A broken clock is right twice a day, but is still a broken clock.

>muh iPods
Is that still even a thing? I haven't heard the word "iPod" in years. I had assumed that most people just put music on their phones now.

I'm so sick of this fucking meme. Do you think Marxist governments had ANY respect for the environment? The USSR was a heavy polluter, just look at what they did to the Aral Sea.

Just consider how public roads have fragmented the landscape, how fiat currency has pumped up industries, or how regulations make it almost impossible for the public to buy and control natural land.

Idiot

He was good at starving commies

Well thank god neoliberalism has a deep sense of sustainability and conservation built into it.

I use to agree with this, still kind of do in a way, but while Jews have their dirty hands all over Marxism it will turn out nothing but misery for the majority because the majority will never be jew. We are nothing but cattle to the Jews op

I would only like communism if I'm one of the leaders.

Why do old photos always have that same pose for men where they are really bad at hiding a handgun

Wtf, OP? Almost any educated person in Europe would say that Marx had positive and innovative intentions, but that no large scale community has ever succeeded implementing them with a positive long term outcome.

If you are really thinking that most people hate Marx and his ideas, then you are retarded. The world isn't black and white.

Nice argument you fucking idiot

Do you even realize how much money the environment rakes in? Tourism, parks, trails, bird watching... It's a lucrative industry with the governments boot on it's neck.

It's literally not possible for someone to buy a plot of land and restore it without intense paperwork and cooperation with local authorities, thus you are left waiting decades to get their thumb out of their arse.

I have a degree in conservation so I gave first hand accounts of this shit. Want to reintroduce a species? You'll have more than a decade of regulations to fight through. Want to manage your woodland? You'll need a licence to cut trees. Want to sell charcoal from your sustainable woodland? Too much paperwork.

You're another smug idiot

he has distinctive look and his logo is distinctive. that's all it takes for faggots to build a cult of personality around someone. of course his ideas are shit.

>introduce a species
I'll introduce a species of semen to your mouth u pretty faggot

His ideas led to the death of millions of people.
The fact that he's still taken seriously in academia still baffles me.

Marx lived before the USSR/Communist China. He literally had nothing to do with them, Lenin and Mao "adopted" and applied his ideas about proletarian revolution in countries where most people were still living in villages.

You have to view Marx ideas in historical perspective.
The Communist Manifesto was written in 1848, back when child labor was legal, when workers in Europe had to live and work in terrible conditions, worse than people in Bangladeshi sweatshops today.

Back then the words "workers have nothing to lose but his chains" actually made a lot of sense.
Workers were paid just enough to rent a room in an overcrowded house without utilities and buy the cheapest food, hardly anyone of them lived past 45.
Workers didn't have paid vacations.
Workers had no pensions.
Worker had no sick leave or unemployment benefits.
Workers didn't have health insurance or medical care.
Workers didn't have any work safety regulations and no 8-hour work day with mandatory extra payment for OT work.

ALL these perks and benefits came as the result of struggle and concessions. They had to fight for it.

One of the reasons why an American/western European worker could afford middle class lifestyle after WW2 was EXACTLY because Marxist ideas gained more and more popularity after WW1, the great Depression and WW2, so capitalists and Western governments agreed improve the living standards of the masses by paying generous wages and levying bigger taxes on corporate profits (up to 80-90% in the US under FDR, Truman and Eisenhover).

Only when the USSR started to crumble, only then Reagan, Thatcher and other "based [neo]conservatives" started to ship jobs to China and de-industrialize their countries. And paid shills like Neill Ferguson and others saw that as a blessing and triumph of "free market".

But of course reading and analyzing actual history is difficult, it's way easier to just post "commie ball" memes from Jow Forums and screech about bread lines and gulags.

>how public roads have fragmented the landscape

because corporations who will build and maintain private roads will always put the environment first, right? fucking /ancap/tards

>From each according to his ability, to each according to his need
Makes sense until you realize it is other humans deciding what are everyone else's abilities and needs

Wait are you actually arguing that environmental sustainability would be better managed in a completely free market?

No. No he does not lmao

>I have a degree in conservation and I think it should be easier for humans to manage woodlands and reintroduce species
Doubt.

>he says this posting on a fucking computer
What a complete fuck up you are

>a meme sentence is dumb
Wow. Now try reading what he actually wrote

Anyone who doesn't realize how spot-on Marx's analysis of capitalism was really doesn't have any business on this board.

t. not a communist, just someone who actually studies real economic theory and not some libertarian bullshit

Marx was the most influential economist of the modern era.
For better and worse.

yeah he made some good criticisms just like T.Kasisinsky.

But it turns out fixing problems is several orders of magnitude harder than pointing them out. Both had valid points but I'm not buying their solutions.

>implying communists have brains
The Winston Churchill meme is real. If you're not a conservative by the time you're 30 you have no brain.
These fucking idiots don't understand what happens when you take away market forces. They are so fucking stupid that they haven't worked out that in action market forces means you have the ability to buy, the ability to spend and the ability to demand. In a communist government where there are no market forces you don't have any of these things and the state rations everything. Communists will still read that last sentence and won't put 2 and 2 together as to what that actually entails because they are so fucking dumb.
Like look at this asshole right here He has the ability to take action and guide his life in the direction of "less of an environmental impact", which would mean ditching the electronics. But he won't do it because he's fucking pathetic.

ikr lmfao

>spot on analysis
>Marx
You're a special kind of stupid.
Let me guess. When he said money was going to flow into the hands of a few, you thought that was a really profound thing to say?
Because it really isn't. In fact it wasn't a very profound thing to say at all.

>"Marxist" GOVERNMENTS
>The STATE
LOL. At least fucking read Marx you retards

>haha you're not using the precise terminology therefore your entire point about market forces is wrong
Kys

Nah, they're not even close to the right concepts. They heard some shit about communism growing up, have never actually studied the actual philosophy

It's not my fault you haven't bothered to read the theories you're attacking with strawmans and adhoms. I wish the libertards could realize how completely ignorant they come across when they talk about this shit. Let me guess, you like Thomas Sowell?

Stop embarrassing yourself. It's okay to not have anything to contribute to a discussion. You should read this user's post for the briefest of overviews so you won't look so silly.

Some of my favorites include
>only the factory workers will rise
Even at the time of his birth factories weren't as abundant thanks to the industrial revolution
>some magical force will cause all factory workers to rebel
His biggest claim, even if some unnamed hive mind-like force did this, at the time of his birth no less, it would be so little people they'd have just slammed into a brick wall
>humans don't need a profit incentive to progress
This is his best point imo because it flat out ignores thousands of years of history, psychology and simple logic chains
>the Jews were evil and must be dealt with
Honestly? Yea probably.

What a truly pathetic creature you are, to write out all that and forget that you accused me of strawmanning above.
Or is it another case of, do what I say but now what I do? Once again, the stupidity of the Marxist strikes. Seldom does he rise above the level of pond scum.

You're a walking strawman user. You've posted nothing which can be responded to with anything other than insults, just sperging out with your memes and acting like they qualify you to talk about a hugely influential economic thinker whose works you haven't even read.

You have to go back.

The fact that he's ideology is solely materialistic and ignores blood and spirit.
This man has little to nothing to offer when it comes to the economic, political, and spiritual implications of being. read something that is actually relevant instead of wasting your time with a materialist Hegelian.
t. former commie.

The "poor" are better off now than in Marx's time. Living standards for everyone has increased.
The poor have not got poorer.
The middle class has increased, not the lower/working class.
Why are commies incapable of being honest?

That's true, but the whole destroying the planet thing is a bummer

The middle class are the working class too. It's not about how payment, but where one is inserted in the productive system.
This is inevitable. Civilisations are destructive by nature

Muh means of production.
We're not playing your definition game.

Marx was pretty based desu, he was overall a idiot tho.

Sorry that you can't argue without using your own specific definitions, sophist

Economic calculus destroy the Marx. The bright of the libertarians destroyed the pseudo-intelectualism of socialism. You unironically need an IQ above 130 to grasp the concept of the Austrians. That's why the pleb got stuck with Marx.

This will motivate us to invent better stuff, maybe learn how to mine resources in space. People find answers better when everything is on the line

Fuck off. Marxism is inevitable With Technology. Accept it morons. We are doomed to slave for the turdbrains as we bribe them and pray to not get eaten.

Sure, some. His conclusions are nonsense though

Would actually agree, there's a good Hoppe presentation about this

>. In a communist government where there are no market forces you don't have any of these things and the state rations everything.
you know kid, most commies aim for communities without a government/state, in fact thats the goal for almost all commies. so you got a horrible misunderstanding about communism here. demand and supply will still be forces, also trading and privileges. Communism is about freeing humanity from slavery, exploitation and oppression - so every human can live his life under the mantra "to everybody according to his needs, from everybody according to his abilites". culture will bloom again. with modern technology there will be no shortage of whatsoever.

This is why I get angry when people misinterpret communism.
Communism is bad enough when explained properly.

You forgot to mention the abolition of private property, and how personal property is totally different. Let us know more about communism
