I get the joke, but.. Chinese Cultural Revolution already prosecuted people who did not produce enough poop to fertilize fields. This already happened! And 70%

I get the joke, but.. Chinese Cultural Revolution already prosecuted people who did not produce enough poop to fertilize fields. This already happened! And 70% of males in US very violently attacked while they were infants to have big parts of their genitals removed! Those genitals were used as a skin care product for rich! This joke is just too real to be funny!

> Those genitals were used as a skin care product for rich! This is true. All those fancy ladies getting collagen injection into their lips don’t realize where the collagen came from. Allergan’s strain was cultured from the discarded foreskin from a single boy about 27 years ago.

I would like to know more about the CCP fertilizer business, with sources. I keep running up against an astonishing ignorance from the younger generations about some of the excesses of these sorts of groups just as they bemoan "late stage capitalism."

  Just to be clear, when people bemoan late stage capitalism it doesn't mean that they also all like and appreciate CCP/Mao/Stalin etc. One can be anti-capitalist without being pro-authoritarian communism.

    At some point there's an implicit obligation to suggest something better, rather than just complain.

      You think anti-(fascist-)capitalists have no better suggestions than dictators from 40+ years ago?

        You think anti-(fascist-)capitalists have no better suggestions than dictators from 40+ years ago? It would seem that they don't. Their suggestions, when they exist, are based on a childlike naïveté that can be justified only with near-complete ignorance of both history and human nature. Conflating opposition to capitalism and opposition to fascism is a good example. The sad thing is that you don't have to go very far to the right before you encounter stupidity of comparable magnitude.
