Say what you can about communism, but you clearly see that capitalism is so much worse.
Communism lifted an illiterate nation of serfs into an industrial and atomic super power in, like, 50 years.
Which is to say just as bad as capitalism but approximately four times faster.
I don’t think any of the nations who call themselves “communists” can actually be considered communist. Hell, most of them are pretty much dictatorships, which is the farthest you can get from communism.
If were gonna start arguing semantics though, then what is pure capitalism? As even the US has limits on what capitalist shenanigans they draw the lines on. Ie policies like antitrust laws, which are explicitly to prevent monopolies, because while capitalism strive for monopolies, monopolies also usually kill the market so…
The answer is obviously socialism when defined as the government owning or regulating the means of production, meaning just regulation is enough no need to own them.
Communism doesn’t work yet because we can’t seem to plan resources use for large economies as efficiently as organic markets do it.
But unregulated markets just destroy themselves, end up overexpensive enshittified adfests trying to push subpar products to you that won’t last you even the walk home.
Capitalism is like the cancerous form of market economies.
And communism has historically been about as healthy as the vegan diet of a nutritionally uninformed anemic teenager. Its not bad as an idea, but market economies just work better when they’re properly regulated.
I’d definitely argue with you that countries like China aren’t actually communist.
There were 24,849 homicides in 2022.

Almost none of them, if any, likely required a nationwide manhunt.
Not one of them required an escort of 30 police officers plus a helicopter to the courtroom.
As far as I can tell, none of them were charged with terrorism.
And now he’s getting as biased a judge as he could possibly get.
If we’re going to start charging murderers with terrorism, let’s start with the cops.
you people clearly don’t know what you are talking about. “conflict of interest” only happens if it conflicts the interests of billionaires
Justice for Luigi is going to sail away with Judge parker at the helm.
Maybe this is a good thing? I’m not super familiar with american justice system but isn’t his case is mostly betting on jury acquitting or using jury nullification or at least taking him to strong settlement? Having a judge like this would definitely sway the jury in Luigi’s favor.
This judge needs to recuse themselves from the case.
