Very carefully.

Or Russian
Fuckin tankies
I can't wait until you can block entire instances at a user level in the web interface because defederating from lemmygrad and hexbear takes care of 99% of the pro authoritarian shit.
You can do that on kbin.
I just don't like Kbins interface tbh, I have an account there but it goes unused. Not saying it's a worse platform or anything, just not my personal preference.
Communist countries and capitalist countries tried to sabotage each other for the whole cold war. Capitalism won, because for a variety of reasons, a capitalist economy works better to advance both general well being and innovation in general, as well as represents a system far less prone to systemic corruption than communism.
What? What capitalist told you that?
Does it strike you as strange that the economic system built around rewarding people for greed and wealth accumulation, Capitalism, would somehow encourage less corruption? Surely they'd be the type more susceptible to it?
Lol cope more
Communism killed itself, which is good because it has an almost 100% track record of turning into dictatorship.
(Capitalism is working on killing itself but hasn't quite finished the job yet)
The USA embargoed the shit out of communist countries, sent CIA spies to destabilize their government and sabotaged them. Are you forgetting the Vietnam war and the countless wars that the USA waged on South America? They fucked Cuba hard and Venezuela and Ecuador and… But sure, it was communism itself… That is what the decades long brainwashing propaganda the CIA has been using in their Red Scare tactic to keep the population from ever wanting to demand communism.
As per my previous message
lol

Sounds kind of silly here. Capitalist governments specifically fight to prevent communism from taking hold. The question is do they turn into dictatorships on their own, or do they turn into dictatorships because outside entities are pushing them into more desperate levels. All governments when they are being threatened by another nation turn authoritarian.
I don't think anyones arguing outside nations didn't do major actions towards sabotaging every attempted communist society. To me that's a bit like saying homosexuality is bad because of the high rate of suicide among the LGBT. Ignoring of course that it's not being LGBT that makes you suicidal, but the actions of people on them.
Except the Soviet Union was already a dictatorship, as was Cuba etc.
Sweden was almost like a "good communist" country in the eighties, (heavily socialist democratic) but no communist country seems to want democracy so inevitably like all other forms of governances it turns into a dictatorship.
Capitalism should be authoritarianism and bottom text should be "why doesn't communication work?".

This is a cope lmao
Why?
@CyberGhost
For one, you did the meme completely wrong. While I appreciate the concession that Capitalism does kill inferior systems and ideologies like Communism, the man sitting on that chair should be labeled something else (like a group of people, economy, etc) for the meme to work.
In any case, Communism is terrible and you're delusional to think that it's superior to Capitalism.
If Capitalism can kill Communism so easily, then perhaps it's time to give up on that ideology.
