Agree. Agree. Agree. Agree. Agree. Agree. Agree. Agree.

Nah, Hitler was a socialist, and we saw how that shit turned out (and yeah, I know you're gonna fall back on the "The Nazis weren't REAL socialists because they didn't do it properly" bullshit that you soyboys always do because it's so inconvenient to your bullshit narrative). Also, funny how you're supporting socialism, which is the same thing that the globalist "capitalist powers" you hate so much want: The elites want your precious socialism where they live like kings on top, and everyone else is a serf made to serve them.

You know, there was a major country that adopted your ideology full scale, and once competed with the United States to defeat the ideology of western capitalism. Want to know how that ended for them?

Real capitalism is a free market system where people can put their best efforts in their best skills/abilities and advanced as a people. It encourages creativity, growth, improvement, and development, which is what made the USA the Top Power to begin with.

Competition does a lot more than "Community". And the "evil capitalist system" you're talking about is Globalism, where everything is run by a cabal of elites in power while everyone else suffers (ie Soros, Fauci, Zuckerberg, Dorsey, Biden, Gates, Pelosi, Queen Elizabeth, Obama, the Clintons, Bush, the CCP etc.) which isn't true capitalism at all but a corrupt form of capitalism that's really just neo-socialism (some call it "corporate communism"). And trust me, that's a cabal that's shattering right now as we speak as everyone is turning against them now that their crimes are being exposed (Let's Go Brandon!).

'Nah, Hitler was a socialist, and we saw how that shit turned out (and yeah, I know you're gonna fall back on the "The Nazis weren't REAL socialists because they didn't do it properly" bullshit that you soyboys always do because it's so inconvenient to your bullshit narrative)'.

Demolishing worker unions and strikes isn't generally considered the action of a socialist. Neither is putting socialists and communists in concentration camps. This may come as a surprise to you but Hitler was not egalitarian.

I think I should probably save time by explaining the terms, socialism and capitalism: socialism refers to public ownership of the means of production. Capitalism means private ownership. If you hate socialism so much, you're gonna have a fit when you hear about roads! Publicly owned! Payed for everyone by everyone! And what about other public services like libraries and fire fighters? Such an insult to capitalism! LOL.

All of the folks you mentioned are ultra capitalists. You can't just point at the consequences of hyper capitalism and call it socialism. Mark Zuckerberg leads a prominent capitalist power, Obama and the Clintons loved giving tax cuts to big businesses, and Biden doesn't even support health care for all. Spouting that kind of propaganda makes you sound like the Nazis when they were claiming Jews were planning a communist takeover while also branding them as corporate overlords, as if that's somehow not contradictory. How can you fall for this? These capitalists don't give a damn about us. It's all about profits for them. Capitalists throughout history have tried to divide the working class by getting them to think Jews, communists and foreigners are the enemy instead of actually fighting the capitalists exploiting them. They want to take attention off themselves, so they try to get you to think leftists are somehow to blame for rich folks prospering at the expense of the poor, and they succeeded. As a socialist, I think there should be gains for the working class instead of huge corporations. I think we should all have equal access to free health care, shelter and education. I think those should be recognised as basic rights rather than commodities for big businesses. If everyone were guaranteed access to health care, ordinary working people would be less desperate for money and less likely to pursue low-paid jobs further enriching trillion-dollar companies. As I've said in a previous post, if capitalists could be trusted to use their wealth to help the less well off, you'd think green energy would be easily affordable and accessible. That's not the case since corporations profit so much from fossil fuels. Obesity is as big a problem as it is in the US largely 'cause of how capitalist powers benefit so much from the sugar industry. If capitalism encouraged 'creativity, growth and development', one would think the poor would have convenient access to renewable energy and healthy food. It's not in the interests of capitalists to encourage 'growth, improvement and development'. It's in their interests to maximise as much profit as possible at the expense of the downtrodden, like wealthy slave owners in the nineteenth century. I think John Steinbeck pretty accurately summed up the capitalist fetish Americans have:

"Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires."

Hope that now we're on the same page and that you have a better understanding of socialism and capitalism.

The MCU is going to get the Fantastic Four right for once.

Agree

Nobody understands human nature

Agree

Archer deserves his own movie.

Archer who

Being gay is kinda gay

Agreeish

Deal or No Deal was the most simplistic game show, that did not require any skill!

Agree.

Woody Harrelson was not the right casting choice to play Carnage, simply because he's too old to be a good fit (Cletus Kasady should be like early thirties at most) and didn't tap into the essence of what makes him such a great villain. That, and Carnage was just a huge disappointment in Venom 2 in general.

Agree

Water is wet because water molecules are very cohesive (they like to stick to each other due to hydrogen bonds) and that makes it in fact the wettest thing there is because water sticks to itself more often and more easily than anything else.

Agree!

Twitter is stupid

Disagree. Better than Instagram or Tik Tok IMO.

Kratos is more badass than 616 Thor.

Agree.

We are alone in the Universe.

Disagree. There are too many parts we don't even know a thing about

Between the Remakes of Resident Evil 2 and 3, Mr X was actually the scarier enemy despite being unarmed, just because he tracked you constantly over the whole police station and not just in shorter, more scripted events like Nemesis

Idk, never played that game. But Mr. X does seem scarier.

It is truly impossible to for certain know someone's gender online unless you have been in a video/voice call with them.

Agree, that goes for everything about someone

Dark > light

50/50

Jodie Whittaker has been the worst Doctor Who, from the new series.

Agree

A father who requests a DNA paternity test for his son/daughter should not be denied

Idk man, would have disagreed if it was the 80s india, I still don't agree with it

Facebook is dead

Not even close

The best celebrities keep their politics to themselves.

Agree

One good thing about the (2011) Green Lantern movie was that they never pulled the cop out where Hal was fighting the bad guy, and all of a sudden runs out of power!

I guess. I barely remember that movie though, it was so forgettable.

In hindsight, it's a bit sad to see Americans in the 1980s so heavily in support of Afghanistan against the Soviet Union. No one back then knew we'd be inheriting that nightmare within twenty years.

Agree

Life would be so much better if everyone just told the damn truth

Disagree

The greatest bonding moment between a father and son, is tossing a football/baseball in the back yard.

Disagree, but only slightly. It's that type of activity that is the greatest bonding moment, imo. But it is certainly not limited to playing catch.

CV seems more quiet in the past week or so...

Agree

In America, every day from Halloween to New Years is just a nonstop series of stuff piling up, with the couple of days after Thanksgiving acting as a small break

Agreeish

The CW should cancel every show in the Arrow-Verse and start fresh with new heroes!

Half-Agree. I'd rather The CW just die in general.

If you're an American entertainment company, your top priority should be focused on the domestic market of the US, and if your works become popular abroad, super. But if you try to go global, focusing on Asia and that sweet CCP money, while giving the West the finger you're gonna get burned... like Disney has recently.

Agree

Vincent Price is still the face of Horror!

Agree.

Spider-Man and Daredevil is one of the most underrated dynamic duos in fiction.

Agree

No sex before marriage is a good thing.

Agree

Old Disney movies hold up better than modern movies in general

Agree

Michael Keaton's Batman still holds up today as one of the better performances of both Batman and Bruce Wayne!

Agree! Probably the best balanced portrayal of the two, in terms of making them feel like completely different people. He touched on something neither Bale of Affleck did, he gave a liveliness to Bruce Wayne, hollow (like it should be) but lively, unlike the other two who were just downers and loners.

The MCU is 0 for 5 on their Phase 4 Shows/Movies so far.

hell naw, purple works well with so many colors, specially green.

Are MCU movies overrated?

Not an agree or disagree question, the answer is that all things objective are over and underrated and all things subjective are neither over nor underrated

The prime objective of an antagonist is to cause conflict, not to be an interesting character, so it is a disservice to storytelling to focus more on making a good character over a good antagonist

Agree, but...

The oft overlooked Artist Show off board and the rest of comic-vine (especially the talented writers) should do some collaborations.

Sure.

Home Alone is a classic movie, but it only works in a specific time period, like when it was released in 1990 before modern internet, cell phones and air travel which would've rendered the entire plot solvable within five minutes. As such, any attempt at a modern remake will inevitably fail, just like Disney's latest lazy cash grab.

I Agree

It is easier to make timeless films in virtual worlds that are very detached from the real world. This is one reason for the durability of heroic fantasy or space opera films. Particularly the heroic fantasy which uses codes from the past (middle ages).

Agree

Sherlock Holmes is still considered the greatest detective.

Agree

Country music before and after 2000 are almost different genres

Agree, But I would say there was a change even earlier than that.

Cyborg was a better character when he was half human/half machine,

Oh the change was earlier for certain, it was just obvious by that point. Agree, though

Sequels to TV series are almost always underrated

Agree

Eggnog is delicious!

55 years ago I would have agreed.

People should choose to be vaccinated so they wouldn't have to.

I don't quite understand what you're saying. Vaccination should be a choice, if that's what you're saying than agree. But seeing these Fascist governments (most of them were never duly elected but cheated) attempt to force a vaccine that doesn't work and actually makes COVID skyrocket for their tyrannical vaccine passports (aka social credit), no one should have to take it. That goes back to the Nuremberg Trials after WWII, so if you're saying people should blindly obey than completely disagree.

Hollywood is a total shithole, and what they project in the media doesn't reflect the values of the rest of the country.

Agree it’s crap, disagree that they don’t share the USA’s values as sad as it is

People need to learn how to turn their high beams off at night

Wow dude. Go outside. You're fooling yourself if you think that shithole of neo-communist identity politics reflects the entire population of the US, and not a tiny but loud minority of people.

@lazorguns said:

In my country, the situation is quite complex. If on the one hand there is the right of people to do anything, on the other hand there is the right of other people to receive the care they are due. However, half of the hospital beds are reserved for covid patients, 70% of whom are not vaccinated while the vaccination rate of the population is 80%. The unvaccinated saturate hospitals and prevent people with other illnesses from getting treatment. This is also not an acceptable situation. Government management is bad, there we agree.

I respect you. This is just an exchange of views.
