Because, when you think about it, isn't everyone equally deserving of all the profits rather than compensating those who risked more capital or contributed more?

communism isnt about equal distribution. its "to each according to their needs", thats the whole point, to change the reason we make things from market value to use value.

No. In fact, the opposite.

It's cool to endorse communism in front of people who lost family members to soviet murderocity. I like commune-ism because they have cool red flags with yellow bits and it offends dumb old suburbanites.

The communist flag is a greater symbol of rebellion than the confederate flag could ever be, but its still sucky to show it off when it was a real nasty polity.

I don't think everyone should share the profits but I also think most managers and executives should make much less than everyone else since they're useless. Not sure what that makes me.

Communism turned backwater shithole Russia into a country that could take on nazis in 20 years. Nazis had to spend a lot of resources killing millions of Russians that made them unable to defeat England, giving the US much better odds to roll up the nazis. Therefore, communism works. Just look at the shithole countries that have adopted communism and improved themselves only to gently caress it all away later anyway. Russia: illiterate peasant nation-> first man in space-> 60 year life expectancy. China: illiterate peasant shithole->disposable poo poo factory w/ ICBMs. QED

communism didn't make china into what it is today. deng xiaoping and authoritarian capitalism did that.

Yeah, that's what it's for. Cut up a rich man & divvy him up someone might end up with a bigger piece but now money is flowing again instead of aggregating to some worthless parasite. Communist states develop much quicker than capitalist ones up until a point where you get parasites again. Compare shithole Cuba to shithole Indonesia. Communists win.

Horseshit. The only time Russia was not 50 years behind the developed world was under communism. Under the tzar they were a goddamned comedy of errors and unable to respond intelligently to anything. They were barely able to stand toe to toe with Austria for gently caress's sake.

Heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life under capitalist idealogy seems harsh and alienating. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where the uprising of the proletariat and the fulfillment of Socialism in One Country remain uncertain. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great leader Jugashvili is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor...I am Jugashvili."

any economic system will work "until you get parasites"

non ossified capitalist states can develop pretty fast too, and you have to account for the fact that communist countries are always former shitholes that can get massive growth just by mobilizing resources

someone with archives find that post it was pretty funny how out of touch irl western communists are

communism sucks because waiting a few weeks to get a piece of furniture because there is a waitlist of hundreds of other families or not being able to buy a cool car because someone decided no reasonable person needs anything more than a 90 horsepower shitbox is lame. being compensated for your labor with hard cash that you can spend freely rules
