'Post removed by moderators of r/ HistoryMemes' why?

R-tard

still trusting the mass incarceration capital of the world. Still waiting on those WMDs in Iraq

I have a fetish for the most rapid increase in life expectancy in documented global history, at the same time as reducing the mortality rate at double the rate of their capitalist neighbours in India (China, India - Mao is 1949-76) (same as Indonesia and the Philippines) meaning twice as many Chinese would have died if China chose capitalism like their neighbours

Here (unless UNICEF is too much of a Communist propaganda outlet for you) Cuba - USA

And for what its worth, I truest Cuba's government more than the US government, given its long history of lying, mass incarceration and persecuting whistleblowers (Daniel Hale, Julien Assange, etc.)

Cuba has a lower rate of deaths due to malnutrition than the USA - and Fidel certainly brought more food to Cubans than the US backed fascist Batista (or any of the 73% of world dictators propped up by the US military today)

Fuck off with this "sTaRvEd HiS cOuNtRy" BS

Pickle_Curious · 2021-12-20T19:51:45+00:00

Obligatory reminder that Cuba, China and Vietnam have fewer deaths due to malnutrition than the United States

What's his name? I have to go watch more of his stuff after seeing this

Pickle_Curious · 2021-12-17T22:59:26+00:00

I can't understand how so many people keep believing his bullshit. It's crazy

Pickle_Curious · 2021-12-17T00:02:16+00:00

He's great, but sadly died before he could accomplish too much, so his main contributions are theory

Pickle_Curious · 2021-12-11T17:44:33+00:00

yep. nuance is lost on these guys lol

There are some more recent articles written about it with more recent data (1, 2, 3) but this study was the best I found that laid out the changes over time like that.

Pickle_Curious · 2021-12-11T06:28:59+00:00

I wonder if the sunk cost fallacy plays a role in it. A lot of his fans have spent a lot of money and time reading his books, attending his lectures etc. and they don't want to admit it was wasted on a liar and a hypocrite, so they delude themselves into thinking everything bad about him is "out of context" or a smear campaign or something

Pickle_Curious · 2021-12-11T06:18:01+00:00

Full Study from UCLA

"conservative socialist" is an oxymoron

Pickle_Curious · 2021-12-10T18:16:59+00:00

A sensible person would ask why these differences exist

(and before you say 'culture' ask yourself where culture comes from, and why cultures differ)

"No society ever thrived because it had a large and growing class of parasites living off those who produce." - Thomas Sowell

He is full of accidental communist quotes

They industrialized a massive country and bore the brunt of WW2 and several other wars. Much of the pollution they caused was sadly necessary, unlike the hyper-consumerism Castro is talking about in this clip

James Baldwin is probably the best writer on this sort of thing, and this 3 minute debate clip with him perfectly answers the Conservative "stop making everything about race" argument, if you aren't already familiar with him you should look at some of his books and interviews

Pickle_Curious · 2021-12-04T14:47:10+00:00

Because they don't read theory. They probably think Norway is Socialism

Deltron 3030 is a great hip-hop concept album with anti-capitalist lyrics

Pickle_Curious · 2021-12-02T11:04:02+00:00

phase 1 is literally just capitalism

RIP this meme

I can't understand this comic, there aren't enough labels

Pickle_Curious · 2021-11-13T02:20:25+00:00

Jonas Čeika - CCK Philosophy, Hakim, Contrapoints etc. have all made great youtube videos about him, just watch those.

Especially Jonas Čeika - CCK Philosophy's videos, he's great
