So you have to spend money to make money and the west is surprised about it, because there wasnt a collapse of the company when it wasn't profitable, like it happens in the US with every investor bailing on the company and worsening the issue. Almost like infrastructure projects are worthwhile investments even if it does not provide short term gains

Out of legitimate curiosity, what are the alleged costs they usually point at?

I like the idea of this picture, but I think that the problem is that many people level criticisms to communism as a religious-like school of thought, and I think this fuels that narrative, that we are dogmatic and preaching it to others, I don't think that is a good way even for us to see ourselves, as preachers of the truth, we are people who ought to be among the proletariat and offer support so we all collectively rise together, and is only engaged with the people among the people that we cant put our thesis to the test, and improve Marxism, we do not preach we act.

I think it's not a good look to say you'll shoot a classmate, even in hypothetical, I think it was better dismissing the hypothetical as nonsense, which it is, answering it with the question, would you condemn your population to violence and hunger? Otherwise yeah it's not wrong to have that stance just think you could go about it a little more gracefully, cause one problem is that when we are THE communist some people know they'll judge communism based on US and the optics of how you went about it might lead them to believe communists are more trigger happy then they are.

Let me see if I get it straight, I have not finished the text yet but I wanna make sure that I'm understanding it right, since I don't understand business speech. But if I got it correctly it says, that those savings do not come from households, so it's either big corporations or the state itself, and they have saved just under the US and EU together, which means, china is spending less on their development, in fact significantly less, and is growing more and more stable than the west. Is that the takeaway of the first part?

So much for the free speech banner of his. Plus murder is more broad than what he says and its quite specific if you did something with the predictable outcome that somebody will die, like shooting an explosive in a residential area, and somebody dies it is murder, just imagine and guy throws a grenade through his bedroom window without looking, and somebody dies, this is murder in the second(I believe) degree, so if someone is shooting at residential areas and kills people it is murder indeed

I wish, as a brazilian I literally feel sick when I look at this shit, is revolting beyond words, see the same folk who ensured the military dictatorship of 68 here, and helped coup against Dilma Russef(current president of the BRICS bank, and former president of brazil) in 2016 claiming they want to LITERALLY rip my country to shreds and divide it as they see fit. It boils my blood comrades it does boil my blood
