What a terrible graphic. I have no artistic skills but even I could do better than that.
This is funny how close it seems to me.
Just from the absolute basic like 8th grade deffinition of government systems I thought "gee that communism one actually seems like it makes a lot of sense but that's clearly just what edgy teenagers say for attention, there's gotta be a downside I'm not seeing"
And then everything I read about the downsides of communism was stuff like "people are greedy so they'll missuse the system tonget more money and power, which is why we made a system that just encourages that behavior"
The propoganda that communism was an unserious form of government had already subconsciously worked it's way in when I was like 13, fortunately all the following arguments about why capitalism was better were pretty obviously bullshit even back then.
my reaction when someone says this: SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP
That's the internal reaction but it's funny to watch them get defensive when you say "wow I'm not like that that's crazy you would willingly admit your a selfish asshole and assume everybody else is just as bad"
Well, until you get off the ground, capitalists keep killing your friends
that's what got me to, but i never made the conclusion that a system that encourages that behavior is good or better. i don't think i even acknowledged that aspect, i just decided that the world sucks
