Anyway, some individuals need to die so that the overall GDP of the nation doesn't get worse.

    Individualism is when everybody is dependent on working for a corporation to survive, and the more dependent they are the more individualisticer it is.

    The difference between capitalism and my pussy is that capitalism is based on individualism, while my pussy is a collectivist space

    Under individualist capitalism, individuals have the right to unintentionally sacrifice themselves to the gods 'COVID' and 'GDP', so that the line go up for the good of the collective.

    I was calling out some fasc on reddit and he said something along the lines that "democrat party is the party of marxism".

    I laughed at him and told him he has no idea what marxism even is if he can honestly say that, and with that ignorance has no opinion worth listening to. That pissed him off and he was like "I...I know what it means, it means everyone is equal" and I told him he was just wrong.

    There was a post on here that talked about how when arguing with a fasc/neonazi/etc type individual. The goal isn't to change the other party but make third parties see how dumb the second party looks.

      yeah, ive had that argument too, but that person really said "equality" like its a bad thing???

      I also had an argument once where someone said "The left doesn't believe in science, just like the far right! Because the left thinks everyone is equal, but not everyone is exactly the same!" so yeah its def not about changing their mind because there isn't anything up there

    Capitalism is based on individualism and socialism is based.

    The Dry Boys really hit it on the head last episode in saying that capitalism is selfish, not individualistic. It's not a unique point but it's one that needs to be said way more often.
