  • So, what you're actually saying you'd rather live under capitalism because it's not impacting your freedom

    that's wrong, I belive that I have more freedom in (unregulated) capitalism that's not state backed, than in a one party system without democratic principles

    and you don't care about others.

    that's not true, I want others to be as free as I am

    Meanwhile, claiming that western Germany was economically stronger than the USSR is another example of you being divorced from reality.

    you're literally making this up, I sayed that western germany was ALMOST as economicaly strong as the entire ussr, which is true

    It's the same sort of logic people applied to modern Russia comparing its GDP to Italy. Now, it turns out Russian industrial production is higher than all of the west combined.

    first source I found: https://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/compare/Russia/United-States/Industry

    this says something completely different

    This is how capitalism rots people brains, they start thinking imaginary numbers are more important than material reality.

    so at first: you were wrong, but you also were double wrong, because even if russia did produce more than the US there's still the question of what to be made and for whom, russia probably produces more war assets rn, and that isn't necessarily a good thing, since they now can produce less of stuff the people actually need (that statement itself wouldn't be true if the russian economy was growing and they were exporting their war assets, but the opposite is the case, they produce the war assets to burn them on the battlefield and their economy also isn't looking good)

  • Let's imagine China arming and supporting Mexico's opposition parties that align with China.

    if that happend I'd support mexico in it's efforts to ally itself with china (if that's what the mexican people want)

    U.S would go into a fit and invade Mexico instantly. Same has been happening in Ukraine for a decade before the war started.

    you're just proving my point here, Russia is just as bad as the US

    You need to also take in account that Russia has been invaded countless times from western powers.

    russia in it's current form hasn't been invaded, except if you count ukraine, but russia invaded ukraine first

    Russia's geography is also mostly flat plains, making it easy to invade Moscow from the west. Historical context need to be taken to account.

    so I can shoot someone because they have an advantage and COULD hurt me?

  • no, I just think that freedom is more important than defeating capitalism

    I'd rather take my hrt, guns and free speech over a vanguard, sorry

    also see how it has worked in russia, how the soviet union has defeated capitalism and how capitalist western germany was almost economically stronger than the entire ussr (including eastern germany)
