s Five-Year Plans were what allowed USSR to withstand the nazi invasion. This industrial might was crucial in turning the tide of the war, saving millions of lives, and liberating Europe. The only evil fucks here are the ones who want to rewrite history.

What exactly are they supposed to learn? You haven’t actually presented any argument or reason, you’ve just gotten really really performativly agree at the idea of people believing differently to you
What I have learned here is that I’m having a discussion with an ignoramus who is a victim of the Dunning-Kruger effect.
You sound very confident in your grasp of history for someone who got it from watching TV or reading from airport bookstores.
Thank you for contributing the same shit we hear from literal nazis from nazi germany
One should never rever Stalin or any authoritarian.
🥱
Stalin literally saved the world from the nazis so maybe you should take a step back and evaluate who your friends are
