    See and I disagree. Musk is a piece of shit yes but he’s merely playing the game better for a large variety of reasons.

    My point being, the game is not the problem. The problem is assholes. This happens in capitalism. It happens in communism. It happens everywhere. The problem is not the system the problem is assholes.

    Adam Smith would be rolling in his grave if he saw what became of capitalism.

        Learn what fascism actually is. It’s not just a synonym for “thing I don’t like”

          Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian political ideology emphasizing extreme nationalism, a strong central state, militarism, and the subordination of individual rights to the nation’s perceived unity and strength, often led by a dictator. It emerged in early 20th-century Europe.

          Sorry that you can’t make communism and fascism interchangeable.

              It just described what they had in the soviet union though…

              Can you name the differences or is it just that it “feels kinda commie” to you?

                No. They didn’t. The USSR wasn’t fascist just because you don’t like it

                  Yes it was, learn what communism is. You can’t just label things you don’t like as communism.

                  Don’t just declare it to be different, grow a spine and demonstrate the difference as you were asked or do one.
