You tell me that after saying this...?

Truth bothers you that much? Noted

No one wants to be ruled by an iron fist.

No one wants to raise your health insurance premiums.

No one wants to take your guns away.

No one wants open borders.

Capitalism has still failed them. This is the first generation that will be poorer than their parents.

There is zero empirical proof of that as of yet - the opposite is most likely true assuming normal growth.

Why can't both be at fault? Certainly capitalism plays a large role in our society.

Jesus, it's rare that someone destroys their own argument so quickly. Thanks

if you want to show me some examples of communist countries

There are no "communist countries". There are socialist countries to one extent or another, but no "communist countries". That's just more fear-mongering propaganda that you've swallowed hook, line, and sinker - and cork.

But the burden is on YOU to provide proof that there are millennials out there, "literally asking to be ruled with an iron fist."

But it's neat how you come out with an outrageous claim, and then demand proof of others for making much more modest claims.

This isn't really difficult. They're advocating to be ruled by a system that leads to being ruled by an iron fist every time. Not sure why you're defending their stupidity unless you agree with it.

It has to be this.

NK isn't a communist country?

I know you progressives love to play the word change game, but it doesn't cover the truth.

They're saying they want to live under a system of government that always ends up ruling with an iron fist. This isn't difficult, man.


Now go on and regale me with tales about how true communism has never been enacted and would work if done properly.

quote:

Capitalism has seriously failed millennials.

Actually, millennials seriously failed capitalism.

Capitalism dictates that if you spend money on a worthless degree, like Gender Studies, there is a limited market for genderologists, and therefore you'll end up a barista unable to pay off your student loans.

Ignorance.

When a lot of us were young, we knew about the atrocities committed by Communist regimes. If we didn't see it first-hand on the news, our parents told us about it. It was present-day events for us. For millennials, it is just some old history. History they believe they can correct "and do it right this time!"
