/r/LateStageCapitalism - Yet more godless, freedom-hating Communists on Reddit

[Oh Long Johnson]

Intersectionalism is at it again. Sex robots have been determined by the internet communists to be anti-feminist and promote rape. source

Isn't AlwaysTryAgain an AngryDM alt? You know, the guy who screamed at his """"girlfriend""" because she wore purple and green socks and was thus a goobergirlie rape Hitler?

It's ironic because those idiots would be the first up against the wall in a revolution. Fat nerds that live in their parents basement aren't very useful to the state

Venezuela is late stage socialism though.

Marxism resonates with many people on a moral basis. "People working together instead of against each other; everybody sharing with everybody; equality; no beggars living in the street while millionaires dine of caviar" -- it's in fact an extension of New Testament morals which have been ingrained in Western culture for 2000 years. It appeals emotionally and feels right and just, so some people decide it is the way to go without any considerations of historical failures or practicality.

To this day, GDR fans point out that while there were far less consumer products available in the GDR, nobody had to starve, nobody lived on the streets, there was no unemployment and a very low crime rate. This is true. Jugendwerkhof Torgau was also true. The GDR was massively unforgiving towards people who refused its blessings. A punk or hippie who actively chose to live as a vagrant subverted the state's fundamental dogma -- that every human being knew nothing greater than working shifts in an aluminum foundry, living in a highrise apartment block and practicing folk dances with the Worker's Folklore Group --, so he had to be re-educated. Methods were brutal.

Margaret Thatcher once remarked that socialists had the problem of running out of other people's money. Not very precise -- because the Eastern-Bloc Nations' state banks could print arbitrary amounts of money. What they did run out of were ways to make people work. As mentioned above, the central dogma was that people would actually love factory work once factories were nationalized. They didn't -- most types of industrial work probably aren't very self-rewarding. In order to make people work quickly and efficiently, you sort of need the carrot and the stick. Capitalism does just that: The carrots are raises for reliable workers, the stick is unemployment. This method of motivation seems to be very efficient, this is likely the main reason capitalism succeeds.

This fact -- that for many jobs, people need to be motivated with a reward/punishment scheme -- rings uncomfortable to many: Another reason why Marxism still has a number of adherents. Wouldn't it be nice if work could be made so pleasant and rewarding that employees are content with working just for the greater good? Well, it is kinda hard to make building roads, cleaning the streets, building cars on an assembly line or growing potatoes sufficiently pleasant and rewarding.

My parents once visited a family in the GDR. After dinner, the family's mother said: "And now for something very special and delicious!" My parents wondered what it could be. What she brought out was a small, dry, shrunken orange. "A very special treat! From Crimea Island."

Star Trek books had an idea. In the novel titled "The Joy Machine" kirk encounter a machine who simulates the pleasure neurons n the work forces brain. The more one worked the more pleasure units they would get.

Not sure I d want society be that way.

It's extremely progressive to bully brown people so impoverished that they're forced out of hunger to farm imaginary currencies on video games, ensuring that they starve to death.

This is a very liberal activity.

Everyone should read the Communist Manifesto. Not because they should agree with it; they shouldn't. But because it explains how so many people got involved with a noxious ideology that did nothing but kill millions of people.

It superficially makes perfect sense. It's very convincing, at least if you don't question its fundamental premise that people are somehow saints and will never abuse positions of power. It's a beautiful dream that led to a monstrous reality.

Naive people who desperately want to be seen as good people. People who cant accept they might have villainous impulses.

In short narcissists

Half the fucking planet. We can't pretend these people don't exist, and you're probably one of them.

This the exact attitude and outlook that is the opposite of a commie tard.

Venezuela being destroyed by socialist policy is late stage capitalism.

The fact I refuse to get a job is also late stage capitalism.

 

[Sissy Galvez]

It’s always someone else’s fault why I’m a failure that posts on reddit including my parents (especially my dad), republicans, and an economic system.

Latestagecpatialism would be funny if they weren’t avoiding the thousands of deaths and poverty in Venezuela created by a socialist dictator.

Millenials hate capitalism now but how are they going to get the latest iPhone, Nikes, or MacBook without it?

Thread resulted in a mess of virtue signaling by attacking each other. Apparently if you think that Class Warfare is important you are a KKK member.

Update, because something fucking hilarious happened.
/r/Neoliberal decided to organize a charity drive to help stop the spread of Malaria in Africa. Naturally, they decided to go get some other subreddits in on it.
Including Late Stage Capitalism.

Spoiler: CHARITY IS RAYCIST

"Give a sufficient sum of money to the third world you say you care so much about, and in exchange, we'll allow you to destroy a group you profess to hate."
"FUCK YOU NAZI WHITE DUDEBRO WE HATE YOU SO MUCH!!!!"
It amazes me how these people are literally given a knife and have their enemy standing with their arms spread wide, and, instead of stabbing them in the heart, choose instead to cut their own nose off and yell about how horrible the other person is being.

LSC would rather that Africans died of malaria than received capitalist charity. Better dead and red to them.

 

[Dirt McGirt]

So what's their idea for fighting malaria? Waxing poetic to the sick Africans about seizing the means of production and that charity is evil?
