    That will never happen. We created capitalism and globalism. The genie is out of the box and it’s not going back in… not until the planet is destoryed. Just try to enjoy what we have while it lasts.

        Lol, imagine being this unhinged from reality. If your baseless dreams do come to pass and the system does fall apart, it will mean billions dead from famine, disease, and war. Your vision is death and destruction, not salvation.

            I never made that assertion but okay yes, there have been capitalist countries that have collapsed… Also, can you name a communist country that hasn’t collapsed?

              Laos, China, Vietnam, and Cuba come to mind. It’s kind of incredible that anyone would ask such an absurd question seriously.

                Except… None of those are communist countries. They’re all mixed economy countries with varying degrees of private and public corporate infrastructure. And China of all countries lmao. Theyre the most capitalist of that bunch. They only thing they kept from communism was the rampant authoratarianism. Its kind of increble that anyone would make such an absurd statement seriously.

                Maybe you should actually learn what communism is before advocating for it.

                  It’s pretty hilarious that you’re telling me to learn what communism is while evidently having the most superficial understanding possible. All these countries are led by communist parties, and the working class is the class that’s in charge in these countries.

                  You are correct that these countries are in the socialist phase of development where many of the vestigial relations from capitalist society are still present. However, anybody who actually understands communist theory knows that this is a necessary stage. You can’t just take a capitalist society and turn it communist overnight. Especially not in a world that’s dominated by global capitalism.

                  Might want to read some Marx to educate yourself on the subject.

                    It really is like clicking through a dialog tree with these people isn’t it?

      How does the unprecedented sanctions regime on Russia play into your “globalization is unstoppable” hypothesis? It sure looks like the global economy is actually bifurcating into “the US and friends” and “everyone else”.
