    so let’s recap: you said that abuses took place under communism, implying that therefore we cannot ascribe the violence of labor under capitalism to capitalism, or imagine that anything could be otherwise. this is already a nonsequitur, but then the explicit example you provided was shown to be highly spurious, so now you’ve resorted to just begging the question. do you have anything else to contribute to the discussion here or are you just twiddling your thumbs?

      so let’s recap

      Acktually …

      My final point would be this: whether its capitalism, communism, or some other mishmash, if humans are involved and are building the system, someone is gonna get the short end of the stick.

      The problem isn’t the -isms, it’s people.

        That is about the most absurd claims I have heard in a long, long time.

        Does expose that you see other humans as problems instead of as humans.

        Your final point? So far you’ve made none, and you’ve failed to engage with people responding to your argument in good faith. This “point” of yours you’ve already made before, but you’ve failed to engage with the people responding to it.
        Are you always such a little pissbaby?
        Do better, educate yourself

          Are you always such a little pissbaby?

          Yes. You worked it out. Well done.

          Your final point? So far you’ve made none

          So when I wrote “this is my final point”, that didn’t count as a final point? Wow, I didn’t know that it didn’t work that way. Thank you for correcting me.

            Yes because things don’t just become something because you say it. For you to have a final point, you need to make a point. You failed to do so. Hope this helps!

            Thank you for correcting me.

            You’re welcome! Glad to see you’re developing some humility. This is the first step towards not being a dickhead :)
