Anyway, capitalism kills 18 million people a year and has been responsible for genocides all over the world for the past 600 years. Why doesn’t anyone ever ask capitalists to admit THEY’RE wrong?

How does capitalism kill 18 million people? How about the hundreds of millions alive now because of the technological and medical advances it and NOT communism has created. Have to do better than that!

It kills them through starvation/dehydration while food/water is abundant, preventable disease when healthcare is available, exposure when there’s housing available. Hoarding. And that’s not even including the many millions that have died to protect the interests of capitalists.

To attribute ANY scientific advances to “capitalism” or “communism” is completely absurd. NEITHER of those have anything to do with the advancement of science, which has progressed in every kind of society.

2. No surplus of food and capital means no development and a nation one step away from famine.

Achieving a surplus of food does not require capitalism, and never did.

2. Capitalism is more productive. If it wasn't why would Chinese communists allow it in their country? Why take the risk?

1. Capitalism is not inherently more productive, market-socialist orgs (co-ops) usually produce more per manhour 2. We produce too much as is, a focus on overproduction is unwarranted 3. It’s easier to control citizens & trade with capitalist countries when you’re capitalist

1. Just not true. Socialist and Communist systems are always less productive. 2. I thought people were starving, needed food/resources? 3. Competition makes efficient! As an individual, company or nation. Apart from resources communist/socialist have nothing worth buying.

1. Based on what? 2. Yes, they’re starving because they’re not ALLOWED to have the food that exists. We produce far, FAR more food than we could all possibly eat. 3. I’m still pretty sure that only works short-term, but market socialism is a thing

2. So we share food with the whole planet? Ok, who pays to grow and transport this food? Who gets priority if their isn't enough to go around? Does the West get anything in return. Like an end to migration or restrictions on African birthrates?

Yeah sure why not Taxes would be the easiest way, I’d assume. There’s far more than enough to go around right now, why worry about that before we’ve started getting it around? And yeah, we get computer chip material
