If you're feeling left out it's probably because you defend billionaires who would mince you into fertilizer

Imagine participating in society lmaoo
Sure, I take my family on vacations via airlines run by capitalists who fly airplanes built by capitalists. I like to sit in a bar that is privately owned by capitalists and chit chat over a beer that was brewed, bottled and distributed by capitalists.
Sure, I’m missing out on all the socializing that communists have time for when they are waiting in bread lines. But hey you can’t have everything.
I live in a capitalist society. The shelves are well stocked with multiple brands of affordable toilet paper that I can buy with a stable currency.
If you live in some commie shithole that can’t keep shelves stocked let alone food on the table I can see why you might think that.
You realize wet wipes are made by capitalists…
Athletes foot treatment, toe nail clippers and beds… All things that capitalist societies have in abundance.
Baby powder also made by capitalists. Freedom to travel… first one you mentioned that isn’t directly capitalist but surprisingly most communist countries don’t allow the free movement of their citizens. There are usually walls built to keep them from migrating to capitalist societies.
You are of course free to emigrate to Cuba or Venezuela at any time if you prefer communism. I mean there are tons of boats full of Americans refugees setting sail from Miami to Cuba every day…
This whole thread was hillarious.
Unless you are poor of course. Then you should just die I guess. Truly something worth protecting.
Eat the rich my people!
Oh okay they're trolling, I get it
Person is already dead inside. They "have a family" but are acting like a teenager - speaks for itself...
"they're acting like a teenager" and "speaks for itself" in the same post. 😬
Thanks for calling me on the shoddy rhetoric. The person I was replying to claims to have a family while themselves providing a typical teenage retort, thereby failing to act maturely, which is what one would expect from a decent parent. Any better? Still too ad hominem?
who said anything about ad hominems? or shoddy rhetoric? you're calling them a teenager while using the phrase "speaks for itself", which is a pretty immature phrase. And then you dress up your language for the reply to me to sound more mature? sounds like someone who's stuck in adolescence and pining for "adulthood" to me.

There's nothing wrong with the phrase "speaks for itself". It's a very common expression.
Not for someone trying to sound like an adult. an intelligent adult knows that no one really knows much of anything and searches for the answers instead of just giving up and saying "meh, guess it's self evident and speaks for itself". it's pretty cocky and immature to have that kind of attitude. "says who" you ask? guess it just speaks for itself. 🤷♀️
