    What a shock that he uses the old ”what about mud pies tho?” chestnut.

    It’s kind of sad that this is the level of idiocy we’ve been fighting for over 100 years. And they’re still using these dumbfuck arguments.

      I try to think positively about it. Marx’s theory has been around for over a century, and yet no one has been able to successfully disprove it. That means it is a pretty solid scientific theory. The only arguments against it are people literally arguing against straw man ideas or people arguing against things that Marx himself pointed out as stupid on page 1 of capital.

      We were talking about it in the other thread. All of the competent reactionaries and capitalists who won the Cold War are retiring or dying off. What’s left are the people who grew up being true believers.

        Someone wrote here or on lemmygrad: “ These are the failsons and faildaughters in charge of everything in the west. This is why everything is going to shit, their parents and grandparents understood that the working class needed concessions and distractions, but this generation is pure kool-aid drinker. These guys literally don’t even understand the basics of the economic system that they are in charge of.”
