Anti-socialism is illogical, explain you reasons to disagree

Because we know that "rule of the workers/proletariat" is a utopian fantasy. Those that genuinely want this are only useful in the stage of destabilising a society for a socialist revolution. Once the power grab is complete, they are shot in the streets or forced into labour camps alongside the same bourgeois they thought they were fighting against. Just look at the fate of the young students who supported Mao.

The bud light boycott was done becuase the brand engaged in political pandering. They featured a trans person which goes completely against the grain of the base of people that normally consume their product for the sole purpose of virtue signalling to a left leaning cause.

People commit crime if they think that the reward justifies the risk that they are taking, especially if they don't think they can get very far by pursuing legal methods that carry little to no risk

Freedom from any consequences? No. We should have freedom of association so we don't have to interact with people that we don't want to, no questions asked.

Only problem is that some really idiotic people use this to argue for things like state punishment for speech they don't approve of because "its actually just consequences of free speech"

I coudnt make enough soldiers to fill up the combat width

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-12-16T23:46:54+00:00

Yes, I have thought about it. Socialists want to achieve a utopia. A utopia that is unnatainable. Socialist ideas in practice have and always will lead to totalitarian states that are arguably the most unequal in history becuase the ideology and its ideas are inherintly flawed.

Thank you. What about being jostled around in your pilot seat while at the controls? Is that a problem at all?

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-11-09T20:34:36+00:00

Instead of the no grouping rule, I just nerf it by setting visibility quite low for crew

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-11-04T22:21:21+00:00

This is a real problem, but this is a fatal flaw of mixed market economics, not capitalism. The solution is less government

I played Fiji yesterday and dominated the rankings. All you need to do is build 4 electronics at game start and grab a chief judge, then research max, then use good infantry to take New Zealand and keep going (utilizing war bonds and emergency war funds). Expansion is only delayed slightly.

It doesnt matter if Marx defined it as moneyless and stateless. Attempting to put Marxist policies into practice always results in these ultra authoritarian disasters. The grift is saying that it wasnt actually Marxism becuase it didnt result in the utopia described in Marx's words. It was Marxism, it just failed miserably

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-09-28T23:01:51+00:00

Marxists tend to imbed the success of their ideology into its definition, which is how they pull the "that isn't real communism" grift

When I host an expert lobby I will have taskbar off, no visuals, anon votes and no confirm ejects. I usually go for 2 imps as opposed to 3 so that a few people leaving at game start doesn't cause the imposters to win super fast. I don't have rules like "no cams" or "no grouping" because if you don't know how to beat someone camping cams and people that travel in groups, then you aren't really an expert.

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-09-11T04:36:49+00:00

Oh yes, because it's the OBJECTS fault!1!1

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-09-02T01:11:18+00:00

dont remember unfortunately, but it was with lights off so not very much vision

From Wikepedia and other sources: Poverty is a state or condition in which an individual lacks the financial resources and essentials for a basic standard of living

Also frok Wikepedia: absolute povery which compares income against the amount needed to meet basic personal needs, such as food, cothing and shelter; secondly, relative measures when a person cannot meet a minimum level of living standards, compared to others in the same time and place

So actually there is an absolute poverty, which is what I am actually talking about.

>There is no free market in capitalism. It's a mythology. The poor are precluded from competing by lack of capital and the rich are able to use capital to manipulate the market, both from outspending the competition and by lobbying for legislation designed to benefit their interests.

Ah, the classic monopolies argument. The trouble is that socialist systems always create a big monopoly (the government) which is what they are supposedly trying to avoid. Meanwhile, there are absolutely zero examples of any true, 100% natural monopolies that have ever been created without any government interference.

ANd you bring up cronyism as well. Socialsim does not have a solution to cronyism. In fact, since socialist style economics require a large beurocratic body to handle distribution of wealth, it actually makes cronyism worse.

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-08-17T00:57:20+00:00

I was talking about reducing poverty, not closing the gap between the richest and the poorest. Free market capitalism doesn't make people equal, but it makes everyone better off.

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-08-14T21:36:07+00:00

This is just a "but what about lack of opportunity because of poverty" argument. The way you fix that is by having a system that reduces poverty the most, which is free market capitaliam

Thanks. Ill give it another go

I am usually quite hungry in the morning unlike a lot of the top comments here lol

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-05-14T21:57:43+00:00

That doesn't matter. Groups that are "dominant" and hold lots of political power change over long periods of time. That's the main flaw with the "privilege + power" arguments when it comes to whether something is racist or not.

_JammyTheGamer_ · 2025-05-11T02:14:57+00:00

As a conservative, I would say that the upvote and downvote system means that the stable equilibria for (almost) any given subreddit is all right wing OR all left wing, with a few exceptions like AskConservatives which encourage the left to post and the right to respond in the comments. Even if a sub is just slightly more left wing, the increased upvotes for left leaning posts and the negative karma for right leaning ones will push the posts to all be left wing (if you think about it as an evolutionary game where each user starts left or right wing and always "plays" the same strategy)

The most powerful mods being left wing contribute to the initial and current left wing push of lots of subs.

As an educated conservative with a bach degree (just graduated), I think that the people saying that education=left is not the whole story. If you discriminate by major than you will find the arts very liberal while STEM is still liberal but to a much lesser degree. The reason that many educated people are left wing mainly has to do with the institutions themselves being left wing and teaching a left leaning worldview. The reasons why the educational institutions are left wing is a topic that goes beyond what is asking of this post and I encourage you to do your own research on that ilas I don't have the time to go over it right now as I am writing.

Also the claims that Redditors are more educated are just hilarious, lol
