With the cost of living soaring, a decent social life or a carefree existence have become a pipedream for many young people. As a result, the hospitality sector is being hit hard, and the ‘loneliness epidemic’ is intensifying.
Tbf, the approach of capitalism is to make a couple people an obscene amount of money at the expense of destroying the viability of the planet, and already includes serfdom baked in.
Also, other attempts at communism were immediately attacked as “it won’t work,” while the countries saying that implemented policies to ensure that it didn’t.
Its not a perfect solution, and ofc it may have failed on its own. But I’d argue that capitalism as its now maintained means you’ll get your comfort now at the expense of future generations.
That’s not true at all. You’re talking about a specific style of Capitalism that became rampant in the US, and has accelerated the greed, the class warfare, and the expense of future generations. Capitalism as an economic principal works pretty great in places that braces for the greed and corruption, and have guardrails to stop it from taking hold. There are also better social programs in those places.
Communism failed because of its own obtuse idealism which is sophomoric and stupid. If humans were inherently good and worked well together, we would even need economies, DUH.
I always enjoy when someone who has evidently never read anything about what actual socialists think stream-of-consciousness debunks socialism as if these sorts of ideas aren’t literally some of the first things Marx and Engles write about.
I have no idea what you’re thinking, nor do I care. You want to talk about the principle nature of things, here I am. Do not care for your slant on it. Your opinion isn’t special.
Edit: keep downvoting my past unrelated comments lol. Just like a Socialist 😂
