stone cold posted:Ah, yes, Robespierre and Cromwell truly upheld republican ideas. They became authoritarian after the previous republican governments descended into corruption and infighting over petty personal slights. Both situations required a strong, central leaders to curtail the dangerous whims of both the elites and masses. This is why a democracy is the most ineffectual form of government.

Capitalism fails us daily, communism failed hard enough to kill itself, fascism tried to kill everyone until there was no-one left to fail. Comrades, there is but one option left to us. Let us collectively fail ourselves and each other as free individuals.

KazigluBey posted:whataboutism "Whataboutism" is a word that cold warriors invented because they thought it was hilarious to make fun of leftists for criticizing the fact that they lynched black people and treated women like lesser beings. Hoho look at these pinko commies pretending that these things are more important than private property, what losers. It's not a very good look in 2016 in retrospect. Never mind also the fact that these days it's the liberal defenders of capitalism who go on about "what about all the people who died in this famine under communism" every time anyone is unsatisfied with capitalism and wants to discuss socialism as an alternative.

Project & strawman harder, please. Whataboutism is a fine term that describes exactly the kind of rhetorical bullshit that was going on a handful of posts back; nobody was explicitly defending Capitalism in the posts that proceeded this. Hmm yes someone pointed out life in Eastern Europe under the USSR wasn't that great, better point out that life in the West wasn't that great either!

For example: I know, I'm saying that people who buy the foregrip must hate their own cock and balls because it's admitting that want your gun to replace them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FObVW2abE68

This is terrifying and amazing, it's like the city sprawl is sucking the lake dry. I spent a week toodling around Lake Mead on a houseboat in 2011 and it was about 20 feet below "normal" water levels, entire hillsides were bleached and gross. courtesy of Kansas, the shittiest state with the awesomest statehouse art.
