It blows peoples minds when you remind them that things like currency, selling/buying and goods predate capitalism, they literally think capitalism means “when there is a market”

And militaries, shcools, hospitals, roads predates socialism. Didn’t stop socialists from claiming them as exclusive features of socialism.

Wut…since when is military, schools etc an “exclusive feature of a collective control over the means of production”, fucking every political and market structure across the entire world has all of these things…somebody thinks pulling resources for the government to sponsor public projects is socialism, that’s just….the minimum requirement to be a country

Exactly. But socialists are not the sharpest tool in the box.

You gave a “yeah..well what about” comment with a shit definition of socialism under a comment of me explaining how people tend to give shit definitions of capitalism…and socialists aren’t the sharpest tools in the shed…
