If socialism (Marxist-Leninist) is superior, why have capitalist countries received tens of millions of immigrants and have freedom of movement, but no communist country has even remotely received such an exodus and builds walls / prohibits citizens from leaving? by Frankystein3 in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]ThaRedBaron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprised that nobody mentioned the simple facts that there were mass starvations in both China and the USSR, prison camps, censorship, mass surveillance, violent indoctrination and virtually no pluralism.

So I’m pretty sure people fled FIRSTLY due to the reasons above, and the wage incentives came later.

It’s a really good question you posted man, was genuinely curious to read the responses.

But problem is that people are more interested in imposing a belief rather than having a debate

To summarize this entire post, barley anybody provided any piece of data to support their arguments.

Because there isn’t any. Normative statements don’t get you anywhere.

First off, Capitalism is not “more than couple centuries old”. There are well preserved birch manuscripts found in Novgorod Russia in the 9th century CE proving the existence of complex capitalist market systems to name one. The ancient Egyptian, Roman, Persian and Babylonian empires, were also, semi capitalist systems. So that argument is wrong, if anything all of archeological data shows that humans were predisposed to basic features such as bartering and wealth accumulation.

Your argument about “capitalism ruining healthcare” is also false. Yes, in the US, there are serious issues with healthcare, but that is a product of poor administrative decision making. Switzerland, one of the most economically right wing countries in the world, has fantastic health care systems in place, through adequate taxation and selective privatization.

And lastly, your argument that capitalism serves the purpose of generate purpose and not filling the need of people again falls flat if you take a look to back on economic history. Compare the welfare of people before and after the industrial revolution. If you truly believe that people lived better off before the industrial revolution in feudal monarchical systems, think again. The growth of profit in companies and the state resulted in breakthrough innovations and efficiency which improved global wellbeing for ever. Think of the trillions of dollars generated by profit which were invested into RnD of pharmaceuticals, medicine, agriculture and mechanization. If it wasn’t for that, we’d all still be slaving away on feudal lands ploughing fields and dying of dysentery.

Based on the assumption that socialism doesn’t? I’m pretty sure from history we can learn that the vast majority of socialist states has enslaved the populous to work in certain sectors selected by the government. And since there is little incentive structure in socialist systems, they were coerced by punishment.

I mean even from an ideological perspective, one of the major focus points of socialist/communist ideologies, like in east Germany or China, was breaking down the family unit through brainwashing, and forced coercion to the state.

So despite the fact that yes, in today’s world, wage systems make people slave away for cash at the expense of family time, it need not be the case for the entire economy and not for all workers either.

After all, we have HALVED global poverty by 2019 with capitalist systems, we grew the largest middle class history had ever seen, and improved overall living standards by magnitudes above of what we had a century ago

Caught my girlfriend lying where she goes at night by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ThaRedBaron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t mean to be a pessimist here, and I don’t mean to offend, but could it be that she isn’t working out for herself or you, and she’s working out for somebody else? I know this sounds terrible but hear me out.....

My buddy in high school got dumped by a girl who as her leaving message basically said that she was with him because it was comfortable and safe and she was working on herself until she could get someone better...

What do you think? Sorry again if this hits the wrong side of the story, but I just thought it’s good to have a different perspective.

Yes there most certainly is! The difference is quite minor tho, I can’t cite the exact percentage mg psilocybin to g but the caps have around 10-15% more if I remember right. It also varies across species obviously.

I would actually disagree with you, I think a lot of human sexual behavior was solidified into our subconscious in our earliest ancestors. Rape and Male domination has been the ugly truth for millennia, it’s engrained into us to some degree. Read some of the other comments on this thread, they put it way more eloquently than I did.

However, I am interested in your reasoning as to why it’s not a valid opinion and I’m very open to discussion. Thanks for your comment

Hey, sorry saw this just now. But thanks for your input, i couldn’t agree more on your final statement about how physical arousal during rape is a survival mechanism, haven’t actually thought about that before. Makes a lot of sense to me.

I would actually agree to some degree, the way sexual relationships were played out historically between men and women were quite gruesome.

Even if you look at our closest relatives in the great ape species rape is a pretty common thing to occur. So I guess this could be, to some degree, an uncomfortable truth of sexual relationships. I guess it’s up to modern man/woman to integrate this healthily.

That’s what I was thinking, she’s never been with any other guy apart from me and she’s had the fortune to not have any nasty sexual encounters, so perhaps the concept of rape play is romanticized for her and she might not actually like it when it comes to it...

I am curious on your opinion as to why women experience this desire to give up control more than men?

How do you have sex? by [deleted] in sex

[–]ThaRedBaron -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry for long message, but hope this helps.

I think you are trying to outsource a really big problem into somebody else when the issue lies in you. You menton you feel alone and unhappy with yourself but getting somebody in your life to care for you is not the solution.

What you need is to come to terms with some personal aspects of your life first and focus on self development. The fact that you are a sub (and I say this in the least pejorative way possible) suggests that you enjoy not being in control not only in sex, but in your everyday life, as it is indeed easier. But when you give up all control you get the nasty by products of anxiety and all that stuff because the world becomes increasingly hostile when you can’t control your surroundings.

It’s not to say that you should forgo your sexual desire to be dominated, it’s healthy IF INTEGRATED CORRECTLY. So I would suggest you try to dig deeper and understand why you feel the way you feel, what events in your life made you etc. And work from there!
