I can't understand these people. Sure if you want to be a Communist then hide behind the theoretical defense but supporting the Soviet Union is like being a Nazi apologist.

they do it because they hope to get attention which will give them a sense of importance

I'm guessing you live in America, in which case I'm not surprised, America is the land of self important people.

While I hate Leftists I don't think they're at all as bad as far right sympathizers. Neo-nazis are pretty much exclusively garbage, whereas you have some intelligent people on the far Left.

I don't understand how they can throw away their intellect and morals to the point of condoning the USSR.

...

>t. leftypol

>the ussr is bad

go back to /pol/

desu I wear mine ironically, I'm actually a closet anarcho-capitalist.

>intelligent people
>far left

There has literally never been a single one.

GULAGS

>not being apolitical

no gulags = SJW heaven, new global caliphate, and general decay of culture. See: modern day western europe and america

>walk out and decide i'll never bother with bookshops again

Books are gay. Time you realize this

Books are not happy. Nothing is happy, everything is miserable.

Book fans are gay. Everyone wants to beat them up.

Book fans are not happy. Nobody wants to beat them off.

Literature should be left to the elite as real literature is expression of the imagination of the elite. If you're not part of the .01% and still pursuing writing and reading at a sophisticated level, you're only pretending and basically living a lie. That's why everyone wants to hit you in the face.

Easily the most horrifying thing I've read this year.

>a bunch of communists
>owning businesses

This. Hope her cooties didn't infect the books.

Not really. It does seem fetishist though.

What country would be the opposite?

>Walk on street

>qt serves me
>get a discount for buying more than five
>get a bunch of good books for less than a dollar each
Sucks to be you I guess.

People hate me for it, but it feels good not to care.

Fucking hell, I don't think I've read a wronger post all week.

You can't support Trump and still be literate. Plebs like you should just stick to video games.

>implying you can be apolitical

>he has such shit taste he can just find books hes into by walking down a street
Fucking pleb

>private biz
>commies

Brothers Karamazov for 2 bucks isn't a bad deal in my opinion.

>reading plebstoyevsky

I bought a lof of stuff there.
Annalects of Confucius was pretty good.

>nearby ghetto thrift store has a huge book section.
>As long as you speak english, don't vomit or take your penis out in the store, and look half human, they'll usually give you a few books for free.
>Small chance of being mugged or assaulted or kidnapped going here, but I ain't got shit to live for anyway.

What if you read Clinton Cash and The Clinton War on Women, and on the other hand read The Art of the Deal and Crippled America?

Then you have no idea how to pick informative books to expand your knowledge of a topic and might as well watch the History Channel

Nice moving of goalposts there, comrade.

Weren't my goalposts

>Reading propaganda barely held together into a coherent narrative by a few tortured bits of truth or the ghostwritten ramblings of a petty narcissist whose main talent is not being restricted by concepts of ethics or equity in his dealings

You have an interesting though technically valid definition of literate, friend

You just described Joyce.

Communism has no ethical basis tho. Really, if it was just the whole "Dictatorship of the proletariat" thing, in which wealth would be distributed not equally, but democratically, it could argue for having one, since it would be a system consistently after power to the people.

And if it were just the thing about public ownership of the results of manual labour, then it could also work, since its base principle would be direct recompensation, even if that would be a bit shaky, since people worked building the means of production.

But it's just some autism.
