OK, great.
Were you here Friday?OK, great.
What is your point in posting this?
I wasn't. Was there a Cooler revolution?Were you here Friday?
Typically, leftists have responded to the accusations levelled at “communism” by discussing the accuracy of the statistics cited and the logic of the arguments proposed. As Chomsky (2016) ably argued, using findings from Amartya Sen, we can apply the same approach of the authors of BBC to conclude that in India the democratic capitalist “experiment” since 1947 has caused more deaths than in the entire history of the “colossal, wholly failed … experiment” of Communism everywhere since 1917: over 100 million deaths by 1979, tens of millions more since, in India alone.
This should put the matter to rest, but we could and should go even further and blame capitalists for all the deaths related to colonialism, imperialism, inter-capitalist wars, famines, and premature deaths due to industrial accidents, workplace negligence, and inadequate healthcare provision in all the countries outside the “Communist Bloc.” When doing this, the figure for the victims of capitalism doubtless ranges to levels that easily dwarf that mythical 100 million. The amount of death traceable to free-market policies is staggering, including such horrors as the wilful poisoning of local inhabitants at Minimata (Japan) and more recently at Flint (Michigan, US), as well as the Bhopal “accident” (India), the worst industrial accident ever. Yet searching for and acquiring all the gruesome information would need years of dedicated study, alongside generous funding. The task would be as monumental as the sheer enormity of capitalist destructiveness (for a more thorough account based on several regional case studies, see Leech 2012).

I'm not going to agree with every tenet of the attached article but here's a quote:
Again, in a perfect world there would be an ever regulated mix of capitalist and socialist ideas/frameworks.
The main driver of government waste and income inequality is greed.No thank you. In a perfect world Central Banks/Governments don’t have total control of the currency. It's the main driver of government waste, income inequality, and etc. Socialism sucks, my friendYou don’t want it.
We're not as flawed as Pugs. Those things are a asthmatic, genetic mistakes.The main driver of government waste and income inequality is greed.
And that, regrettably, is present in any man made undertaking. We really are a flawed species. Probably the most flawed to ever exist on Earth. I'll leave out the platypus.
True. But we did that to them for......We're not as flawed as Pugs. Those things are a asthmatic, genetic mistakes.
I’ll be damned if I’m gonna sit here and let you shit all over Pugs.We're not as flawed as Pugs. Those things are a asthmatic, genetic mistakes.
Not much. Answered hereNo, I wasn't. What did I miss?

It didn't work out well.

Never could figure out why the MTG divorce thread stands and those don’t. The Beta male thread particularly had potential about duties and responsibilities. I had a great post about tandem riding all thought out about that.A shitbombing. Goat dealt with it.
Troll baiting thread subjects damn near always result in food fights. It sets the tone for the thread.Never could figure out why the MTG divorce thread stands and those don’t.

If that was the OP's intent then they're the worst troll on the internet. Can't imagine anyone hoping to start a fight over Marxism. The 1960s called, but no one answered.Troll baiting thread subjects damn near always result in food fights. It sets the tone for the thread.
Because Doc didn't title his thread "MTG's husband filed for divorce because all republicans are hypocrites who hate families."Never could figure out why the MTG divorce thread stands and those don’t.

I never thought food fights were a limiting factor here. Mods are often willing participants. I think the determining factor was the conservative patina.Troll baiting thread subjects damn near always result in food fights. It sets the tone for the thread.

lol. Thank you for saying what Doc was thinking.Because Doc didn't title his thread "MTG's husband filed for divorce because all republicans are hypocrites who hate families."
The thread title you're defending contained ad hominem attacks, something your signature would suggest you abhor. I guess your abhorrence is selective, though, as the targets were people you don't like.Never could figure out why the MTG divorce thread stands and those don’t.

You are correct.

CAPITALISM
We really are the worst.
If we deleted all shit threads there would be almost no discussion here.It was still a sh#t thread and deserved the same treatment as Euro’s.
There is almost no discussion without deleting shit threads.If we deleted all shit threads there would be almost no discussion here.
This is becoming more and more obvious. Evidence exists. It simply hasn’t been turned over….I never thought food fights were a limiting factor here. Mods are often willing participants. I think the determining factor was the conservative patina.

I’ve noticed many deletions while scanning threads. They seem one sided but I am biased. I disagree with pretty much all deletions but you’re certainly allowed to do as you please.
Seems like they're hiding the secret codes from Stoll.
Yes. He snuck free just long enough to confirm what we already knew. Blatant bias. Probably time to shut the board down. Who owns this goofy site? That cavanaugh guy? Might want to reach out to him. Absent that change the board to something else. No more politics. Hell make it a soccer board. Champions league tomorrow.Seems like they're hiding the secret codes from Stoll.
