Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I vaguely remember a user debunking this claim but I cannot find that comment and I don’t remember what post it was on.

Capitalism doesn't even work on paper or demonstrably in reality.

Oh it works. Just not for the vast majority of people.

Not even then. Even if you look at the billionaires in their doomsday bunkers, their food supply will break down as well at some point after the rest of humanity succumbs to the climate crisis or the ongoing mass extinction event. It is impossible to decouple themselves from the fate of the working class, and the design of their lives is a delusion. Capitalism, no matter how you attempt to modify, reduce, or extend it, is inherently unsustainable in the long run

Sam Bankman Fried wants to buy Nauru to set it up as a doomsday island for his buddies. Not very smart seeing as how it’s probably gonna get hit VERY hard by Climate Change

Are you sure he’s not just building an underwater bunker to escape the feds?

"They talk about the failures of socialism, well where is the success of capitalism in Asia, Africa, and Latin America?"
