        Just because I hate communists doesn’t mean I love capitalism.

        It’s almost like there is more than two ways of thinking, you fucking retard

          Three guesses as to what tripped the filter; hint, it’s one of the favorite words of techbro yanqui wannabes.

          You still carry capitalist water; it doesn’t matter what your ignorance thinks you’re doing.

          There’s the first way of thinking where you humiliate yourself and get banned, and the second way of thinking where you don’t realize you’re on a communist instance, you get humiliated, and you get banned.

          If I was in your place I’d have picked the first option because at least it would have let you retain some dignity, but I wouldn’t want to be authoritarian and tell you how to carry yourself.

      Stop cucking for capitalists maybe?

      Why is it that you asshats love trolling on our instance, but when anyone says anything remotely socialist anywhere else, we are instantly “tankies” and get banned.

      The fuck is wrong with you, mentally?

          We will never surrender. We either win, or we die. And don’t think that it stops there. You shall have the next generation to fight, and after the next, the next.

          We have stood against you for over two hundred years, and as long as capital survives, we shall stay with you until your end.

            Jesus son, I hope you are saying this ironically because a part of me thinks you aren’t. What you just said is… embarrassing.

              It’s a paraphrase based on The Lion of the Desert, not that I was expecting a dullard like you to pick up on that; I don’t expect serious discussions from this subcommunity.

              But to put it less dramatically, yes, class struggle shall always be a consequence of capitalism:

              To say that “the worker has an interest in the rapid growth of capital”, means only this: that the more speedily the worker augments the wealth of the capitalist, the larger will be the crumbs which fall to him, the greater will be the number of workers than can be called into existence, the more can the mass of slaves dependent upon capital be increased.

              We have thus seen that even the most favorable situation for the working class, namely, the most rapid growth of capital, however much it may improve the material life of the worker, does not abolish the antagonism between his interests and the interests of the capitalist. Profit and wages remain as before, in inverse proportion.

              If capital grows rapidly, wages may rise, but the profit of capital rises disproportionately faster. The material position of the worker has improved, but at the cost of his social position. The social chasm that separates him from the capitalist has widened.

              Finally, to say that “the most favorable condition for wage-labour is the fastest possible growth of productive capital”, is the same as to say: the quicker the working class multiplies and augments the power inimical to it — the wealth of another which lords over that class — the more favorable will be the conditions under which it will be permitted to toil anew at the multiplication of bourgeois wealth, at the enlargement of the power of capital, content thus to forge for itself the golden chains by which the bourgeoisie drags it in its train.

              (Emphasis added. Source.)

        We’re all communists, comrade.

        Edit: Just for fun, pick your favorite president since Jimmy Carter and explain why, in terms of actual policy, they’re not the other party. For example, why is Biden not a Republican?
