  • Capitalism is an economic system where some can profit off of the labor of others. ‘Some’ are known as the bourgeois, and ‘others’ are the proletariat. This system is definitionally unequal.

    Communism is a stateless, classless, moneyless society. It doesn’t employ a dictator. The people themselves manage society in whatever structure is best.

    Taxes, social services, and other benefits are no substitute for abolishing the exploitation at its source by moving past capitalism into socialism. Socialism is a transitory society characterized by workers owning the means of production and centralized government planning. Its eventual goal is communism even if it never achieves it.

    I hope this helps.













  • The problem with political studies is that they’re nonscientific. It’s a blog post they’re calling a study. No amount of statistical analysis or clever methodology makes this a proper study because it’s based on political opinions. A terrible, ignorant set of opinions at that.

    “But isn’t Marxism a study of politics?!” No, it’s a body of works in economics and historical analysis, not wayward political opinions.
