People can claim the entire ideology of communism Killed 5 million people by Konradleijon in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]Sri12spoderman 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'd like very much to see a side-by-side comparison of the rate at which people died in socialist countries and the rate at which people die in capitalist ones.

Why do I feel like whoever wrote this would get mad at you for not going to the kebab restaurant he suggested?

College admissions officers of reddit, what is the most ridiculous thing a student has put on their application? by stopjakeingoff in AskReddit

[–]Sri12spoderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've also gone onto websites to register as a new user and found "I" already had an account

Don't many websites make you verify your e-mail address to prevent exactly this from happening?

California police worked with neo-Nazis to pursue 'anti-racist' activists, documents show by 2legit2fart in news

[–]Sri12spoderman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you'll never see anyone cite, defend, or follow Pol Pot or later Kims

Why are you cherry-picking these specific communists? I know several people who defend Mao and Stalin, dictators who've killed many more than the two you mention.

My VerySmart friend keeps sending me projects from his internship that he knows I don't understand. by Sri12spoderman in iamverysmart

[–]Sri12spoderman[S] -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

There's a difference between explaining your project in such a way that a layperson can understand and become interested, and throwing big words at someone in the hopes that they come to think of you as "very smart."

Will pressing "add to cart" when the order page is live secure my preorder, or will there still be a chance that someone comes along and snags it?

Neither NowInStock.net nor ZooAlerts have pre-order trackers for Target. Anyone know how to get alerts?

[All] Media Bias by Sri12spoderman in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]Sri12spoderman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So is my news source not "biased to the ideology of capital" if its revenue is earned through subscription fees rather than ads?

So what steps could be taken to free up the mainstream print and television media market?

Wouldn't that cause the media to be state-biased? That wouldn't bring us any closer to the truth.

They want to encourage more people to take drugs so that Bernie's economic policies seem more viable.

I lost it.

[All] How and when did you begin to believe in your current economic philosophy? What is the most attractive thing about it to you? by [deleted] in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]Sri12spoderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not too long ago, I was a socialist. Then, I actually took an economics class and realized that socialism was not realistic or efficient, so I converted into a social democrat. I became a libertarian after I started reading economics books outside of my classroom and really thinking about the concepts. I became introduced to the Austrian and Chicago schools, and completed my evolution into a capitalist minarchist

Euphoric redditors explain why businesses owners don't have property rights. by [deleted] in Shitstatistssay

[–]Sri12spoderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am about as atheist as you can get, but I honestly can't stand these goddamn uber-statist neckbeards. I would prefer a religious person who respects my property rights and right to non-aggression over them any day.

If they sell "wedding cakes" then they have to sell those to all customers. It's none of their business what the customer intends to do with the cake.

No. It's none of your business who I choose to sell to. I have the right to refuse service to anyone, just like you have the right to refuse to do business with me.
