Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Not all Republicans are bad.
Wrong triple Trumpers are demons pure and simple.
Capitalism is ok with regulation.
Wrong the system is inherently flawed and feeds into humanities worst impulses.
Capitalism is not directly the problem
Unregulated capitalism is
Nay unregulated system is bad. If you think communism is great, ask people from back then how much fun the purges were, the forced labor, the gulags, etc.
Put fucking wealth caps in place already. Nobody can have a net worth over a million, the rest to tax. THAT makes a difference, that will actually change the world
Putting any other unregulated system in place is just replacing one turd with another, and we've done that a thousand times with no success
Capitalism, like it or not, is the strongest system to generate wealth. The real problem is that we let that wealth just go to a few. Put fucking Wealth caps in place.
You just listed several things related to Authoritarianism, and called them communist
I never said communism is great. I don't know what the solution is, but capitalism isn't it. Just like I don't know the solution to the US voting problem is, but a two party system isn't it.
