@roboneko @LukeAlmighty > socialism is when gov does stuff

:facepalm:

@moffintosh @LukeAlmighty @moffintosh @LukeAlmighty no the joke is that their organs are being redistributed or something

@roboneko @LukeAlmighty They're being sold thou? That's more of a commodification than redistribution imo

@moffintosh @roboneko
It literally is though.
Of course, governments do take half to themselves, but the redistribution by gun is the entire base of any socialist system as far as I can see. And I did spend quite a lot of time listening to the socialist rethoric.

@LukeAlmighty @roboneko Ah yes, there's nothing more pro-goverment than arguing for it's complete overthrow and a total restructuring of the economic system, am I right?

@moffintosh @roboneko
The owerthrow rethoric sounds nice, but the socialist action always ends up being: Let's just tax everyone and give it to single moms.

@moffintosh @roboneko
> Ah yes, there's nothing more pro-goverment than arguing for it's complete overthrow and a total restructuring of the economic system.

I agree with all of these points though :D

@LukeAlmighty @roboneko The USSR had a flat icome tax of 10% of I recall correctly

@moffintosh @roboneko
I could accept this point, if Russia wasn't at a western standart of "near 50 percent" by now.

@LukeAlmighty @roboneko Nobody with a functioning brain points at the Russian Federation as a socialist nation, even less as a role model

@moffintosh @LukeAlmighty @roboneko Lenin with laser eyes?

@Hyolobrika @roboneko @LukeAlmighty He's a bit too dead to express an opinion on the RF I fear

@moffintosh @roboneko @LukeAlmighty You shared a meme like that at one point.

@moffintosh @LukeAlmighty @roboneko So I was wondering why you would claim that you were not for totalitarian government 🤔

@Hyolobrika @roboneko @LukeAlmighty ?

@moffintosh @roboneko
Although, yes. USSR used to have MANY wonderful properties I WISH were still here.

@LukeAlmighty @roboneko ?

@moffintosh @roboneko
I am not sure what are you "?" about :D

@LukeAlmighty @roboneko The properties. I have no idea at what you're referring to

@moffintosh @roboneko
My father for instance love to brag about "the right for work".

That is something, that cannot be done without a government companies.

@moffintosh @LukeAlmighty @roboneko Overthrowing *and replacing with a new, possibly more totalitarian government*
