      It takes stunning amounts of historical illiteracy for people to believe that capitalism is a beneficial system for humanity. Most people who promote capitalism have absolutely no idea what the actual effects of this system are.

        This is made even worse when one of the go-to arguments against communists is that we don’t know history, because if we did we’d know about the 100 gorillion vuvuzela no food etc. and hate it.
