What do you think about the police?

[The Architect Of Fate]

Any realistic communist society relies on a working statistical system. That's how you would accomplish equal distribution of food. How else would you do that? Such a failure of a statistical system is not only unlikely to happen in a capitalist society (as capitalist societies usually value free speech), but it also would not have such disasterous consequences in it (as capitalism does not rely on a statistical system to work).

In all seriousness though, this conversation is getting ridiculous. I mean, the Irish Potato Famine was caused by British government issuing racist laws preventing Catholics from owning more than a small amount of land, so Catholics cultivated what they could profitably cultivate on a small amount of land: potato. So, because of those racist laws, Ireland was dependent on potato for food. When a disease came that killed all potato, the British government forced Ireland to massively export the little food they had. And you are blaming capitalism (the lack of government intervention in the economy) for the famine. Come on now!

Surely even you - pig ignorant as your - aren’t claiming that the UK in the mid 19th century was anything OTHER than a capitalist economy?
