@GiancarloSopo @KestrelArts Primarily for the same reason I wouldn't want a white man to play Genghis Khan.

@KestrelArts Lupita is one of the greatest actresses in the world.
Why wouldn't you want her in a film?
English

If you're a conservative—not to be confused with a reactionary grifter—the main question about Nolan's Odyssey that should concern you is whether the film is faithful to Homer's moral vision of homecoming. That's it. Everything else makes for a dumber conservatism.

@Revenant443379 @AlextheYounga @Devon_Eriksen_ I think it's you who hasn't read Marx, because he's pretty clear about abolishing things like private property. "The theory of the Communists may be summed up in the single sentence: Abolition of private property." Labor unions generally aren't.
English

@WordandWitness @AlextheYounga @Devon_Eriksen_ You haven't read marx then. He is pretty clear about collective bargaining.
English

"I hope the secret police don't kick in my door tonight."
"I hope there's some bread left when I get to the front of the line."
"I hope the commissar doesn't rape my wife."
"I hope this nagging chest cough doesn't require antibiotics that I don't have the vouchers for."
"I hope I don't get accused of harboring bourgeois counterrevolutionary sentiments."
"I hope there isn't another purge."
"I hope I can save up enough to bribe the local Party bloc supervisor for a better job posting."
"I hope no one decides to name me as a accomplice to stop the torture."
"I hope the power stays on tonight."
"I hope things will be better some day."

“most important part of being a communist is hope”

@historyinmemes "[Insert other wall anchor type here] is superior! This one sucks!" That wall anchor you like so much doesn't exist without Fischer's invention.
English

This is the person who invented the plug that goes into the wall and secures the screw. His name is Artur Fischer, from Germany. The plug was invented in 1958. He also invented the flash that synchronizes the capture of the image. He has 1,100 patents, more than Thomas Edison's with 7. He died in 2016.

@Revenant443379 @AlextheYounga @Devon_Eriksen_ Having read Marx, no, labor unions aren't Marxist, because the means of production hasn't been seized. And no, there are no "reasonable proponents" of Communism.
English

@WordandWitness @AlextheYounga @Devon_Eriksen_ Okay so many labor unions are or have been explicitly Marxist. Communism does not inherently proscribe a government at all.
If you define communism by whether or not it calls for the immediate seizing of all means by force, you will obviously exclude its reasonable proponents.
English

@Revenant443379 @AlextheYounga @Devon_Eriksen_ Labor unions aren't inherently communist, as the workers haven't stolen the owners supplies, materials, and production facilities.
English

@WordandWitness @AlextheYounga @Devon_Eriksen_ What about Guatamala under Jacobo Arbenz? Bolivia under Torres? Thomas Sankara in Burkina Faso? Fred Hampton? American labor unions?
I think you may just be defining communism as oppressive state control and using that definition itself as evidence.

@Ken_FiveSolas Not a bad list at all. The only thing I'd even remotely possibly change is Wilt Chamberlain for KAJ

@wpgchrish I was thinking about how seminaries prepare men for the pastorate, but not their wives.
English

@WordandWitness Ohhh... see, I was being facetious and partly serious.
English

@Revenant443379 @AlextheYounga @Devon_Eriksen_ Cuba, Cambodia, China, etc, have all required dictators to oppress their people to enforce communism.
English

@Revenant443379 @AlextheYounga @Devon_Eriksen_ Because *literally* every communist country has been like that. The enforcement of communism demands a Stalin-esque dictator.
English

@yurmum68 @Devon_Eriksen_ Literally none of that is capitalism.
English

@Devon_Eriksen_ Meanwhile, capitalism:
"I hope the secret police don't arrest me for posting memes"
"I hope that the 3rd-world immigrants didn't buy all the bread yet"
"I hope the landlord doesn't fuck my wife"
"I hope this nagging chest won't require basic healthcare, which I can't afford"
English

@AlextheYounga @Devon_Eriksen_ See that's better, thanks.
I hate stalinism to be clear I just also like optimal sourcing.
