I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.

    So your response to why would workers have no disputes is because pollution?

      Well the idea that no workers would ever have any disputes was your contribution to the discussion, not a claim I ever made. Of course they would have disputes, and those disputes would be dealt with democratically. You like democracy, I assume?

      My point in bringing up climate change is that people like to bring up the current system as a working model. But it doesn’t work at all. If we continue doing things the way we are we are cooked.

        How many times has diplomacy ever solved a dispute? Munich 1938 is a great example on why they usually only delay the inevitable

          Presumably it works some of the time. My country doesn’t descend into war every time there’s an election.

          Diplomacy is like an oxygen supply: You only notice it when it fails. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t generally work.

              You mean besides the decades the US and USSR didn’t blow the entire world to pieces or even enter direct conflict, which would likely have killed millions more than the proxy wars that occurred with diplomatic intervention? I’m sorry, I just can’t take anyone who truly thinks that diplomacy is always useless seriously. It strongly suggests they’ve never read a history book.

                  There are going to be multiple factors in any international relations situation. I’m sorry you don’t understand that.

                    Yeah, and the probability of nuclear annihilation is a hell of a factor to prevent war

          I mean, do you have a genuinely better alternative than a democracy with some rules to prevent ogliarchys and protect citizens rights?

            That’s definitely not the same as having no private property

            If someone hates what you said they’re just stupid
