You are defining capitalism as any activity which is "productive". So you are saying a bee that makes honey from pollen is being a "capitalist". Or any animal that stores food as fat to be consumed later, is a capitalist.

By that definition, communism is capitalism. Obviously that definition is retarded.


Capitalism has to do with "ownership of property"(IE land/resources). And it refers to capital, money, assets, etc.


Bees are not capitalists. Seriously man, are you trolling me or what?


Imagine a hunter-gatherer from 10,000 years ago, was he a capitalist? What did he own? His body fat? Rofl.

Land has always been owned communally until fairly recently. And production itself was shared in some sense communally until fairly recently. The Hunter-Gathering tribes were not capitalists.

Yeah, I just checked and it's all over the internet via torrent. It's a sad video, I wouldn't recommend anyone watching it.

No he wasn't actually.

You should read the mosque attacker's sick manifesto...

"Conservatism is corporatism in Disguise. I want no part of it... the nation with the closest political and social values to my own is the People's Republic of China."

" I chose firearms for the effect it would have on social discourse and to affect it could have on the politics of the United States with enough pressure the left wing within the United States will seek to abolish the Second Amendment and the right wing within the US will see this as an attack on their very freedom and liberty this will result in a dramatic polarization of the people of the United States and eventually a fracturing of the u.s. along cultural and racial lines."

Obviously morbid curiosity gets the best of people but after the Cleveland shooter gunned down an old black man just walking down the street after saying some stupid joke I was basically traumatized through video. I then understood the power of video shot in the first person POV. It’s like your physically there as this is going down. I don’t want to exaggerate but it’s like your pulling the trigger (again exageration). After that video, I have never wanted to see another one of those videos ever again and I’m telling everyone who wants to fulfill their morbid curiosity to just play a bloody video game or watch a movie, as the video of that shooting made me nearly throw up and had me out of it for the next week in my real life. I know we like to attack each other here on CD but I would never wish it on my worst enemies to watch videos like that taken in the first person POV, were innocents are getting mowed down.

I want to say something. While this is Islamophobia this isn’t Islamophobia. In his manifesto he clearly states he was going after all immigrants and just went after Muslims because the least people would complain. Like clockwork not only politicians but CDers are saying they weren’t Muslims they deserve it. Now I don’t know his views on Black Americans, Maori, Native Americans and other non-white non-immigrant views. But his words heavily imply if he couldn’t attack a mosque he would just go intuition the next likely target like African Migrants or Hispanics, but since their aren’t many in NZ this easily could have been an attack on Asians (largest minority in New Zealand) who while are not focused on in many white nationalist manifestos because of the view of them as a model minority still classify as an “invader” in his playbook.

This is not an attack on Muslims, as much as it is an attack on all non-whites, and those of you who are not Muslim shouldn’t be thinking, “I don’t see this as an issue I’m not Muslim”. Even if your white and from a country that he might deem non-European this is an attack against you. I’m fearmongering at this point here, but I just want to make sure you see that as much as this was fueled by Islamophobia it was fueled by anti-non European and whatever that means to the people who carry these attacks.

Interesting that neither of you refute my comment. The rhetoric that goes on in online communities like this one are dangerous. Personally, I think City Data should be held liable for sponsoring it.

So after one of your own kills 49 people and wounds countless others in the name of white supremacy, this is your response. Really. Shakin ma head.

Ok then, I guess any racially motivated mass killing is justified in your world. Good luck with that!

At this rate there likely will be more and worse Right Nationalism terrorist attacks.
MSN and Bernie Sanders are responsible for the attempted murder of Congressman Scalise and other Republicans on the baseball field that day.

...“What about the alt-left that came charging at, as you say, at the alt-right?” Trump said. “Do they have any semblance of guilt?”

“I’ve condemned neo-Nazis. I’ve condemned many different groups. But not all of those people were neo-Nazis, believe me,” he said.

“You had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists,” Trump said. “The press has treated them absolutely unfairly.”

“You also had some very fine people on both sides,” he said.

Except they didn't. The link that I have is not one that the main media is aware of. Of course YouTube and DailyMotion will take it down, but there is another link out there, and it is still working.
