"Figure out how I'm gonna be completely happy and healthy for the rest of my life and then we can discuss chemotherapy"
That's now how you fix things. Relinquishing capitalism doesn't mean Stalinism, nor communism to be honest.
I fully agree. I was more interested in a conversation on communism and history, so my comment took the conversation in that direction. Personally I support social democratic systems like you find in the Nordic countries.
social democracies still rely on exploitation, they just push all the negative aspects of capitalism somewhere else
