@nochnoy_dozor It is clear that there must be a firm dictatorship of reason. First order of business is an Evangelical pogrom.

@zuki_2024 If that is the case, then its pretty embarassing that they are getting blown to hell by Hezbollah, which isn't even a state army.

After a month of conflict, it's clear that killing Khamenei didn't really accomplish anything highly-respected.com/p/the-khamenei…

Socialism dies the moment you understand basic economics. Every socialist experiment—from the Soviet Union's 66 million deaths to Venezuela's 2,000% inflation—fails because central planners cannot calculate prices without markets.
Ludwig von Mises proved this in 1920: without private property and voluntary exchange, rational economic calculation becomes impossible. You cannot allocate scarce resources efficiently when bureaucrats replace market signals. Cuba's average monthly wage remains $30 while North Koreans starve.
Meanwhile, Hong Kong transformed from fishing village to financial powerhouse through free markets. Property rights create prosperity. Central planning creates poverty. The choice stays yours.

@FreeTalkLive They are both capitalism. The capitalists use the state to further their interests. You are just doing PR for capitalists.

You don't hate capitalism, you hate corporatism.
You look at bailouts, subsidies, and firms that get rich through political access instead of honest competition, and you are right to feel disgusted.
Capitalism lives or dies by voluntary exchange, by serving people well enough that they choose you over someone else.
Corporatism works by fusing business with the state so failure gets cushioned, rivals get fenced out, and consumers get trapped.
In one arrangement, profit follows value. In the other, profit follows influence.
