These are wolf packs.
All members of the pack collectively own the land. They hunt together, and resources (i.e. prey) are distributed evenly amonst the pack. The sick and vulnerable, along with the young, are collectively cared for/raised by everyone in the pack.
Sounds closer to communism, don't you agree? Therefore communism in its basic form is indeed the natural order, and capitalism is an unnatural product of human pride and greed.
This lines up perfectly with Marxist teachings, as the first humans are believed to have practiced "primitive communism," a system which is actually not too different from how wolf packs operate.
🚨 TRISTE 💔
À seulement 10 ans, Liberty Hall a mis fin à ses jours après un long combat contre la dépression.
Avant de partir, elle a laissé un mot à sa mère pour s’excuser et lui demander de ne pas s’en vouloir.
@TshiovheG@lapreskription Many things. I was near suicide at a similar age because I was bullied heavily and my family had stupid high expectations of me.
Life is different for everybody. You can never know how someone else thinks. So please don't judge.
This is straight up false.
In China, urban land is owned directly by the state. Suburban and rural land is owned by collectives. No private land ownership exists in China, while it is quite common in Norway. And even though welfare is somewhat less in China than Norway, that doesnt mean the state isn't socialist. And China is improving in that regard as well, so in a couple of years your argument as a whole may be invalidated.
North Korea exists, sure, but it is not thriving like you claim. Most of the population still lives in poverty and the Kim dynasty heavily relies on, guess who? China! It is in fact a testament as to how government mismanagement can ruin socialist economies and give the whole ideology a bad name on the world stage.
@Rewritablee@SlumRNA_Dog Well, describing me using insulting language is considered, well, insulting.
And again, if you're going to insult me instead of provide an actual argument, then you are not worth my time.
Bye.
Native tribes rarely warred just for the sake of conquest. And when they did, it was because their culture promoted it, not because they are naturally/inherently greedy.
Most tribes were in conflict because tribes relied on specific areas of nature that were scarce, like fishing and hunting grounds. Even Marx would agree that conflict is inevitable when resources are scarce.
The difference between then and now is that resources that were once scarce, like food and water, are now quite readily available. But instead of making these resources available to the masses, they are commercialized, given a price for you to use. So many people will still go hungry. And despite having plentiful resources, many capitalist nations still invade and conquer others, just because they want more. That, my friend, is not natural.
TLDR: your point is invalid.
@Rewritablee@SlumRNA_Dog Peronism is not socialism at all, nor does it promote itself as such. It is a populist ideology with *some* socialist characteristics.
This is like saying the Democrat Party in the US is socialist (it isn't, and any Democrat would laugh at you if you said such nonsense).
You are describing the "nuclear family", which is a bourgeois construct based on capital and designed to hoard and pass down wealth rather than give it back to the common people. In this dynamic, women are oppressed and are often forced to marry for financial status and economic stability rather than genuine affection.
Marx said that the family shouldnt be used as a economic unit of exploitation, not that the family should be abolished altogether.
Human nature is the product of the environment someone is raised in.
Grow up in a society that prioritizes greed, exploitation, and competition, then yes, you become greedy, exploitative, and competitive.
On the contrary, grow up in a society that prioritizes equality, community and cooperation, and you pick up on those traits.
The problem is somewhere down the line we were convinced that greed is natural for humans, using it to justify imperialist capitalism, and even using religion (*ahem* Christianity) to back their rhetoric.
@YellowToadCFC@mahomes_arm@SlumRNA_Dog Funny thing is that the Soviet Union collapsed all because they tried to reform their perfect economy to be more capitalist, and they fucked it all up.
That says a lot about the difference between socialism and capitalism. One brings stability, another brings chaos.
