Having large numbers of people starve to death seems like a pretty damning indictment of a system. But I dunno, maybe I’m overly attached to food?

    could reply that eating food falls well within a communist system, therefore you can’t blame communism for famines.

    Try again when you’re sober, that’s not a particular cogent argument.

      I didn’t actually make that argument, I just said that I could. It would be of a similar quality to the argument you actually made though.

      (Your argument is argument is poor because although carbon taxes could fall under a capitalist system, they are not being implemented in a way that is actually useful. You are arguing hypothetical but unrealised positives for capitalism but not allowing such arguments for communism.)

      I won’t be replying to you again because I have better things to do than argue online.
