You said it yourself the systems are created by people, the people can be evil. They are the root of the evil aka anyone upholding capitalism because they profit even tho they know exactly how bad it is for the world and people, just like the people creating fascism the fascist are the root of evil.
Capitalism is a system and just that, it has no moral, therefore cannot be evil. The red hand without the ussr symbol would make this image more unified.
People only really change when it hurts so much they are forced to. It needs to get much worse to reach that breakpoint and critical mass. (Some reach it sooner than others ) But when it does, we need to be ready with the most logical and attractive solution to avoid them choosing fascism or other extremes. Left ideology needs better marketing, why not sell that utopian vision we hope to achieve.
For entertaining information, I can recommend a few YouTube channels that usually cover every question you might have.
Second Thought - has well produced videos on past and current events with the socialist perspective that is in my opinion based.
Overzealot - is pretty new and mostly covers the south American history with socialism very well.
Hakim - while having very interesting historical facts, seems a bit extreme sometimes and you need a lot of prior knowledge to follow him.
Gus - The german version of second thought, just less quality.
Climate Town - while not promoting socialism, is great at showing the insanity of the current system, with good humor.
And why is the norway model not great, because it still relies on 50% oil exports and like any capitalistic system can eventually deteriorate the social system, through lobbies and such, while at the same time still supporting exploitation of either the environment or people (also abroad).
Population has declined in general, especially in richer countries. This stat alone is not conclusive or a solid argument. There are better stats that proof ussr communism wasn’t bad for the people compared to capitalism.

That would rule out any us based companies for privacy concerns as alternatives atm.
How does it aim the barrel?

Mangoholic@lemmy.mlto Privacy@lemmy.ml•German Prosecutors Think It’s Funny People’s Homes Are Being Raided And Their Devices Seized Because They Said Stuff On The Internet167·2 months agoA quick search and you will notice that the people suddenly concerned about Germanies hatespeech laws are trustworthy folks like jd vance, trump and other far right actors. Also the fact that procecusion doesn’t happen often, shows that it is enforced with causion and not arbitrary like in the case of the current US deportation nightmare. That is abuse of power. Maybe the US wouldn’t have trumps fascist takeover, if they had speech laws, like in Germany.

Most of the afd nazi voters are in east Germany. Should you be criminally charge for a call to murder, voilence genocide and other racism, holocaust denial? Absolutely. Lets not pretend that neo Nazis are political satire geniuses.
You obviously cannot compete with mass production goods, but there are a lot of products like food, art etc, that benefit from being unique. I agree tho it is not the norm, but still a choice.
What if you are a shitty employee and the capitalist doesn t notice. You are getting payed way to much for the little work you do. Or you are working solo and selling your own goods those are choices.

Crypto is a ledger making it inherently bad for privacy. It doesn’t have any real value, its just believe that holds its value (can’t be eaten or be used to create anything). Its really bad for the climate and wastes resources like crazy. Its not a better payment system and its unregulated, meaning you can get scammed and nobody can reverse the damage. Just why do people want it to be a thing, the issues are so many and solution few.
