I’m a bit lost. Where did Marx say this exactly?

They made people believe that wages are somehow the only costs companies have. So when the wages rise with 14%, prices have to raise with 14% as well and the spiral begins. In reality, wages make up a much smaller part of a company than people think.

In Belgium most wages are tied to inflation, meaning a lot of people actually got a 10%+ increase of their wage last year. It’s not perfect, inflation is still high and cost of living is increasing a lot, but it helped Belgium get better out of the crises we faced. So much to the point even the neolib government officials said so.

How is that student debt forgiveness going by the way

You own nothing and will be happy!!! Posted on subscription paid iPhone in a rented overpriced appartment, watching movies through Netflix

I feel like this is an accurate description of what it´s like being in a communist party lol

Multiple people send me this today lol

The profit and unlimited growth part

Wisconcom moment

‘Wait, it has always been capitalism?’

Yes, now help us dismantle it

‘You don’t get it. Israel NEEDS to bomb thousands of children because otherwise they will be attacked 🥺’

I don’t see anyone holding up signs celebrating those hostages. Hostages who Israel also refused to take back. And it’s funny how nobody is talking about thousands of Palestinians who have been taken and jailed by Israel on bullshit charges.

Nobody is celebrating the hostages. It’s just an emotional abuse card people pull up when Israel’s genocidal tactics get pointed out. And then we suddenly feel bad for hostages. Thousands of dispalced, kidnapped and killed people on Palestinian side don’t get the same treatment.

Georgewell reference? 😳

There’s only one GOAT

Libs keep hanging on to one festival in which people were killed while Israel killed more civilians before the festival and already after it. I know it’s not a race of who kills the most, but still.

This whole thing just shows that libs and even other leftists would side with the oppressor in a heartbeat. Haiti and Algeria? Well the French must be able to defend themselves! Indonesia? Those poor Dutch colonisers!

Bruh go outside and touch grass lmao

Without our social safety net in Belgium the vast majority of people would fall back into poverty, would be unable to afford medical help, would have no way of ever retiring.

Not only that, because of the way our social safety net is designed, it is beating capitalist systems of unemployment benefits, healthcare and insurance at efficiency too, with a lower average cost (for the state) of case handling.

A social safety net is not peak socialism but it is the thing that our socialist comrades died for in the past which is now preventing capitalist ghouls to completely destroy our society. The successes of this system get attributed to capitalist efforts to keep our Western European society at the top of the world in terms of living standards, while its flaws get attributed to lazy socialist profiteers.

It is socialism that made sure this country has some way of helping the poor and unfortunate instead of letting them die of poverty. It was the union who started this system by allowing their members to contribute a small part of their wage to distribute among the unemployed in times where unemployment meant starvation. It was socialist effort who made sure the sick got treatment without them being able to afford it.

Capitalism = unequal wealth except that the vast majority of the wealth is held by <1% of global society while the rest of us fight for bread crumbs. It is socialism who wants to abolish this barbaric system to distribute the wealth equally.

Who

Yeah must be shocking. Luckily it’s not the norm anymore at most places. I have an unfortunate blackface pic of me as an oblivious kid sadly.

It is also a highly political picture capable of destroying families and long standing friendships. Actual riots have happened because some people say: ‘we don’t want a racist caricature in our holiday’.
