Keeping people like this off the road is one of the biggest reasons why every place needs robust public transportation systems.

This is off topic, but threatening the livelihood of hundreds of people to jerk off some investor douches who don’t give a shit about the actual medium is peak sociopathic capitalism.

I didn’t realize communism was when you’re an authoritarian state capitalist system. It’s so interesting that international corporations can exist within a communist system. You’d think there’d be local control of resources and production and minimal social hierarchies, given that those are the core defining traits of the ideology.

So cool to see how you understand the concepts you’re talking about, plenty of people just go by whatever strawman they get raised with.

The lack of humanity in Republican politicians is so frustrating.

Palestinians isn’t modern, zionists and racists just like to ignore that not all Palestinians are Muslim.

Also the median age in Gaza is 18. I wonder why growing up in an open air prison would lead you to fall in with extremists? Guess the Palestinians are just flawed individuals. Nothing to do with right wing Israeli politicians taking direct steps to block peace and continue colonizing Palestinian land.

No this is what results when that doesn’t happen and also what happens when you decide to fund extremists in the 80s and 90s so you can keep the moderate coalition out of power to keep this clusterfuck going.

This happens when capital owners get enough wealth and influence to capture government regulatory agencies. This is what any attempt at capitalism will build to.

At least the no true communism people use the actual definition of the system in their argument. What you’re describing is literally capitalist organizations acting on the incentives inherent to the system.

Since anime was inspired by Disney and other western animation wouldn’t they be called “sushi cartoons” in this naming scheme? The superhero genre is older than the whole anime industry after all.

I like these threads because they’re almost exclusively filled with people trying their best to prove the OP right.

Sticking your head in the sand will do that. Nothing will actually change but it’ll feel like it’s not there.

Controlling actions that cause negative externalities for consumers and citizens I could see but this is about the government punishing them for publishing speech that opposes his agenda.

Modern Russian is a capitalist oligarchy. Your entire position is based on ignorance of how the world functions.
