It represents your partial ownership of the company and property

The only way this can be done in a capitalist way, is by distributing exactly one company share for every employee that's not tradeable at all, flattening the hierarchy completely, and making every decision in a direct democratic way.

Obviously the wise and good colonizers, that know what's best for everyone everywhere

While the bright and "civilized" Europeans were in the dark ages, the Middle East took our science and continued it, saving it from disappearing entirely.

You can believe in the barbarian narrative about them if that makes you feel better about your national history, but it's entirely untrue.

It is therapeutic to hear the words of reason at times like these were irrational uneducated "opinions" are flung around more than ever.

World history should be mandatory in every country and tested exhaustively. Kids are able to consume the information, as long as they're not forced to remember the absolutely useless information of it and focus on the actual point of learning history instead.

Of course it's not to the benefit of individual countries for its citizens to be fully educated, especially when their history consists of taking advantage of the whole world and causing way more misery than the one they're accusing others of.

More importantly, people should take the initiative to self educate and read books in their spare time. It's hard and time consuming, but your opinion honestly doesn't matter much when you don't know what the hell you're talking about and yet feel fully confident about it.

Please educate yourself, you're embarrassing yourself and your people.

The US is just as propagandized as Russia and China and it shows.

We have a voteable communist party in my country, it's never going to get elected. People are either dumb as bricks or corrupt, and so is the system. The whole system is hopeless, I don't think we'll ever see real change without seeing violence first.

I agree, but that doesn't seem to be the case sadly..

Maybe you just haven't found interesting people to follow, my content is way different

It's ok, americans don't have healthcare so they can afford to wage wars all over the place

I think they're good books, it's just that they're again and again referred to as "proof that communism was horrible" by people who have not the slightest clue how communism actually was besides what the western governments tell them about it

I abandoned it at some point in the second half. It was getting even more interesting but summer was ending and I no longer had as much time.

Please read history and tell me how often that happens between oppressors and the oppressed. That relationship is broken time and time again by violence, I'm sure you have a ton of examples to give out of the history of your own country as do I.

Go ask the Palestinians if US intervention has been a big misunderstanding and they're actually looking out for them and bringing them democracy like they say

I love how the upvote/downvote rate is almost 1

Western hypocricy never ceases to amaze

Anyone saying that seriously should be the change they wish to see in the world and off themselves, they won't save the world but it will surely be better than before

It's honestly more surprising that they didn't predict them rather than predicting them.

Our economic system is based on bullshit theories that the rich make up to support their system, crashes are inevitable and they're increasingly more destructive each time.

Hopefully we dump them before climate change forces us to do so.

I'd love to show this to people who say "but lazy people will be getting paid for nothing" or "competition is human nature" that capitalists made the fuck up, but it'll probably go over their heads, or they'll conveniently say that the test was not done properly

No need to be an expert.

When I'm working on a project that is mine and has my name on it, and I think that it'll help me or someone else in a meaningful way, I'll happily lose sleep over perfecting it.

When I'm just a cog in a giant faceless machine that wants only to maximize profits, I don't really care what the hell happens with the product as long as I get paid.
