  • I’m not necessarily agreeing with the head chopping part on a general basis, but consider this:

    If you become wealthy (which is a nebulous term, but w/e) in this system you automatically gain power over the life of other people, while you yourself break free from being forced into laboring for others. You are not going to spend it all on consumables, so you will likely use it to pay other people to do stuff for you, that you either can’t be bothered to do yourself or are not skilled to do yourself. So you’ll be able to live off of the labor of others, less fortunate. You are extracting value from them, maybe even creating some kind of dependency through the power imbalance.

    TL;DR: Share your wealth or get fucked, parasite ;)

    (and no, extracting value for your personal benefit is not sharing)

    E: So, it’s more of: do you have the means to free yourself from labor, while at the same time you exploit the people that don’t have that freedom, then your wealth becomes a problem and through your wealth you do become a problem for the working class.



  • Oh, suddenly you don’t care? The only thing, that doesn’t make sense then, is you commenting at all. Curiously you do, tho — with vibes-based political commentary. If you’re really so apathetic, may I suggest to you to stfu.

    What I got from your form of verbal maneuvering (lol), tho, is that you are not only apathetic, but also ignorant.


  • That’s all very vague. Be more explicit. Many argue many things.

    What is the ideology you’re hinting at? Communism? What is the body count of communism? Where do you think you’ve got that that narrative from?

    To round out the picture, and because body count seems so decisive, we should include capitalism, right — as fascism, many argue, is a neccessary consequence of imperial capitalism protecting itself in crisis and it’s our current economic ideology and therefore an ongoing, systematic phenomenon?

    What’s the body count of capitalism?

    Many would argue we currently live by an ideology with a body count of double digit millions of excess deaths annually, through poverty & hunger, healthcare inequality, workplace deaths & diseases, environmental & climate deaths, structural violence, and of course war & imperial violence.


  • Not the same thing. Equating the far left and the far right is nonsensical, as horseshoe theory isn’t a real thing. Giving room for such thought only strengthens extreme right positions and is exclusively used to either distract from or downplay far right commentary or elevate liberal/centrist thought as the only acceptable path. It’s interestingly never used by people from the far left themselves.

    Your’s either an ignorant take or one with an agenda, which is it?




  • Obviously. Especially with their reporting on the Palestinian genocide or activism against it. So, so honest. Or the obvious western slant in like everything. Bombing sovereign countries is important and the right thing. Not informing about the extent of rising American facism. And of course, Russia bad, China bad.

    There’s better reporting out there than either Western or Russian mainstream, which both are not there to inform you, but to build narrative. If not consumed carefully, they will make you dumber in their own respective ways.

    So no, Western media is obviously not “obviously way more honest” and you believing and proclaiming that, while not your fault, is on you to inspect, Comrade.
