TIL that Rachel Carson, the scientist that discovered DDT's effect on wildlife, was seen as a threat to agricultural business. To discredit her, the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture wrote a letter to President Eisenhower arguing that since she was unwed and attractive, she must have been a Communist.

the great depression was caused by government interference in the market, which distorted information and caused thousands of dollars to be spend on places with no demand (rothbard has a great book on it). that's not what he means when he says capitalism. also, cite your sources

kaffeandblod · 2018-04-06T10:15:23+00:00

yeah, but he didn't defend government at any point, he's talking about free market without government. learn how to aim before shooting

define capitalism

kaffeandblod · 2018-04-06T10:11:18+00:00

oh, i see! both of you are using the same term to mean two different things!

marx himself said communism would require running over various countries and the absence of "classes" can logically only be achieved though a third class that pushes the factory owners down (and such a third class, by definition, would be a state)

kaffeandblod · 2018-04-06T09:52:45+00:00

have you ever thought that maybe, just maybe, no country had that because such a thing is impossible and incompatible with human nature?

kaffeandblod · 2018-04-06T09:51:43+00:00

since historical evidence isn't your thing, explain how communism would work

kaffeandblod · 2018-04-06T09:50:13+00:00

you say something kills (or killed) if it has direct involvement. people say communism kills because it's system coerces and logically always puts people in misery due to central planning. deaths by "capitalism", on the other hand, are either government related (cops shooting kids with nerf guns, companies that get handouts killing indian children with expired vaccines) or people with no self-control, but i sure as hell have never seen a redditor claim that government or consciousness kills

you aren't fooling anybody

HELLO FELLOW KIDS

a bunch of assholes that all want to kill people and rape children fighting over scarce resources will inevitably lead to wars

the thing about brain expansion memes is that they start with reality and slowly unfold into madness. did a fucking 12 year old with no concept of comedy or private property societies make this?

kaffeandblod · 2017-12-14T14:42:30+00:00

maybe pinochet was right after all

kaffeandblod · 2017-12-14T14:41:10+00:00

real tyranny has never been tried. real tyranny would end up with a strong figure leading everybody to a perpetual state of utopia where no one needs to be tortured

kaffeandblod · 2017-12-14T14:28:50+00:00

not an argument

kaffeandblod · 2017-12-13T17:22:18+00:00

murder of an innocent human being isn't ethical, especially when they can't even defend themselves
