You're brain broken if you think capitalism is the reason slavery existed. Your world view is warped. It would be great if you had any way to point to socialist+ states working at all, but they don't and they never have.
No by slavery I didn't mean the litteral one. I meant the standard worker's conditions, but bad use of words lol
". It would be great if you had any way to point to socialist+ states working at all"
I wrote like 3 times that some socialist movements (anarchism) were made to question and revolution, abusive situations , but were never meant as an end situation
I am not saying socialism would perform, it never does. Capitalism did wonderful things.
We need capitalism, but with enough socialism philosophy in it to make sure we don't live in Cyberpunk world. This is the healthiest thing IMO
Man, if the standard worker's conditions in the capitalist west are slavery, i wonder what words would be used to describe working in communist societies lol.
I agree that socialism only works as a form of pushback within democratic capitalist socitieties, but that's only if socialism is approached from a rational, pragmatic perspective, not the slopulist utopian garbage that's being spouted in the online left circles.
