A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

At least with capitalism I'm not starving or have nothing for my labor.

Ah nice self-unmasking. "I am comfortable under capitalism and it could be worse for me so thats why I don't want to even consider something else where no-one had to starve while food is available or be homeless while millions of houses stand empty." You are just selfish and afraid.

It’s also known as intellectual humility. A person is allowed to think of their own self interest, and speaking of one’s own experience is the most based form of communication because it holds the highest certainty.

Ah throwing buzzwords around you don't know the meaning off? Weak.

Also, none of those ever were communism, so they can't be "WhAt ComMuNisM TuRns InTo"
