My right wing uncle just yesterday posed this question in reverse oddly enough, it was a jarring conversation, soon ended when I pointed out the plentiful admittions of hateful rhetoric the right have spouted.

His information comes from YouTube personality's and I take great pleasure in researching the shit he regurgitate and showing him my finding with carefully selected source as unbiased as possible. in a way I feel sorry for the working class right winger, misguided, fueled purely by escapism and negative emotions then peddlers with skin in the game wrap them up with crazy notions of patriotism and conspiracy

Buy it for me plz

Equality of opportunity does not work, the richest 1% continue to get richer year over year whilst the poorest get poorer and this isn't a slogan this is a real statistic we can see. Even the middle classes are entitled to less now and the trend will only continue. Then we have inherited wealth, people tend not to work for they're fortune its often inherited.

So if the intention of equality of opportunity is to bring prosperity than its failed the largest percentage of people. Really I think its a way for people to say "well we tried, we gave them the opportunity" and in that way they can sleep at night.

The USSR took place 1922 to 1991 where homelessness fell drastically, literacy bloomed to near 100%, people who'd only heard of electricity suddenly had electricity, 'diets became much better as well as food portions' (this is power phrased from a leaked FBI document which detailed nutrition being better of an american), work was a given thing if someone was of ably body and mind they'd have a consistent job. In truth the USSR worked amazingly at points, especially considering the state it came from, they skipped capitalism and were feudal before the revolution so had no modern infrastructure like farm equipment, industry and others.

The USSR was a messy thing and to understand the full context would take a lot of explaining, inside the politburo there were bad actors for sure but externally the USSR had to deal with Americas mccarthyism and strong arm tactics, setting nukes on the Russian border or training and supplying arms to terror organisation to economically drain the USSR which the damage can be seen current day in the middle east and even in the USA and Russia with the opioid crises.

But the best part is that once the USSR crumbled we'd like to think the victory of capitalism lead to prosperity and liberation of Russia but the standard of living has dropped, social housing is now privately owned and rented at prices most can't afford, the average age has declined in Russia, dietary standards have dropped, domestic abuse risen, education levels fallen.

With your last statement I'm sure the feudalist said the same to early capitalism.

Why would you be apposed to equality of outcome? Don't you think the homeless on the streets deserve a liveable life, or the African Americans a way out of repression, and women should be able to walk home at night with out fear of rape. Then internationally the poorer country's having their resources plundered by the capitalist while the residents have no education or clean water, hospitals, this all allowing the rich to live exceedingly extravagant lives.

I doubt your racist or a Nazi but rather poorly information in socioeconomic and the greater reach capitalism has in devastating lives.

Yea like the brother never inherited the family business, and the brother was sold off to a rich older lady to marry, or the brother for goes university in place of his sister, the brother having a bastard child meant he was ostracized from the family and sent to a Catholic nunnery to learn the ways of god.

Women have historically been repressed through out many culture in history and even to present wealth be damned.

The tables have turned my friend O.o

But seriously I hardly notice this stuff, and females have historically been treated miserably

As a member of the democratic socialist party I often am out speaking to people and for the most part I receive a sincere and accepting response from the regular public, but sometimes I will speak with a working class right winger and they either dont want to know or regurgitate false information usually of the fear mongering verity so I dont think people are put off due to members, not saying it never happens where a member has put someone off but I can't imagine it to be all that regular.

No hospitality is part the service sector, front of house is known as hospitality. Making and serving coffee or selling cloths in our current society adds little to the world other than extraction of wealth, repression of third world country's and the company's that specialise in these sectors are often awful to they're employees.

hospitality stuff.

Converting a class traitor to socialism

My ex that I am not over calling me to come visit and that she misses me then saying that we have a slim chance of getting back together 😭😭😭 and my mother.

Chewing gum if that counts as candy

Mod managers have sadly created a reliance / dependency. Arma and dayz are heavily effected by this 😕

Signed, hopefully the partition gets noticed

Chromiums alright, most people tend to dislike google chrome like myself.

What cunt wrote this

Sounds like primitive communism, its dreamy but wouldn't take much for a few tribes to consolidate power leading to a form of feudalism and class issue between different tribes.

This is something democratic socialism tries to address

This is very true, a knife isn't inherently evil.

Though some systems are more susceptible to manipulation, dictatorships, free market capitalism and feudalism are some of the worst culprit's.

Which is why I believe no system that is conceived by humans will ever be not exploited.

Sadly whilst we occupy the word in clusters of people we must have a system of governess

I agree with your last paragraph in particular, I think if we ever want to have a hope of capitalism, communism, or socialism it starts with teaching people “the cheapest option isn’t the best.”

i am glad you can take something from that, sadly while your doing your part in society it still leave others to be exploited and a few smart consumers wont stop this. capitalism is by design repressive, while it exploits me and you some what the people in Afghanistan, China, South America to name a few beer the true brunt of it. suicide nets around Chinese factories, opium doubling in Afghanistan since us meddling as well as political in stability and South America is treated like a stopping ground for the rich where they'll own holiday homes hotel pricing locals out or run plantations.

i campaign with the socialist party, help with protests and union action, eventually i hope for international reforms.

if you'd be interested in hearing more about socialism id be more than happy to talk.
