@Galena @mewmew @sylveon This thread is a indictment of public education. For shame.
Regarding deaths, its all pretty well documented. There is some controversy, but your free decide on your own.

Second, Capitalism, or more specifically, Free Markets are nothing more than private property and voluntary trade/interaction. We've got plenty of documentation on the mass killings of Communist countries to get those staggeringly high death tolls, but regarding claims like "Capitalism has killed more" I've never seen a source. Go find one and I'll read it.
We've got plenty of documentation to make it clear that Capitalism has brought more people out of poverty than anything else in history, though.
Thirdly, nothing about capitalism or free markets prevents a government from being corrupt. Anytime you have a government of any kind, you get corruption. The only grace in this area where Capitalist economies have a boost is that they have less centralized control. That doesn't prevent them from rolling 3rd world governments in south america. Only way to get rid of that is to vastly limit state power.
@sylveon Because its really
"we should make sure everyone has food, clean water, a place to live, maybe healthcare and education too -- by theft and force."
@ebihara oh and another thing
riot defaults to matrix.org or modular.im
which are both new vector
it hides using a non vector instance behind "advanced settings"
at least on mobile
i havent used riot on pc in forever, i tend to use quanternion when i need matrix despite its missing features
@thatbrickster @ebihara oh cool and basically every big project that switched to matrix from irc use modular.im
very nice
they might as well use telegram or slack at that point
like mozilla
why did mozilla switch from irc anyways?
besides them completely neglecting their server of course
@MajorMike2020 is quickly becoming my new favorite fedi user.
How much do you pay per supportive post? I'd like to get in on the action. I think around $1,000 USD is a good start, I'm worth at least that much.
@matrix not all racism is bad. When I was the Mayor of New York City, I was faced with the difficult fact that black people commit more crimes.
Well, I accepted that fact and responded to it accordingly. We arrested hundreds of thousands of delinquent drug users, most of them African American. And you're going to tell me that racism is bad?
US wanted to kill WikiLeaks founder and make it look like accident:
I hate bios, but I hate leaving them empty even more.
She/her preferred, but I don't really care.
Nonbinary Demisexual. Degenerate biscum. Right Libertarian. Extreme misanthrope. I like my boys dressed like girls, and my girls dressed like boys. Traps are the ideal male form, and tomboys are peak female performance. I can't count high enough to measure my IQ, but you could probably count it on one hand.
On all levels except physical, I am a generic white girl.
Hardcore super feminist psyop Satanist.
Flirty, friendly, and warm.
Nerdy, Libertarian, and frequently sarcastic. I should be put in jail. That's what made me statist.
Democratic catboy authoritarian fascist dictator.
You think Christ would eat somebody? He would never do that. I will.
