mediocre people are drawn to false promises of relative gain from little to no self improvement

its why empires collapse

a wealthy&stupid (which is intrinsically linked) young generation who have never experienced any suffering, cause their own downfall when they try to radically alter a system, in a way that won't fix anything, just because someone else told them it would

Sounds all nice, good and friendly in theory.
Lolbertarianism even in it's most palatable form (private charities will do a better job at helping people etc.) is an ideology of inequality, and equality sounds good to people who are afraid of failing.

communism:
collectivist thought
your country take care of you
strong national identity
does not tolerate degenerate behavior

capitalism:
the capitalist system is based solely on greed
no money? not my problem
distorted national identity, degenerate behavior
the rich become more rich, the poor become more poor

Middle class people who don't have everything the rich have, so they consider themselves poor. They think that if they take from the rich and spread it out, they will be rich too. What they don't know is, when Communist come into power, the rich flee leaving the middle class as the new rich.

>>71714110
Idleness, poverty, a weak will, and an inflated sense of self. It is the pseudo-intellectual with little money and no moral basis for reasoning that can see the world in such a simple way. As if there is no earning, and happiness is an abundant commodity that can be stolen from some and given to many.

Needless to say these people are typically devoid of real happiness themselves. They find kinship with their socially malformed peers which then continues the cycle of weakness. There is no breaking it once a sense of belonging if found in the idleness that is the communist's existence. Those who can find gratification on sale for cheap will keep going to the same place over and over again.

It's sad, but really these people are by necessity emotionally children. They simply need to be deflected.

This is literally national socialism, not communism. I can tell you haven't red any marx, you dip.

Capitalism and the veneration of the individual brings my greentexted points to the for front, they need only be encouraged and protected. T Hat is why the west is powerful, and why communism is shit.

If the current system is perceived as corrupt and bankrupt both morally and financially, the desire for a strong redistribution grows in the disillusioned masses.

This is often helped by foreign influences that paint the nation as a hellhole, totally unlike the communist paradise of [X]

M8 you're full of shit. Sure, the average wage has gone up. But not as fast as the cost of living. The poor are getting poorer. That they aren't starving on the streets doesn't change this.

Most communists I've come across take pride in being educated and possessing intellect, yet they have no clue how to use it. My Dad, who never got a degree, was making 7 figures before he retired because he had good work ethic and was a skilled trader. Most communists are people who are good at running their mouths but suck at anything work related.

the same thing that turns them to capitalism,facism and any other ism

they want to improve their situation and think politics are all about their subjective points of refrence, rather then making politics into a science

society is a collective, so it should find ways for everyone not just a way for you to gain more power in you little life and then pass on the tourch of missed oppertunities to the next generation

>I don't know jack shit about ecenomy, but DUDE FREE SHIT LMAO, so it must be good

Basically stupid ass people who believe what everything is on paper will work IRL completely the same way and flawlessly. Everyone is equal because no one has anything, everything looks like shit because commies have one mindset: as long as its durable and does the job its good.

The only person who wants communism is the one who don't know anything about it or never lived under it, this is when I see people, especially americunts waving commie flags laugh my ass off.
You know what, I would gladly put them under commie rules, they would immediately cured after actually experiencing it.

Former commie here. The reality is that it plays on hippy values of communal teamwork and respect. It also allows poor people who feel jilted at their current plight to have someone to blame it on. I was the latter. I grew up dirt poor and worked my ass off. When I went to college, the trust fund kiddies pissed me off worse than the niggers I had to stand at the bus stop with in grade school. It took some growing up to realize that this was just envy.

Coupled with the idea of wanting equality for everyone and vindiction against the rich, college leads you to believe that because it is a state institution, state control of all things would be better. The imagery of the USSR is played up, and you're led to believe it was the economy that created that imagery, opposed to Russian culture.

Essentially, it appeals to people who want to be a good person, but have not come to terms with the fact that they actually despise 90% of the people around them. And it's becoming a harder to break from the thought process. I did, but the circumstances in which I did are not available to those who have been brainwashed.

>>71714110

Low intelligence, no motivation or ingenuity. People happy to resign control of their lives to the state, do as they are told, and be handed what they need to exist.

Pathetic sub-humans.

Of course this appeals when your economy is in the toilet and when your world is a dangerous place. Big brother looking after you appeals to the weak.

For those that want to live private, successful lives based on their own merits however, it is a fucking nightmare.
