Whether you’re a troll (it’s 2024, grow up) or someone whose brain is literal mush, do the world a favor and cut your internet access…

Here’s a crazy idea: don’t fucking do any of that. What benefit is there to doing it in the first place?

It’s obviously not based on good intentions… how can you be this naïve? If a conservative says “but think of the children”, you know fully well whatever they’re proposing is not for the wellbeing of children.

The fact you think some old white englishmen created the partition of power tells us a lot about your level of education.

Says the balding neckbeard living in Brexit-land.

You mean the impressions of having lived in a dictatorship which discarded the idea of progressing towards communism? How is that relevant?

Funny how that’s a fallacy, and there have been countless largely communist organizations of human labor over history, which lasted just as long as capitalist society.

It has about as much relevance as the behavior of any other mammal, circling back to my comment about rats.

You’re a mammal, a rat is a mammal - should we just consider you the same as a rat?

Is the US socialist because nVidia is a public company, therefore the shares are owned by the public? […] The ownership of the company is shared, so it must be socialism, right? I’d say no, because it’s not shared evenly.

How did you mess up this badly? A “public company” [sic, the correct term is “publicly traded company”] is a regular private company where the owners are hundreds or even thousands of individuals. A publicly owned company is one where every single citizen owns the company simply by being alive or every single worker owns the company simply by working there.

What if a single individual owns a single “mean” of production, but everything else is owned by the state

I don’t even understand what you mean by this…

Modern economies are mixes of socialism and capitalism. The people (through the government) own certain things, and individuals own other things.

No, they’re not, and this shows a very serious hole in your knowledge of economic and social systems. While, informally, it’s sometimes said to be the case, that’s strictly an oversimplification to communicate a different idea. Countries like the US simply use a government-assisted capitalist model. Places like the Nordic countries have a more transitional system, but are ultimately still just capitalist.

There will always be broken people with pathologies like sociopathy or narcissism that wouldn’t agree […]

And dismissing their way of perceiving the world is a choice which we make, not an objective mandate or imperative. We do it because the benefits to us (“normal people”) seem to outweight the loses.

[…] at least if they had the rights and freedoms to express themselves and the education to understand and not be brainwashed

And how do you determine who falls in this category? Again, by a set of parameters which we’ve chosen.

[…] nonsensical since it destroys meaning itself […]

Which is a judgement call you’ve externalized, again not an objective reality. You have chosen to believe that meaning is important, that self-destruction is bad. There’s nothing in the universe that inherently holds this as being true. Whether one person or one billion people choose to believe something as true has no bearing on whether or not it is actually true.

You cannot argue for the elimination of meaning without using meaning itself, and after the fact it would have shown that your arguments were meaningless

You needn’t argue for the elimination of meaning, because meaning isn’t a substance present in reality - it’s a value we ascribe to things and thoughts.

The silliest thing is that even YHWH was once but one of the Israelites’ many gods. He just slowly ate away at their pantheon until there was nothing left but anger and jealousy.

And who exactly can be trusted as the centralized guide for human morality?

There’s beauty in the wings of a butterfly. Will that stop climate change, poverty, war and violence?

I’m going to declare that positioning oneself against western civilization as if a moral guardian, yet embracing cancerous regimes like NK, Chinese dictatorship or Russian oligarchic dictatorship, is the hallmark of a moron that is working against Marxist interests.

They’re not entirely wrong… Quite a bit of the division comes from pre-modern events and decisions.

Non sequitur, doesn’t even relate remotely to the discussion. At least try to get basic, grade-school level education on philosophy before trying to pretend you know something.

If by “core” you mean “civilized world”, yes.

As usual, mods remove replies calling attention to discussion manipulation by a specific nationality mentioned in the post.

Now, here’s the kicker: the brazilian rightwing, which contains actual (veiled) nazis and other jew-hating groups, are siding with Israel on this matter. The jokes write themselves.
