    Authoritarians - whether tankies, or fascists, all produce the same results. We’ve got the fascist type right now in charge in the US.

      The US’s bourgeois “democracy”, genocided an entire continent, and committed countless atrocities across the globe.

      The “authoritarian” label never gets levelled at the US, great britain, france, or other imperialist powers who carved up the global south and bled it for hundreds of years. It only gets used against their enemies, who dared rise up and fought back against colonialism.

      Even fascism is far less effective than bourgeois parliamentarism at killing millions of innocent people. The nazi’s failed to accomplish in eastern europe, what the US successfully carried out and its liberal democracy is still carrying out in north america.

        10 million people die every year because it is not profitable to feed them or give them medicine. Capitalist wealth comes from the blood and sweat of everyone else.

      No, lmao. Socialists and fascists are entirely different, economies run with public property as the principle aspect are entirely different from economies run with private ownership as the principle aspect. Anti-communists that equate the fascists with the socialists implicilty hand the power to the fascists by demonizing the only real alternative.

      Very unserious and deeply ahistorical. If you can see a parallel between the USSR’s end and the end of, say, Nazi Germany or Pinochet’s Chile, let alone the US and China rn, you have been watching too many infographics show and not been reading nearly enough.

      It’s a good idea to check the community first… For example, this is the memes community on lemmy.ml. definitely worth appreciating a bit of self aware humor here.

      It’s honestly a good parody of TPUSA

    Danm, I’m checking myself into the burn ward currently. I wish I could up my social credit score making memes like this 😉.

        To a degree, paying off loans in full actually reduces your credit score. Credit score is purely a score of how juicy you are to lendors. Lendors don’t like people who pay off loans in full because that means you’re not paying them anymore.

        To increase your credit score, take on more debt that you can pay off and pay it dutifully every month.

        (This is not financial advice)

        Look, the hospital is going to put me in enough debt that I’m going to have to give them one (or two) kidneys if I don’t want them to end up with my house. No time to pay back any loans right now.
