If you could press a button that would kill 8 billion people, but communism is guaranteed to happen after you press it, would you press the button?

You'll have to ask a tougher question like "If there is a cat trapped in a house with a button that kills 8 billion people when pressed and the only way to avoid the cat stepping on the button is to let it outside, would you do it?"

why yes, hello fellow leftists, we sure love killing random people for no reason and we are definitely the aggressors sus

posadas speech-l

Stalin killed at least twice that many people, so it's a loss that I'm willing to take

I am become Stalin, destroyer of worlds
- I am become Stalin, ~~destroyer~~ devourer of ~~worlds~~ grains

No, also fuck off

I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE MALTHUS

GET OFF THE INTERNET AND STOP TRYING TO CONVINCE PEOPLE TO COMMIT OMNICIDE

Absolutely not, why would you even ask such a ridiculous question

Take your two day old account and fuck all the way off

I don't think there's that many fascists...

Yes. I would push the button. Communism is when you kill lots of people.

Can I kill one person 8 billion times instead?

- Dreaming of Kissinger being thrown down a mine shaft and respawning at the top for eternity.
- Gold Experience Requiem on his ass. Infinite death loop.

This is just posadism but the button is magic instead of the nuke button.

stupid question, eat my entire ass

for future use

Thats all humans lmao

What a stupid question

I think there's enough more than 8 billion humans that a stable population could recover. It'd take a while though.
- Woah I thought the world population was still around 7.something billion. Crazy.
- Yeah we only need something laughably small like 20k people to bounce back or something. I read somewhere we could have a survivable amount of genetic diversity with just 26 unrelated people but idk if that's true.

It doesn't have to be 8 billion at once right? We can keep deleting 8 billion fascists for centuries with that button, after which we will have communism

Effective Altruism, amirite? First, you must merely comit the greatest act of evil possible... after which, utopia awaits for infinite future hypothetical people!

No lol

I'd press it if it killed melon-musk 8 billion times back to back.

Not a goddamn chance. Killing that many people all at once essentially wipes out humanity.

70 million people would still be alive.

they already did it in the 1600s when capitalism was invented

nice

Yes, but not for the communism

But for the lulz

Carl Marks killed like 100 trillion people with only his piss and that still wasn't enough to bring about communism so I don't know why your plan would work

Only if you promise I'll be one of the 8 billion.

Fuck it, why not 9 billion? smuglord

Make it anarchism and I’ll push it twice.

If it was a button press I don't think there would be any sort of the saving the state for transition so in this scenario, I'd assume it would just be some sort of tiny pockets of anarchist societies for whoever remains.

Communism is guaranteed to happen anyway.

Mfw you kill 8 billion people to prevent capitalism from killing 8 billion people, just for early access to communism that would've happened eventually anyway.

:stonks-up:

You would kill billions of people just to make the rest conform to your ideals? Congratulations, you've graduated from communist school and will receive your diploma in the mail shortly.

Notice how the majority of replies are just "no" or something that obviously shows that the question is not taken seriously?

(Yes I get that you may be doing a bit, but I'm kinda bored)
Piss off with your bs, everyone's saying no or treating the question like the joke that it is (unless this is sarcasm, in that case sorry)
good bit, you gottem all cranked up
