When the existence of your economic system is predicated on infinite growth

>ITT children of middle class who will never "make it" and will literally die in cancer trying so

avarage brainlet amerisharts

And the suicide rate in South Korea?

Nice argument.

>implying both communism and capitalism aren't equally interested in destroying the environment for the sake of infinite growth in a finite world

The only difference between capitalism and communism is how the wealth from exploited resources is distributed, neither systems are interested in the preservation and conservation of said resources. They're both cancerous.

what other arguement you need apart from fueling a system that due its very nature, destines most of its participants to be a failure mr. temporarily embarrased millionaire

It's all due to their final exams in school.

But almost no-one holds the ideology of growth for the sake of growth. People don't want growth in the abstract, they want growth for the sake of more specific, concrete desires.

but most of the economicsts do, they usually hold the very strong belief if the economy isnt growing its shrinking, theres no stopping the greedtrain

>woops , I just accidently the ozone layer and the ocean
>Better invest more money into space exploration, because by the time I'm done with this planet, colonizing a whole other planet filled with barren desert and no atmosphere will sound amazing :DDD

Not even Hitler was this stupid

i think the AI will exterminate us because we are a parasitic species

MORE PEOPLE MORE CARS MORE HOUSES MORE USELESS JOBS MORE TECHNOLOGY MORE PLASTIC CRAP MORE EVERYTHING

What's that you say? Housing shortage? Unemployment? Pollution? Congestion? Healthcare system collapsing under its own weight?

HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN

How can a system that needs infinite growth exist in a universe that itself isn't even infinite? It's doomed to fail eventually

>respirate, contract
>Why is the human body predicated on infinite breathing????

Because when a system is not built around the finite kept in mind it will collapse eventually. Like our current neo-liberal order :D
>The individuals is the same as the collective
You realize we have things like birth, and evolution, and the ability to delay impulse gratification, right?

There is another option

Both capitalism and communism believe in infinite growth, they just disagree on how to go about it.

The way to sustainable civilization is en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-level_equilibrium_trap

Sure, it "improved", barely.
"Greatly" though? Nah, capitalism did that.

Lol, I love this image. Nothing else so clearly displays the inferiority of leftism.

won't happen until 3000 at best

>they'll have flying cars and moon colonies by 2020

Commies are unironically proud of this, they have their own infographs with how successful it was
>GDP raised by 300% over x period of time!
>With that, if only it lasted few more years, commie states would catch up with West!

What is gross social product

How is this picture wrong?

Where does this pathetic meme come from?

The whole point of capitalism isn't "growth", the whole point of capitalism is increased efficiency.

>retarded growth
>no infrastructure to support it

hmmmm

...

Capitalism does not RELY on growth, growth is the RESULT of capitalism. We say it's bad when there is no growth not because we need growth, but because growth is the expected result of normal economic activity, so its absence indicates a problem.

Do you really think centuries of growth is just a coincidence that capitalism is merely reading advantage of? I mean, really?

Instead of a cure for cancer though it's actually just them lobbying the government to import tens of millions of retarded third worlders.

Infinite growth and zero sum. The ideology is that in order to create growth the economy has to be owned by as few people as possible.

But your second panel already show those capitalists reinvesting for more growth. If anything the biggest falsehood is that it is the governments that care the most about cancer and fusion power

>Capitalism does not RELY on growth
But nobody said that

>rich guy posting on Veeky Forums to shit talk poor people
WT actual F is this meme?

Get over yourself

Capitalism and Communism are both murderous ideologies

The Africa one? It's not.

Who? A business would not waste money doing that.
Risky investments that might amount to nothing or very low returns.

bms.com/researchers-and-partners/in-the-pipeline.html

Private company developing several drugs which help the immune system target cancer cells, Dasatinib, Elotuzumab, Ipilimumab and Nivolumab.

Still investments that seeks to give even more returns. Whether or not it actually does is irrelevant.

>idk how the drugs or anything else are developed
For fuck sake, government's grants and research form the theory and proof of concept that these private companies are trying to monetize. No company built internet infrastructure before the researchers on the government's money made it a thing

Africa is literally cancer tier, holy shit...

>what is life itself
Self-replicate or GTFO you sissy

"Whataboutism" is just the yelping sound a commie makes when offended by a capitalist who's seen through his memes

Isn't the goal of humankind to spread out and settle the stars?

>what is a cancer/virus

sustainability or gtfo you sissy

no. there's nothing out there for us. just boring ass rocks. the most complex and beautiful things in the universe are already right here.

>and then i woke up from my fantasy

so we all have to be neets and study philosophy to save the world. sounds good.

Why would growth be bad?

literally
