The projection here is palpable.
I won't engage in your straw man argument but to be absolutely clear, I am not defending capitalism in any way shape or form. There is not a single cell in my body that endorses this shit.
That being said, I'm not content with blaming a political system. I want to hold individuals accountable for their actions. I want bad actors eliminated from society regardless of their purported political beliefs.
Bad actors exist in every form of social and political structures. It is absolutely critical that these anti-social individuals are ousted from the group.
You are oversimplifying things because it's easier than understanding the big picture. It's easy to think that political ideologies can fix things. They can't without a deeper understanding of human/animal group behaviour.
Einstein had some interesting things to say but I would suggest reading Kropotkin if you want to understand more about the true nature of social structures and the relationship between the individual and the group.
How exactly are you proposing we do this? If re-education or some similar imprisonment system works successfully, then it would be our current system (capitalisms) fault for their anti-social behavior. If on the other hand you mean they should be killed, isn't that exactly the anti-social behavior your complaining about?
I don't have a good answer on how to deal with these people specifically. There are too many potential variables to really make a conclusive statement about this. It depends so much on the social structures we're acting within.
i will say I don't think killing is inherently anti-social. If the death of an individual who is working against the wellbeing of the community is the only way to improve the health of the community then I would not consider causing their death to be anti-social.
For a "spherical cows in a vacuum" argument, I would say that if there is a community locked in a box where no one is free to come and go, and a member of that community is engaging in rape or murder, I would support them being killed. There is obviously a whole world of discussion to just be had on this example and I'm over simplifying.
The specifics are more of a moral/ethical problem than a political/social problem imo.
Congrats, you are the actual cringiest person I have encountered on the fediverse.
Every comment you post just projects harder that you are comically insecure and immature.
It's honestly sad and confusing to see behaviour like this out of someone who claims to be a leftist but I suppose you may be on the path to becoming the anti-social bad actor I'm warning about.
I'm sitting here trying to have an actual political discussion but instead laughing at how it feels like I'm arguing with an LLM trained exclusively on 4chan posts and brain rot Rick & Morty memes.
It's ok to be wrong sometimes. I used to think the same way you do but then I decided to read actual theory and educate myself on the nuances of leftist thought.
What is not ok is to drag down well meaning conversation because it makes you feel insecure.
I'm not going to block you because I have hope that you may grow as a person and some day have some meaningful things to add to discussions of this nature but I'm completely done entertaining this "conversation".
Feel free to continue shit posting meme lord gifs in an effort to feel like you have things to say but I'm out.
Take your own advice, and go think about why every individual "decides" to get wet when it rains
lmao k
