Schizophonia

It's the lack of activities and other people that would piss me off. No monuments, no restaurants, no gastronomy in general, no cinema, no bowling alleys, no pool with friends while drinking beers, no Latina prostitutes ☹️, not much human warmth in general.

Maintain good mental hygiene; otherwise, you'll become/remain cynical, dysthymic, and unwilling to work. Joe Dispenza recommends meditating every morning.

@Sugarcoat You had to listen to Dr Valentin

Ok, I thought you were going to talk about my sex jokes or something like that lol. That's fine then.

Eheh I think he's straight but quite repressed.

I will keep you aware of the experiment 😏 I already had an account on another dating site and I got quite a few matches, even though it annoyed me and the quality of the girls wasn't high enough. With much better photos and a bigger dating site like Hinge, there's a chance of getting good results.

But this isn't unique to communism. The Third Reich was totalitarian and it was a market economy. Yes, but once again, being under a mad dictator and having an autarkic economy is not unique to communism. What's wrong with building factories as long as they're productive? I don't know Romania, but even under Stalin, who was a horrible dictator, the population ultimately increased enormously and the USSR became an industrial superpower. There is no difference at all That doesn't mean anything; either these factories were active and producing goods, or they weren't. They closed because the economic and social structures and trade with other countries changed drastically and suddenly with the collapse of the Soviet bloc; the same thing happened, only worse, in Russia. And once again Romania is like one of the worst possible communist experiments. Once again you are in a delirium. Communism is (normally) precisely about guaranteeing the needs of people who actually work. It's in a capitalist system that you are "a bitch", because you often work for people who aren't any more essential but are better positioned. Not everyone can become a boss; firstly because it's impossible, it makes no sense, and secondly because as you yourself say not everyone has the time, money, cognitive or physical capacity to have their "own business." Does that mean it's too bad for them to be exploited? That's what capitalism ultimately leads to: a predatory hierarchy of exploitation. You're conflating welfare and communism; in a communist system everyone would have to work; social assistance is only useful in a capitalist system. Stop with your delusions of hardworking, courageous people and such versus useless people; it's fantasy and actually a bit mean to oneself when one knows the projection mechanism.

Obviously in 10/20 years the infrastructure of a city can evolve a lot; there was barely an internet 20 years ago; technologies, means of production in general and by extension the creation of wealth have evolved enormously. You don't need a "business" to produce and distribute things; it's just a social organization, and a social organization that amplifies inequalities. Not only is it hypocritical to talk about precarious working conditions as if they were good and as if you were ready to do the same, but it also has nothing to do with capitalism or communism. That’s not communism. In communism there is no unemployment because there is no labor market; and most Marxist thinkers agree that everyone must work and be beneficial to the community; communism is not about giving money for doing nothing, that would be stupid. The goal of communism is precisely to guarantee good living conditions for those who work rather than for those who are lucky enough to be well-positioned. And the Ceaușescu regime is not “the communism”; it was a communist-inspired dictatorship like all the regimes installed, influenced by the USSR or China.

No, capitalism is the least meritocratic system because by definition it favors those who already have capital to begin with and a ludicrous distribution of purchasing power.

There will have to be a shift towards statism

But it's the same for you and Leo; your attention is constantly shifting to emotionnamy negatively charged ideas. Personal development, pick-up, getting your brains fried by magic mushrooms, politics, and so on. And since sexual behavior generally reflects your persona I'm sure you get turned on by girls who reflect that. So all of this is projection, a mirror effect; and there's projection because there's a refusal to acknowledge one's desire, which is a neurotic reflex. edit: I responded intuitively as if it were a question of "good guys" versus "bad guys" whatever that means because generally it's that; here you are twisted in a slightly different way but it amounts to the same thing.

mhh what are you referring to 🤔

But as a result you will not have the opportunity to open up and will continue to tacitly declare that Marxists are wrong here and there because it suits your ego structure. In a debate, you either shut down and are humiliated, or you incorporate what the other person is proposing. You said somewhere that Buddhist monks were very exclusionary but that's neurotic projection lol, Buddhism is about inclusion and it's because the monks integrate so much that they find themselves isolated from classic human issues; because taking an interest in them would recreate separation, karma.

Why do you project that

@Carl-Richard Why this obsession lol
