There's "I dislike the greedier side of capitalism and we need some major reforms in practices and taxes" and there's "I'm about as much of a literal communist as possible, capitalism sucks no matter the form." Against the former, it's a stupid comment, but it's sensible in the latter case. It's like the 9/11 conspiracy theory nutballs. If you seriously think the government murdered its citizens part of a grand plot, why are you still here?

You know that some strains of socialism want to eliminate money, right? This is incorrect. What you're thinking of is communism, not socialism. Unless you're considering communism to be a strain of socialism, but that may be incorrectly too. Under socialism you can still have private property and a free market, and individuals are compensated relative to their contributions to the economy. --- proudclad LAYIN DOWN THE SMACK - Error1355 ...

There's many different ideas about how socialism may look like, and no socialist wants private property to continue. You're thinking of personal property. You're right that some socialists call for a market based socialism, though. I mean, this becomes hair-splitting at a certain point, but I think you can be a socialist (mostly social democrat, which is somewhat a modernized subset of socialism) and still be okay with private property. As long as the general or chief means of generating wealth are shared and fair. There's no reason why under socialism you couldn't rent out your own belongings to make money, and you could also have a state monopoly on violence enacted by law-keepers to protect your belongings from, say, arson or theft or the like. This seems to be the same as private property today. The role or need for private property would diminish greatly under socialism, but nothing about it means you couldn't have it. It just wouldn't be allowed to block a worker from getting their fair share from the output of production. Meaning, you can't own a company and pocket profit when a worker is the one who generated it. And if society transitions closer to Star Trek, at some point the concept just becomes deprecated, rather than outlawed. What am I missing here? --- proudclad LAYIN DOWN THE SMACK - Error1355 ...

Oh please. I'm not even a socialist and if you want to talk about people ignoring the flaws in their preferred economic system, capitalism fanboys are the absolute worst. Squall28 posted... How does hating capitalism translate to "we should improve society somewhat." Because most people who criticize capitalism don't completely hate it. That's just more right wing bullshit. We just hate all the inequality, corruption, and other horrible flaws of capitalism and want them to be addressed and corrected. --- https://imgur.com/hslUvRN When I sin I sin real good. ...

We have folks here who support communism, yet have no idea what it entails. My theory is that they can't cut it in our society, so they want a mommy figure to take care of them throughout their entire life. Little do they know communism isn't the utopia they imagine. Im pretty sure nobody actually wants communism. We have already adopted most of the good stuff Karl Marx said. The rest of it is pretty iffy, at least as far as the guidance he laid out in his manifesto. --- proudclad LAYIN DOWN THE SMACK - Error1355 ... Copied to Clipboard!

My mom grew up dirt poor in Jamaica (and I mean that literally, she literally ate dirt sometimes to stave off hunger). Now she's making ~$140k as a lawyer, made a couple thousand dollars off her portfolio so far, and will have a generous pension in about a decade.
