Lol, that’s because the mods of said threads already had to delete all the bullshit they posted once they “accidentally found this on all” and then descent on it like locusts (but they’re totally not brigading!!!1!)

Here’s one of their mods:

Or maybe strike the part where you said „hate“ because you made that up, and instead add the opium epidemic, homelessness crisis, and rampant gun violence, which all contribute to the issue that public transport is much less pleasant than in other places.

No, they said they don’t like public transport…

I don’t like the US at all.

FTFY. Public transport is not like that in other places.

Yes Inquisitor, this heathen right here.

This is not debatable. Cheese on top. While the patty is still on the grill, so the cheese can actually melt.

I wouldn’t read too much into that, evolutionary psychology is a pseudoscience: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_evolutionary_psychology

Psychology is already a field full of rough concepts, bad statistics, and low certainties, we mostly have no clue why we’re doing things right now. Adding millions of years and unprovable speculation surely doesn’t help.

This right here, that’s the point. You’re welcome.

Yes, it was a „election poster“ for the 1934 „elections“, and the building is the Palazzo Braschi, where the fascist party had their HQ.

The „SI“ all over the poster is Italian for yes, since the „choice“ you had in this „election“ was this: yes or no… (They were already in power at the time, so that was no real election.)

Miau! Mio! Miau! Mio!

They basically did that.

What people call „Rhine“ is a heavily straightened and channelized artificial water road.

Especially in the 19th century they cut off many loops and bends to make it more accessible for ships, to make the land useable and to get rid of flooding (narrator: „it didn’t work“):

Compared to other countries, yes. And that’s not even comparing it to the US, which would be like kicking someone lying on the ground.

Try riding a train in rural France, outside the 5 TGV lines, for instance, and you’ll pray for Deutsche Bahn. Ever been to the UK?

But we could have much better PT if Germany weren’t the world’s greatest car exporter by far and the ministry of traffic deep in the pockets of automobile makers, that’s true as well.

Well, it certainly beats how it was before, but there isn’t less traffic now – they just put it in a tunnel.

Xreeching

So, just to let you know before I block you utter <bleep>, I was reading Marx when you were just a wet spot, and I actually do happen to „like“ him. But funny that you only now come quoting him, after I handed you half of the exact quote you’re giving. But I’m the one scouring Wikipedia 😂

That’s also not what I said, that Marxism is the one and only true communism.

But when people refer to base or true communism, the answer is just one.

🥱

And the fact that you don’t consider communism partly an economic system is baffling

It’s rather baffling that you, considering orthodox Marxism „true communism“, would think that. What kind of „economic system“ did Marx promote? And where do I find that in the Manifest?

Are you referring to central planning? That’s a feature of Soviet style communism, it was invented at the beginning of the 20th century.

As a matter of fact, Marx actually had little to say about how a post-capitalist society should actually look like, besides some commonplace quotes like „production organized on the basis of common ownership by the nation of all means of production“, which is neither original nor chiefly communist.

describe a full featured system that covered it all

Yeah, and do you know what the system Marx wrote about was? It was capitalist society. Marx was an analyst.

If you knew what Marx actually wrote and thought, you’d find that he was heavily influenced by classic economists like Adam Smith and was rather fond of free trade (as were his peers).

Also you’re completely wrong about:

You can’t apply communist economic system principles to the capitalist market.

Again, you would need to specify what exactly you mean, but there’s not much that hasn‘t existed short of taking full control of the market. Pre-neoliberal Europe was quite heavily invested in state owned companies and production, France had for most of the post-war era what can be classified as centrally planned economy.

You on the other hand put on a great show of that infighting.

Another mistake you make: I’m not infighting. I’m merely calling out the bullshit you hand out as „ELI5“, because quite frankly you haven’t got the faintest clue about what you call „base or true communism“ in the first place.

G‘day.
