More people die of food and water insecurity today under global capitalism every decade than the black book said died under communism in 80 years.
Interesting claim. Care to actually back it up?

Realm, being called 'raving' by a commie like you is something I take as a compliment.If that statement defines someone as "Raving", seeing as I lifted it directly off Bacle that makes an interesting comment on this place

No, no I didn't.Didnt you drop out of uni because you spend all your money on bernie donations?
The story you put for is the result of a long game of telephone between people who already didn't like me.
A handful million a year dead to lack of food, a handful million to lack of water, half a million to diarrhea from unclean water, it adds up quick
Oh, so are you admitting you and others are willing to spread falsehoods about me because it's entertaining?Gotta admit it's more fun than "bullied by the libs" tho

If Allende did what Pinochet did you would be bitching to me about the evils of communism. But he didn't. He didn't arm the people despite being told too, he didn't move to class dictatorship, and he was murdered for it.
Here's a flat fuck off from me, don't pretend like liberal rules aren't something you throw off when capitalism and liberalism is threatened in the post about how it was legitimate to torture and rape people because capitalism and liberalism were threatened
I can state numbers with no substantiation as well. Where did these numbers come from? Which nations? Which years?
Citation Required.
Nobody here has been claiming torture or rape to be necessary or legitimate.

You are a commie, are friends with other commies, you are friends with people who have repeatedly dogpiled me and report-spammed me, and who thought/think nothing of continuing to hassle PM members.Man, are you even aware how people interact with each other? Has anyone told you a rumor or what
Because I can almost guarantee your interrogation of sources if going to be extremely vapid and I'm on mobile, heres one for food
(A)lmost five million children under the age of five die of malnutrition-related causes every year
I'm going to take a flying guess here, and surmise that those children have the misfortune of living in countries that are economically backward, and have ruling elites who live in luxury and attend international conferences where they talk about redistributing more of the world's wealth to themselves, while doing little or nothing for the common people of their countries.
It's called Champagne Socialism.
And if those countries were socialist/communist, the only difference would be that you wouldn't pretend to care about people dying there.
Sankara got Burkina Faso from food insufficiency to surplus in under 4 years, but that doesn't fit with the anticom npc script I guess
And if those countries were socialist/communist, the only difference would be that you wouldn't pretend to care about people dying there.
This doesn't say where. Following the footnote on the death number also gets to a document that doesn't say where, and that document doesn't give sources either. You have failed to present proof.
What about Venezuela?
North Korea, Vietnam, Maoist China, Soviet Russia, the Khmer Rouge...
There has been marked progress in reducing poverty over the past decades. According to the most recent estimates, in 2015, 10 per cent of the world’s population lived at or below $1.90 a day. That’s down from 16 per cent in 2010 and 36 per cent in 1990. This means that ending extreme poverty is within our reach.
That is a fairly rapid decline in world poverty. Capitalism didn't create poverty, it has always been around, but if we are to say that capitalism is responsible for the state of the modern world, then capitalism seems to be doing a reasonably good job of improving things. Not perfect, obviously, but communist nations have a hard enough time keeping their own citizens from starving, much less uplifting all the other nations of the world.
Is the vast majority of that China? I'm not sure if that is true, but I'll agree that China is a major part of that.The vast majority of that is China, hell the last time I looked it up the numbers minus China got worse in absolute terms.
But then again china is schrodinger's communist, communist when the bad things happen and capitalist when the good things happen
