Is this the part where you claim everyone who ever starves is a direct result of Capitalism, as if Communism would have fed them as if by magic?

Well this is the part where I claim that capitalism is an extremely shitty ressource allocation system as it produces more than the needs of the population and still manages to get millions of people starving.

But that's probably the part where you claim that communism wouldn't have allowed anything at all and everyone would have died because... Well you won't have to give a reason but you'll be still right.

Those numbers are quite conservative as well.

I have purposely made them conservative in order to avoid the exaggeration card.
The point would be valid even if the death toll was 10% of what it is.
Unforunately, a 100 million died from Marxist ideas.

That's not virtue signaling, that's trying to have a bigger point of view than just "hey capitalistic countries are making more money" yeah thanks dumbass, communist countries don't even have money normally so yeah they're not going to produce the same things.

Really wanna go with the death toll?
You understand that capitalism lost this battle decades ago right?

Yes.
Capitalism will produce food, while communism will not.

Money is just an instrument of exchange.

What represents the prosperity of the people is what they can afford in their regular lives, and capitalism provides them with fridges filled with food, with cars to get from point A to point B, with TVs, laptops, computers, internet, phones etc.

Communism, well, it fails at food already.

You can claim the moon is made of whipped cream, that doesn't make it so. What a horrible system! It produces abundance! I think you are having some trouble with basic logic here. You have this utopian idea in your head that it is possible to provide for everyone. Technically, that is true, but we would all have to live under basically totalitarian rule and have others making all our decisions for us. That is the BEST CASE scenario, one which is quite unlikely considering the human population is potentially infinite. What is more likely though is we get the totalitarianism and even more people die. I have explained many times why Communism is a failed model, because it is totally inefficient, ignores human nature, and provides no incentive for people to create the capital we all rely on to survive because responsibility for survival is collectivized to the state.

In capitalism everyone is being taken care of.
If you take a look around yourself, each town in the modern world has a soup kitchen where you can get free food, each town has a red cross where you can also get free food&supplies for your home, most towns have homeless shelters where the homeless can reside.

But do you know why most of the homeless don't go to homeless shelters?
Because they don't want to.

Once you meet a couple of homeless people (I did), and you try to help them out, you'll soon realize there's a reason why they are homeless.
Each single homeless guy I met is an alcoholic, drug addict or a gambler.
If you take a simple walk through the London streets, you'll realize every single homeless guy is holding a cigarette in his hand (a pack is 10 GPB) while 90% of Britons do not smoke.
How can he afford cigarettes if he can't afford food?

It is because begging for food results in more money than begging for cigarettes.
And begging is quite a lucrative business. Some estimates say you can earn a 100$/hour on busy locations.
.
I give a homeless guy a 20 kuna.
He goes into the shop and comes out with the most expensive glass beer.
Not the cheap 2L one, but the expensive 0.5L one.

Further away, I tried to buy them food.
I tell the guy, I won't give you money, but I'll buy you something to eat.
So, we go the bakery, 'I'm allergic to ___', oh okay, there's ____, ......pause...
'I'm not really hungry, bye'.

Whoever is hungry in this time in the western world can be fed at any given time by attending a soup kitchen or the red cross, even going to the church would most definitely result in the person being fed.

There is 0 people who can't acquire basic neccesities for life without them willingly doing so in the west.

The people who are called 'unlucky' are purposly being homeless as they wish not to do work when work is proposed to them, they wish not to reside in a shelter when giving the opportunity, and they wish not to save money but rather drink it.

What can you say to people with so much bad faith?

You realize I was pointing at the failure to DISTRIBUTE ressources of capitalism right? Not at the overproduction.

But when you claim that homeless people deserve to be so, when you deny the thousands of studies showing that what you do in life is dependant on who your parents were and not what you do, when you're blind to the systemic contruction of poverty and inequalities, what can you understand about capitalism failure?

What you mean to point to is irrelevant. The fact is even if the resources were more evenly distributed, you know what would happen? Human population would just continue to increase infinitely until there were not enough resources for anyone. You aren't solving anything, you are describing a fantasy.

I never said anyone deserves anything. Facts are facts regardless of what anyone deserves. Your so called studies are based in Sociology, which first of all is the least scientific of any school of science, but this specific debate of nature vs nurture you are pointing to is an ancient and never-ending debate no where near being concluded.

Again, your first point goes back to the question of scale. Even if some small homogeneous communities can operate Communism effectively does not prove it can be scaled to an international level. Western countries are below replacement level birthrates from natives. The populations are increasing because of uncontrolled illegal immigration, which is essentially proving my point.

All social sciences are the least scientific form of science because they are the least able to follow rigorous scientific method. This is not even a debate, it is well known even among social scientists. FFS, the man who was said to have invented Sociology as a science is the originator of the concept of the scientific hierarchy itself.

The premise you are presenting here is called a "false choice" logical fallacy. You proscribe two potential options, and exclude any other possibilities when many more options exist.

So far you haven't provided any of these studies for review anyway, so your point is moot. Again, the nature vs nurture debate is NO WHERE NEAR being concluded.

Amazing. This amount of stupidity or bad faith is incredible. So you're right if population increases when ressources are fairly distributed, and you're right if it doesn't. Easy to be right when you just don't give argument but a two way assertion right?

Are you that dumb? Don't you understand the difference between being less rigorous than maths and having irrelevant results because it's not scientific enough? You clearly said Sociology results shouldn't be taken into account because of how unscientific the method is. If you admit it IS scientific methodology then you must take its results into account then I agree with you and you'll have to answer to the last 40 years of sociology studies. I'm ok with that clearly.

The premise you are presenting here is called a "false choice" logical fallacy. You proscribe two potential options, and exclude any other possibilities when many more options exist.

Nope it's a logical fallacy if you can provide a thrid option. Otherwise it's not a fallacy but a descprition of a reality. Provide a third explanation or take this accusation back.

So far you haven't provided any of these studies for review anyway, so your point is moot. Again, the nature vs nurture debate is NO WHERE NEAR being concluded.

I won't provide any study before you admit sociology is a scientific methodology providing acceptable and reliable results otherwise there is no point in providing you with anything as you'll simply deny them.

Once you admit this I'll gladly give you a dozen of studies showing that your situation is far more linked to your living environment as a child thatn at your personal abilities.

Oh and by the way if you knew how to read (which I really start doubting) you would see that I NEVER talk about the Nature vs nurture debate which is an interesting opened debate. It is not my point, you simply use another logical fallacy to make me say shit and debunk it after. Yeah I agree Nature vs Nurture isn't settled. Never said it was. Not my point. Not what I said.

First of all what is "fair" is totally subjective, but for the sake of argument lets pretend "fair" is defined by your metric. If we just keep pumping resources into the 3rd world and they are not providing at least enough resources to maintain what they use, all that is happening is we are subsidizing overpopulation. The potential human population is infinite. Eventually there will not be enough resources for anyone, and by your metric this is "fair". The Western world balances out these factors, but this is being subverted by funneling in populations from the 3rd world who don't have these checks and balances, which is subverting this balance and making less resources available for all as a whole.

"You clearly said Sociology results shouldn't be taken into account because of how unscientific the method is." No, I didn't say this. I said Sociology is the lowest ranking of scientific rigor, and thus is more fallible than all the other sciences. So all of the history of Sociology (more than 40 years BTW) agrees with you? Interesting theory. Too bad you can't produce any of these studies for examination.

There are an infinite number of potential explanations, but lets just start with one. How about a combination of nature and nurture being the cause? Happy now? You were in fact using a false choice fallacy.

How can you compare a statist with capitalism?

Capitalism is voluntary interactions between individuals.
Xerxes ownes slaves and uses coercion on his subjects to go to war.
Xerxes is a literal commie - using centralized state power against the people.
There's nothing capitalist about him.

There is no leeching in capitalism.

If you are able to provide what the market needs, you are awarded.
If you are not able to, you are not awarded.
I would compare it to nature and Darwinism.

Who provides what the people need is awarded.
Who provides pointless things with no use in life is not.

of course there is leeching in capitalism.

workers have to be educated, education costs work and time, schools teachers, even the upkeep of the pupils.

socialists state educate pupils.

capitalists then simply found a banking cartel and try to steal those.

usa policy during cold war was all about stealing educated labour from eastern europe.

they never where able to maintain their wealth level without stealing/leeching. from eastern countries.

did you ever saw uk paying to poland for their polish plumbers and nurses.

in communist countries that leeching was called "econoic sabotage"

Communism superficially pretends to be humanist, in reality it is one of the least humanist systems to ever exist. The hammer and sickle are ancient symbols. The hammer represents building, creation, and Capitalism. The sickle represents harvest, destruction, and Communism. Communism from its very inception as a political movement was designed as controlled opposition to Capitalism by the banker class. They are rubbing it right in your faces with those symbols on the flag. Communism's job is to pick the bones clean after Capitalism builds a society up so that it can be harvested of resources and prepared as a clean slate to again introduce Capitalism into it for a new cycle.
