in my experience teenagers are communists, socialists, and anarchists. it’s mostly gen Xers and boomers who love capitalism
There is a huge gap between “teenager” and “gen x” 🤣😭😭😭
I left millennials out cause ime we’re fairly evenly split 🤷♀️
Yes, a lot of infighting in our ranks. Some of us even change their minds every now and then.
Being brought up to actually experience some of the benefits from the wealth that capitalism brings and later being economically raped all day by the people who fucked our planet and own all the land in our countries does that to you.
Good point, updated
don’t forget the US-backed Filipino dictator Ferdinand Marcos Sr… he oversaw a borderline ethnic cleansing campaign against moro muslims in mindanao, had thousands tortured and killed and sometimes had their mutilated bodies strewn on public areas(this is what we call salvaging), created an oligarchy that lives on today and, with his wife and children and billions of public funds, was flown out of the country by orders of Reagan when his regime was toppled by the 1986 revolution.
and now his son, who continues to deny his father’s crimes and refuse to return the billions they stole from us, is president.
Thank you! I saw the anti-communist one earlier today and was so sick of seeing the same old iPhone vuvuzela type arguments on here.
The sad part is that people just keep believing these tropes that have been thoroughly debunked at this point, and they just keep regurgitating them completely uncritically. Thankfully, seems that younger people are increasingly starting to question things.
Global South?

You used so many words to say that you’re clueless.

The fact that you’re using ad hominem incorrectly here really underscores my point.

Yeah you did, ad hominem would be me saying you’re wrong because of a personal character trait. I just stated a simple observation about you. Like I said, clueless.

Alternatively you could’ve spent the time to educate yourself instead of making vapid comments on a public forum exposing yourself as an ignoramus.
idk man, the Philippines has been trying capitalism for a while and it only empowered the aristocrats here even more and turned them into oligarchs.
