From the bluesky replies: Reply 1: “I wonder how many people realize that Russia stopped being Communist once Lennon and Trotsky died and Stalin's bolsheviks took over.” Reply 2: “No nation has ever been capitalist, socialist or communist. Every nation is a dictatorship, paying a percentage of the population off, threatening the rest into believing they are a bastion of civilization and virtue. When all nations are gone, poverty, sickness and homelessness will be as well.”

I actually choked on my drink while reading this. A statement so truly bizarre that it nearly killed me.

True communism has never been tried… nor capitalism or socialism.

The only thing preventing utopia (me being king and you all being my slaves) is national governments

I mean Craig isnt wrong. Technically if everyone was dead there'd be no nations, poverty, sickness, or homelessness. He's just advocating for human extinction guys.

alt text

fyi this is how you can put alt text (and, separately, a title which is displayed as a tooltip) on images on lemmy.

Thanks, I couldn’t remember how to do it the right way and the lemmy markdown guide is kinda vague so I didn’t get it at the time. I think it should be good now!
