covers kitchen stuff basically but it's the same story in every industry
Henry Baker
Under communism all laptops will be thinkpads.
Brayden Reyes
How can people endure this?
Hunter Thomas
Also there are still at least decent companies if we are talking about other electronics and stuff.
Alexander Cruz
This is the one subject that makes me so upset I don't like to talk about. Getting fucked by large corporations on big purchases is too much for my little heart to handle
Michael Cook
This is not an issue of capitalism, but rather the main effect of America's changing demographics. You took European genes for granted, when nonwhites are in the production lines and trying to imitate what whites have done, it's impossible for them to create the same quality of goods that their white predecessors did. Sorry that it won't get better, and yes it is frustrating, but this is the way history has gone.

Wtf I love Stalin now
Samuel Lee
I was googling CEO home address today. But I'm too much of a faggot to do anything alone.
Robert Gray
My issue with this kind of thing is that it's so retarded that I don't know if it's sincere or just trolling.

Asher Jones
Also I want to nuke the silicon valley so much.
Tyler Cox
Well it's true op but makes barely any light at all.

There was a time in the 21st century when burgers didn't like capitalism…
Austin Perry
Phoebus cartel makes me extremely suspicious of non-working light bulbs.
Lucas Cooper
But don't you know that all problems will be solved by nuking the middle east instead?
Carter Robinson
Also it's never turned off.
Uptime isn't what kills light bulbs, it's on/off cycles.
Alexander Ortiz
Tell that to my osram bulbs that last not three whole months being turned on just once and never being turned off. Or to the same bulbs that have a 18 hours on 6 hours off cycle. They all last basically the same. +/- 3 months.
Connor Kelly
dude i'm not saying that the lightbulb industry is peachy keen but there might be a problem with your electric system. last time i changed a bulb in my house was a year ago.
Jack Hall
This is very likely. I can't wait to get a proper home and test light bulb longevity.
Now, they don't say this literally. But consumer laws only protect consumers in very certain situations, and it all seems to mostly fit in with what companies want.
Brayden Thomas
Thanks capitalism. Despite all this I managed to keep this piece of shit phone for over 5 years without as much of a scratch on my screen, no protection. But the paint is comming off.
Jonathan Bennett
buy the new PLANNED OBSCELESCENCE PHONE 2017™ BY GOOGLE™ THE BATTERY WILL BE FINE FOR THE FIRST MONTH AND AFTER LESS THAN A YEAR YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY MORE FOR OUR NEW AND IMPROVED PRODUCT, YOU ARE THE CONSUMER, LOOK IT'S SHINY AND HAS OUR BRAND NAME ON THERE!
Jose Flores
I kept my first "smart" phone for about 5 years. By then it had plenty of bite marks (I bit things when I get rage), and my GF gave me a new for my birthday to avoid a heart attack.
Also:
I had a fuckup with insurance for a camera that was stolen, it was plenty years old and they paid out to me "today's estimated worth" instead of "Same tier quality, but now". I'll wager if I lose my 97 years old camera they'd pay back 3 cents, but only if I had the receipt. This is considered fair.
Jackson Butler
Don't get me started on fucking insurance. In my country car insurance is mandatory and that's basically a bunch of money I gift to the insurance company for doing nothing because I never get into accidents. Like I'm not saying it'll never happen, but I'm still paying them even if it doesn't. All that fucking money for a 20 year old car. So much fucking bullshit because people have licenses but can't drive.
Carson Nelson

Elijah Edwards
Sounds like you should have had central planning If anything that's an example of how private production ruins the Commons (like how capital is polluting ground water, polluting the ocean and over fishing)
Cameron Adams
Problem solved. Its almost as if "the commons" mean something that is collectively managed, rather than a free for all.
Thomas Murphy
Aren't you part of everyone? Isn't everyone who isn't doing this and having the pasture ruined by some faggot part of everyone? Doesn't everyone outnumber 1 retard and have the power to make him stop? You stupid fuck?
Isaac Turner
its easier to just fence off your own field you overgraze it you suffer the consequences
and how do you decide who is the central planner?
lol
Lincoln Cox
Mob rule has another name. Democracy.
Samuel Foster
Oh my god the mob is preventing some guy from being an idiot and ruin everybody's stuff? No, they couldn't! T-they wouldn't!
It's easier to burn your fence down because we're a lot and you're just one twat and we need """your""" field.
Anthony Myers
I don't expect you to know about high-minded concepts like "don't be a cunt".
Asher Jackson
Easy, I will be the central planner.
Gavin Phillips
i think we are all suffering because of overcrowding simple thing really: we got a small pond and too many crocodiles and because no one is directly responsible for anything, we just keep overpopulating
yeah we can solve all the problems by saying 'dont be a cunt m8' world problems, are you even trying? lmao world problems REKT
Xavier Thompson
Are you making bad arguments on purpose, or are you trying to be a clown?
Luis Martinez
Enclosure is for your own good. You can work in a factory now :^)
Dominic Powell
Except, you know.
Lets start with you.
John Barnes
Also, the commons had existed in the germanic regions for millenia right up until the start of the industrial revolution, when Adam Smith started preaching "muh tragedy of the commons" and the lords used this as an excuse to privatise the common land and gift it to themselves.
Wyatt Ortiz
No, it's a fence. It's not magic.
Leo Roberts

Aiden Moore

Zachary Lopez
No they aren't
Central planners dont benefit from their position materially, nor is the position permanent. It is an elected position.
Xavier Robinson
lol, you deserved that one buddy
Anthony Ross
thank you based social democracy
Nicholas Adams
nope
once french revolution executed the emperor, napoleon happened once russian revolution executed the tsar, stalin happened etc my point exactly
yeah buddy, how about from now on, everyone gets his own head and his own wall from now on? how about everyone gets some basic fucking property and everyone else fuck off???
here's how "we" should go about it: 1) kill a whole bunch of people, wish i could figure out something better, but i just dont know how 2) now there's enough shit for everyone, at last 3) fence it all off, so once one faggot starts overpopulating/overusing, HE fucking starves instead of all of us
thing with collectivism is, no personal responsibility thing with no personal responsibility is, you keep shitting all over the place but you dont have to deal with any of it
Andrew Bennett
WEW LAD I love laughing at all the retards who come to this board and act big.
Colton Torres
Napolean wasnt a central planner Just because he was a cock and the system was retarded doesnt mean the concept of is is wrong. Current democracy is not democratic or good, but democracy as a concept is.
I dont have my own wall, dickhead. And then some people get slightly better property, have a bit more luck, use their advantage to buy out those with shit luck, and then their children will be rich and the other children will be poor and oh look where we are, its today.
Lets start with you There already is. One person owns the houses of billions. We have enough land to feed the world and more. But small groups of people own it instead of all of us. Thats not how reality works, mate.
WRONG
Austin Nguyen
If you loose the edges you could be a distributist. You should read about the enclosures too.
Good luck with that. I doubt you could even get your mom to go along.
Noah Jackson
You've been told repeatedly that this is bullshit. Try setting fire to a public building and hang around to explain the cops that it was public so there's no responsibility. I'm sure they'll be delighted with your explanations on why being in jail is mob rule. But as a tip, try to think about jail as a fence.
Jace Turner
man i dont want to pick fights with anyone i just think that we are all utterly fucked on the personal responsibility front
i mean those 'muh race' pol fucktards are spooked to the bone retards, no debate about that, but at least they are pushing for at least minimal personal responsibility in the ingroup (no de-generacy, no drugs, lifting, etc)
hope the picture says a thousand words i cant there has to be some sort of 'hol up' mechanism at some point before we overcrowd this one planet we have the soil is less and less arable we probably peaked oil and we have more and more mouths to feed
for fucks sake no politics will help us redistribute 1 bread for every 1000 hungry people
Blake Harris
You are demanding that others be personally responsible for - what? Your benefit? Their benefit? They know well enough what is to their benefit - it being their benefit, it is up to them to decide it. You should mind what is to your benefit alone. But the what about the - group benefit? I don't see why you should be concerned about that. Whichever group acts most beneficial will be successful and that will be that. To care about it beyond - I am of this group and it is in my interest, is nonsensical. But then you see yourself as part of group white. That's great. Go and ask your local white company owner what he will be willing to do for the benefit of - whites. His answer will be the same as that of a black company owner: I am already providing a benefit, I am the job creator after all. Go ahead and kill everyone that doesn't look like you. At the end of the day you will still be pushed to starvation yourself, because it benefits that other guy who - does look like you.
Brayden Lewis
no damnit, let me dumb it down to the most essential level, so you CANT misunderstood me
now this is the autismo extreme version but you should get the point make everyone responsible for himself and instead of 'social injustice nannies' running around and redistributing and enacting laws and activism and all this shit, we just have a peace and quiet for the first time in human history
Connor Peterson
Being fucked on a personal responsibility level is a capitalist goal. "You are what you make yourself, still we will deprive you of proper material conditions, proper education, and proper health. Not only will we do that, but we will tell you that you yourself are responsible for your lot in life. This way we have enough professionals workers to feel special in our embrace, and not enough enlightened workers to oppose us, but rather retarded workers to be distracted by our slightest flick of the wrist."
Lincoln White
That's extremely retarded. People will never stop interacting just because your autism desires it. The four people surrounding your land will divide it up and kill you. Especially if they have 50 children they can arm. Welcome to the human race.
Adrian Sanders
so the only solution for the autismos is force i must amass more force than literally everyone else i will ever see in my whole life got it instead of leaving me the fuck alone they will not leave me the fuck alone all i wanted in this life is to sit in my chair and shout at people passing by 'get off my lawn!!'
So I'm new to this Communism thing, and I have to read more material of course, but I wanted to drop by and say that I made an interesting discovery at work today.
I crossed a red line - I talked Politics with my co-workers by asking them how they felt about Communism. I explained that I'm considering supporting it and that I've only just scratched the surface regarding reading, so to help them understand why I was asking. Turns out, most answers I got were fairly accepting of Communism, one guy even said he'd respect me if I turned out to be a Communi. There were 2 people who said less than positive things, but I think once I become more knowledgeable on the subject I can perhaps convinve them.
Just about everyone at my workplace, including myself, is under 25. I see a real opportunity here, because all of us young people have expressed our strong displeasure with Capitalism, especially because of gripes with the work-cycle, and that's why I thought this thread would be appropriate to post this.

you're the ex Holla Forums from yesterday?
you will find that a lot of people aren't content with their lives and that now that the C word isn't taboo anymore people, especially young'ns, are gonna be more open towards this stuff. just pick your battles because ideology runs deep.

This guy is probably a schizophrenic Holla Forumsack, but I sometimes see a somewhat similar worry echoed here, so I feel I should respond.
Current population trends indicate that global population will plateau at ~10 billion sometime between 2050-2100. Fertility is slowing down in every region, having already dropped to near-replacement almost everywhere other than some parts of Africa or Asia, and has long been below replacement in the 1st-world.
Futile attempts by neoliberals' flailing policies like immigration and urbanization may prolong overpopulation somewhat, but the ultimate conclusion that modern technology has eliminated both the perils and rewards that once incentivized population growth is virtually inevitable.
Cameron Fisher
Strictly speaking I don't need much more than air, water and nutrition, but I sure as hell want more. And I want convenience. Are you some kind of primitivist?

Green parties are and have been, almost in their entirety, quite happy to use advanced technologies to create a sustainable relationship between human civilization on earth and the natural world.
That the environmentalist movement as a whole includes factions like neo-agrarians, primitivists, and VHEM, says nothing about the rest of the movement.
Sebastian Roberts
Ha you can't stop this guy. Tells how guy can be stopped. What the fuck is wrong with you guys, how dare you stop one guy from ruining everything.
Lucas Wright
You realize that collectives are made of individuals right? So the individuals are still responsible? How do you get so dumb that you literally forget what parts of a whole are? Is it a technique to be dumb like this?
