yeah the spike during ww3 would be bad but the new great depression would do wonders before ww4

I mean this makes sense, the only people who care less about Palestinians than the IDF is Hamas

dw it’s just iran posturing again, we’ve seen what they’re capable of (flailing about sending drones in every direction) they’re not scary at all

they might be able to rape and torture and genocide their own citizens but outside of that their damage is pretty minimal

Why does everything have to be LLM

Not everything is, it’s just Lemmy is obsessed with them so you’re going to see it come up a lot

It’s almost like the US is goading China into a war

Under a purely capitalist system, those things would be privatized and commodified like they are in the US. You know, that renowned american healthcare and education…

Yes I’m very well aware of the problems of America, you guys literally won’t shut the fuck up about them 😩

I’d argue it represents a bigger problem with democracy than capitalism though, the only reason you don’t have universal healthcare and education is because your countries voters don’t want it

If they did they would have elected representatives who do and implemented it

Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

They sure are! The only problem is you’ve just tried to convince the one person on this forum who doesn’t give a shit about communism

I live in Australia, it’s fuckin amazing,there’s no need for communism here m8

To be clear, it’s never been a reliable source; we learned that in middle school. You take everything written on it with a grain of salt.

My understanding is if you’re not sure use the little numbers next to the quotes that you’re not sure about

But the vast majority of people seem to think the little numbers are just for show or something

welcome to communism 🤣

lol you wish

the worst country in the world is north korea and it’s communist, so you could have it worse

i don’t understand how you went from understanding “you” to mean america and now you’re typing “you” as in you personally ?

obviously you are not the sole reason trump is elected

it is your country that decided that collectively

To me infantising them as if they accidentally fell for republican garbage like they would totally have voted for kamala if not for some reason is just excuses

most countries have right wing groups, we have skynews here in Australia as a right wing propaganda outlet, and plenty of shadow organisations like advance

we also have a bat shit lady pauline hanson running her party to lead australia

just if she gets in don’t expect me to complain about fox news, the internet, capitalism, oligarchs or something

it would simply be what the people of australia wanted

sure, I guess I better start blaming capitalism for all my woes now

This is just blame shifting, you could have voted for Kamala, you voted for Trump, this is not anyone elses fault, nor is it capitalisms which functions perfectly well in hundreds of countries

Then you need 2 things:

1. People to stand up and run as a politician against people like Trump and commit to putting him in jail

2. Have people vote for said person

As opposed to in Iran where you only have 1 option

1. Like it or die

There is nothing stopping America from being similar to NZ/Canada/France/Sweden or insert whatever idealist state you look up to with universal healthcare, gun control etc, you just need people to vote for it

Left Wing Americans are constantly saying that capitalism is the problem because they seem unable or unwilling to talk to their neighbours

lol… all the best countries in the world have capitalism

iran has been calling for things and threatening things for a while now

now does seem like a good opportunity to make good on those threats however it’s starting to appear like iran is the paper tiger we thought all along
