If you aren't already boycotting these organizations, it's time to start! These are the corporate sponsors for Trump's military parade on 6/14.

I want every unironic Capitalist to see this and reflect on their system. Is this "democracy"? Was this worth all the resources spent to conquer Communism? Was this worth the United States being the "world police"? Is Capitalism really worth defending?

I agree. Regardless of anyone's opinion on communism, everyone should just look at this and see how absolutely dire it is. This is textbook advanced capitalism, in all it's dystopian glory. Huge corporations in bed with the military industrial complex. It's a thousand shades of fucked up.

This is stupid. There's no clear lines between capitism and communism, irl with regulations, shit always lands somewhere in the middle. If we look strictly at quality of life, capitalist-leaning countries win easily, even for the poorer countries (excluding the ones with actual slavery ofc).

Communism won't save you from fascism.
