>This myth has no economic basis.
>commies believed that all rich CEO's need to get Luigi'd (AOC & Bernie Sanders both said rich people shouldn't exist) and the working class deserved to get paid more than their CEO, which makes no sense because the CEO legally owns 51% of his company's profits.
>Pathetic economic knowledge: commies didn't know everyone isnt equal in terms of skills, abilities, & knowledge. Why should a McDonald's burger flipper get paid more than a Banker?
>communism is a set of nonsense ideas, which preaches the hatred against "rich people."
>It's hard to identify who needs to get Luigi'd because commies believed anyone rich with a net income over $1 million need to get Luigi'd . It's kind of confusing commies' thoughts.

Commies in 2025 are, to a person, neurotic angry people that want others to suffer out of some sense of revenge

plenty of reasons to hate communism, but looks like you're still on the "the nazis were socialists!" stage of your red pilling, which is fine. keep reading.

Nice Gish gallop.

"He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them. But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion... Nor is it enough that he should hear the opinions of adversaries from his own teachers, presented as they state them, and accompanied by what they offer as refutations. He must be able to hear them from persons who actually believe them...he must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form."
- John Stuart Mill, On Liberty.

The nazis were socialist though.

This is not true under capitalism (CEO compensation is often tied to profit, but not always, and there's no law that says it has to be 51% - is often lower, in the case of publicly traded companies, or higher, when the CEO and owner are the same person) and communism, as a political movement, seeks to alter laws
Also, profits are unpaid wages, every cent of profit that isn't reinvested in the company should go to the people who made the profits happen, not into a shareholder's bank account
>Pathetic economic knowledge: commies didn't know everyone isn't equal in terms of skills, abilities, & knowledge. Why should a McDonald's burger flipper get paid more than a Banker?
Even the USSR allowed degrees of wage disparity to reward particularly difficult or unpleasant work; it just also grasped that burger flippers were still people and deserved a decent life instead of throwing them on the mercy of the market
>>It's hard to identify who needs to get Luigi'd
no, it's easy - does your money come from your own labor or through the exploitation of others?

>>17787077
Not really.

Socialism: "any of various egalitarian economic and political theories or movements advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods"

After comimg to power the Nazis carried out large-scale privatization and actively repressed labor unions. The economic structure of Nazi germany would better be described as being corporatist or State-Capitalist which if anyhing really is much closer to the contemporary economic structure of China.

This just proves his point. E-commies are unhinged freaks with a chip on their shoulder who have school shooter fantasies about murdering people who piss them off for petty reasons. This flippant attitude about execution is why communism is insane

Is this /hist/ or /pol/?

They were Fascist. Fascists were just 19th cerntury technocrats that believed that "real monarchy hasn't been tried" and believed they could leverage industry in order to secure power and mobilize people towards ideological goals. Their focus on leveraging industry to secure authority is why they superficially resembled the Soviets, and it's also why so many fascists were also futurists. There was both a Left-wing and right-wing faction of the Nazi Party, but ultimately all the left-wing party members were exiled or killed off in violent purges, leaving the "Socialist" part of the "National Socialist" party an orphaned term

I'd vastly prefer a peaceful expropriation and redistribution in which porky accepts it and no one dies
but history (or the present day; check out the life expectancy difference by income, or what Boeing got away with recently) shows that the rich are more than willing to kill to protect their privileges, so normal people have to fight back or nothing gets better

>Getting mad at communists
>In 2025
You are fighting last century's war. Communists are buck-broken to the point that literally all they do is sit and pray that "Comrade Xi" personally frees them from capitalist society. They are worse than irrelevant. You are the equivalent of an Israeli still seething at the Romans.

Why the strawman? Everyone knows CEO's have extremely bloated salaries and benefits and often times get rewarded for fucking up...multiple times.

>>17787123
/pol/ is mostly discussion about current events

The guy who got Luigi'd intentionally pushed shit AI to screw over people's insurance claims and implement "Prior authorisation" which is the most retarded concept in Healthcare. Do you think a guy who failed high-school biology or the guy who hasn't practice medicine for 30 years should determine which surgeries are necessary or not?

Is this the new Psyop? Give me a break.
Strausserism is only relatively left of Hitlerism, both support the selective privitization of industry as well as hierarchical social class structures, they only justifed these contradictions via. Nationalism. The anti-capitalistic ideas espoused by the Straussers were more rhetorical than systemic and truly only seeked to combine selective elements of socialist economic policy with fascist authoritarianism (Again somewhat similar to contemporary China).
>>17787139
Fair enough.
But you can easily see why I said that. This thread has far more to do with proselytizing than it does discussing history in any meaningful way.

"State-capitalism" is cope and is just code for a socialist/communist nation trying to keep itself afloat. They are allowing capitalism only to the point that it keeps their socialist machine alive. In other words, an implicit admittance of the failures of collectivism.

You opened pandora box with this one, commies hate this fact. They think they are the only ones who have dibs on socialism and anti capitalism. But we know.
