Because most of them aspire to be one of the folks that collects the green segments from others. Even though they never will.

It’s easy to understand how income and taxes affect my life. For many jobs, it’s very difficult to understand the value of my labor in a bigger picture.
I think most people can’t think abstractly and thus struggle to see larger interactions like how money flows through an economy.
Yeah and lole 99 percent of people will believe a fake statistic or bar graph
You think it's less exploitative under socialism? Have you ever met a victim of communism/socialism? I've met many
Yes, without a bourgeois class focusing production on personal accumulation and instead directing production towards fulfilling the needs of the people, there is less exploitation.
What do you mean a "victim of Communism?" Someone who has lived in AES countries? Lol.
A spectre is haunting LordSinguloth. https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Victims_of_Communism_Memorial_Foundation
I literally grew up in USSR, but do go on.
If you're pro communism then you literally did not.
A canadian telling a Communist that lived in the USSR that they didn't, lmao.
I'm not a canadian
Lemmy.ca
Bruh
That was the one at the top of the list, so I selected it since it didn't seem to matter.
But for that matter, you are aware there exist folks of different nationalities in Canada?
It matters enough to significantly alter your local and all feeds, at least.
I am of course aware that different nationalities exist in Canada, they are still Canadian. That's a goofy point to make. Almost as goofy as telling a former resident of the USSR that they aren't just because they have a positive opinion of it.
Right. Cause no one has ever lied
But thanks foe letting me know about the local and all feeds being changed. Would explain all the obnoxious socialist stuff I keep seeing lol
Have a good one
Do you have evidence for the lie, or is it just vibes? Kinda rude and pointless otherwise.
You're seeing Socialist stuff not because of Lemmy.ca, but because of Lemmy. Lemmy was made by Communists, along Communist principles. You're seeing less Socialist material on Lemmy.ca.
I recommend finding a niche community focused on something you're interested in and making that your home. Local feeds are fun and unique, and All feeds show what you aren't regularly seeing.
Thanks for the information, just wish there was any social media without outrageous bias. Reddit and Twitter are equally unusable
I just want memes
Everything and everyone has bias. Lemmy was designed along Communist principles, so naturally it is going to have Communists.
If you just want memes, you can probably make a Lemm.ee account, subscribe to the various meme communities you enjoy across the fediverse alone, and scroll your subscribed feed by new so you see memes even from less active communities on smaller instances.
I'm pro communism and I literally did. I love how you immediately accuse people of lying when their experience doesn't match what you want to hear.
the guy is now saying you're a liar lmfao, this cannot be real
This is the typical reaction you get from these types. They just assume that nobody could've possibly liked living in a place like USSR, and if somebody say otherwise the only explanation is they're lying.
It's just wild to see lol, I thought they'd at least question your experience instead of outright dismissing it
The level of brainwashing is really astounding.
funny how you deny someone's experience when it doesn't suit your convenience.
😂
Who? And what has socialism and communism done to them?
Are there any good recent statistics papers looking at the rate-of-exploitation in recent years?
