    We kinda need something like socialism instead of the broken capitalism but Stalin is the total(itarian) opposite

      Right? The fuck is this shit?

      Capitalism helped the economy grow to a point where scarcity is no longer an issue. I agree that now we need to reign it in and work on our distribution systems, but idolizing Stalin? Whoa…

    The problem is not capitalism. The problem is how some entities, whether abstract or fully identified, cheat capitalism for their own benefit. And that’s not an exclusive problem to capitalism. Communism had (and has) that problem too. No system is free of cheaters.

    I hope socialism will win, but without these motherfuckers or their ML “comrades”. I do reject marxism-leninism and all of similar ideologies because they failed, and also because I don’t want to be oppressed and then told to my face that it’s better than being oppressed by CEOs.
