Communism has been consistently destroyed in "public open debate" for DECADES now- and there's still people screaming, begging for it.

Eventually, actions must take the place of words. How many different ways should you have to explain "communism doesn't work, never has, never will" before you come to terms with "these people are insane, and no matter what I say, no matter how many bodies we show them, they will NEVER get it."?

Not an argument. Communism being terrible doesn't excuse the fact that capitalism is sick and it's destroying our nation and our democracy.

I'm not arguing for or against capitalism. I am however, arguing against communism, and I can comfortably say "capitalism > communism" despite the flaws that you mentioned. For proof, you need only look at the quality of life in places that are or were communist and compare it to places that are capitalist.

There's no comparison. What exactly are you arguing for? You one of those AnCap types?

Marxists don't engage in "open debate" you stupid faggot. Rules for Radicals is their playbook and subversion/deceit is their key tactic IN ALL THINGS.

Marxists don't exist in a vacuum. If you keep picking everyone's pockets with neoliberal crony capitalism, they will continue to grow. If you fix the system and start hanging the neoliberals, no one will listen to the marxists.

Don't dishonestly conflate capitalism with crime, corruption, and regulatory capture with crony capitalism.

Where do you think crime, corruption, regulatory capture, and cronyism came from? Capitalism concentrates wealth until even the government is for sale. When a company has saturated the market, the only way left to grow is via rent seeking. It's called Late Stage Capitalism for a reason.

Men you idiot. It all came from men.

To date there has never been a better system than capitalism. No better system is currently known to mankind.
