You need to start an argument on your terms, fam, force them to admit why their beliefs are retarded, not constantly apologize for yours.

Human nature is defined based on material conditions.
Price control and nationalization of large industry is not socialism.
Because we live under capitalism.
Voluntary in the sense you will starve to death if you don't take part, and it's a federal crime in the united states to live off the grid.
Not an argument, and profit motive has been the biggest motivator for most wars.
There is more than one school of economic thought.
Explain distinction between private and personal property.

When they say people aren't equal they mean in a biological sense.

This is an easy one


tl;dr: biology != ethics

What are you talking about?

Maybe federal crime was an exaggeration. Being separate from society and being self sustaining is illegal, thus making capitalism not voluntary.

I mean fucking christ even one of these things is provably false via neurology

Utopia is impossible because people always want more.

Basic food, water, shelter, and even internet services could be had for the entire population with only those who wish to work working. Less than 5% of the population would be needed to maintain the system, there would be no more forced serfdom of wageslavery. But this would require lowering the standard of living to early 19th century levels. People are selfish, they won't accept the price of freedom.

Human nature as in how people act on a full, complex level, as in these retards literally think capitalism is part of our biology.

Capitalism is just serfdom but with more brainwashing.

meaningless statement

humans provably have inborn, HERITABLE attitudes and mumbling "m-muh materialism" over and over won't change that

Exactly

Socialism can't work because of the nature of people. That's why we need to improve our understanding of genetic manipulation and create a species based on homo sapiens which are superior to us, and then sterilize all homo sapiens.

A classless society is a pipe dream as biological differences maintain class. By creating an asexual off-branch of humanity which has no variation in outward appearance, has no race, we create the ideal humans, that which we cannot aspire to become.

That's not the point. The "human nature" argument implies that since humans are selfish, an economy based on the equal ownership of industry is somehow impossible. When in fact, workers would fare much better if they collectively owned a factory, rather than them all working for a bourgeois owner who attempts to maximize return for himself. Socialism is best for the people's self-interest.

What?

People are stupid

we don't deny this, we are not postmodernists. Also the opposite is nether as possible. Just cause you have a special combination of chromosomes that give you special autism powers doesn't determine your life in whole
-t some one who understand basic high school biology

poor argument

That's interventionism, not free-market capitalism

...

And these attitudes do not justify capitalism. Retard.

If people are irrational retards, why even have politics? Go be a status quo liberal somewhere else.

Exactly we don't need politics. We need to exert our Will upon the masses. Statism now.

he can't help it
its in his genes :^)

Would you just look at all that non-arguments…
