Enlighten me then

Actually I’m on fedia - which uses MBin

That article describes basically every EU country. (High taxation, strong employee protections, benefits financed from taxes) You’re conflating socialism with welfare state.

Real socialism existed between 1945 and 1989 in central EU and it was awful system, thankfully it’s forever gone.

Blah blah, bad megacorps this, bad megacorps that… You know that cases of large corporations abusing power are exceptions and not indicative to the majority of the economy?

Except it doesn’t - communism postulates abolishment of money and private property

Honestly the actual socialist states, the Scandinavian ones

Dude, Scandinavian states aren’t socialist, they run on a capitalist economies. Who told you that they are? Where’s the source of these claims?

I once tried explaining to these people that capitalism is natural result of any framework that strongly supports private property and freedom, but it only triggers them into emotional or aggressive responses

Except for the states that voted out the socialist systems in favor of the capitalism and everyone ther now lives in wealth and prosperity unheard during socialism.

If you had to live in socialist or communist state you’d crawl back to the capitalism within months.

Communism itself is broken as fuck and produces authoritarian governments at best, and totalitarian regimes at worst. All these states are universally impoverished and abusing basic human rights

This shit is much wider than just hexbear. The lemmy creator himself is leftist and has pro communist essays on his github

This is atrocious.

If this wealth was legitimately earned by your parents? Yes it is fair. Supporting your children is your sacred right.

The question is: Why should I care?

Maybe they don’t hate the rich?
