Why should they stay socialist? Why should they ever be socialist in the first place, when this is the outcome? Why should nations even exist when all they do is murder people?
- dartos 2y ago> Why should nations even exist when all they do is murder people? This is a bit of an oversimplification, don’t you think? Kind of a room temperature take.
- slackfan 2y agoNot a take, just a question for the folx to think about. Furthermore, if the only counter argument that can be made is an appeal to authority and prevailing views, or require an ad-hominem attack, then which one is the room temperature take, eh?
- AnimalMuppet 2y agoIn the absence of countries, do you think less people get murdered, or more? Yes, countries murder people. They also try to see to it that other people don't murder people. (The "monopoly on violence", and all that.) You seem to be assuming that it's worse with the existence of countries. I regard that as not proven, and even as unlikely.
