Originally posted by tmetzlerThen why are ppl afraid of communism? I mean seriously, ppl say capitalism exists because "nobody will aspire to work or work harder if it doesn't", but if the system doesn't reward the hardest workers, isn't that a contradiction of idealogues that makes no sense? Anyways, thanks for admiting what I knew all along about capitalism, that the system is one big lying sham, and that "teach a man to fish" slogan is just as retarded. . .
I think you misunderstood capitalism. If you think that, then the orange-grove pickers would be getting paid more than the majority of the population. Sorry but the level of work has nothing to do with capitalism. Capitalism is simply about having what somebody else wants and exchanging it for what you want. I'm sure some of the economics/business majo ...[text shortened]... take up knitting or basket weaving. I'm sure they offer that as a class at your group home.
I'm so dumb. Why don't my opponents feel sorry for me and resign when I play into a tactic that I think a child should see? You people don't know what it's like to deserve everthing and get nothing. God must hate me, that's why I'm dumb and need everyone to do everything for me, even though all I do for myself is seek other people's pity. I study 4-6 hours a day becuase I don't have to go to work, you don't know what that's like. blah, blah, blah, blah
You are a broken record....
Pathetic

You are sooo right. You are the only person in the world that has ever had to work a crappy job in their life....
like I said, PATHETIC
Originally posted by BLReidYou were being sarcastic and completely exagerating the situation. You hypoberlated that you and I and many others are the same in a way we have all done crappy jobs, but there is a huge difference beteewn doing crappy jobs and having/forcing to do NOTHING BUT crappy jobs YOUR ENTIRE LIFE. If you cannot seriously see the difference beteewn that, ugh, surely you can see the difference?
Oh I know "nobody understands what it is like"
that's the theme song for the self-pitying
"STFU"? isn't his a public forum? Or do you only have a right to respond if you agree with mateulose, or are willing to pander to his nonsense?
just curious...
"I don't think you CAN put useful time into anything but feeling sorry for yourself, and irritating the rest of this community, along with any other groups you socialize in no doubt. You have been told countless times by countless people that the problem is your attitude. You either:
a) don't listen, because you are in denial"
Your feeling that I "don't listen" is understandable. You see, humanity is like a pack of Borg drones at many times. Your suggestions are in the norm, I've heard them all before, I've done them all before, they didn't work, why go with a suggestion you know doesn't work? Until you use some innovation and mention something that hasn't been done before, I'll try it, but if you are going to offer me advice on stuff I've done for years that have been proven not to work with me, then yes, I'll show very little patience with that and treat your suggestion like nothing.
"b) don't listen, because you really believe the nonsense you spew
-or- (and this is my bet)"
What else do I have? I've been doing stuff the Western/capitalists way for a decade, it doesn't work for me, I guess I'm just not good at the system, shame really, but if you can't win by advancing through the system and sabotaging it, then I guess all that's left is to grab the bull by the horns. Besides, if you hate a system so much, but decide to "make a difference" by advancing through it, that seems kinda hypocritical to me and almost a betrayal of thineself.
"c) know that u are full of it, and simply try to irritate everyone here, because it amuses you."
I get that a lot, I don't really mean to irratate, but let out my anger over a dreadful fate, I've got several more decades of this CRAP coming up, and one was bad enough.
either way, it's on you "bud"
Originally posted by mateulosePerhaps I can't see the difference. Perhaps I am not as erudite as you. That's it! I'm the dumb one! You have single handedly identified all the flaws of the capitalist sytem, and enlightened me and others like me that our successes have been the product of luck, not effort. Here I was thinking (mistakenly) that I actually earned things. Born poor, raised destitute, homeless twice, mother married 6 times, I was abused by all of them, never had a dime for school, DON"T have a college degree...and never waited for anyone to fix my problems for me. Yes, I know about being dealt a crappy hand in life. Yes, I understand the limitations imposed by various misfortunes, including mental issues (I happen to have very limited concentration abilities and almost no short term memory). Yes, I know what it is to work hard and achieve small results. Answer, quit whining and work harder. Why? Because NOTHING ELSE WILL CHANGE YOUR SITUATION. I'm sorry, but I have no patience for people who make a lifestyle out of feeling sorry for themselves. The facts are, you have achieved a rather respectable rating in chess (which you already know), and you are intelligent (your posts clearly illustrate a good vocabulary, knowledge of political systems, and the skill to manipulate others). I know truly mentally challenged people. I am related to people who really are limited to a life of menial jobs. Guess what, they don't complain. None of them are capable of grasping even the most rudimentary concepts of this game, and couldn't hope to express written thoughts the way you do. In short, I remain convinced that you are completely full of nonsense.
