This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I hate that take, that dictators have an edge over democracy just because one thing worked out.

I'm just comparing central planning vs free markets. What does that have to do with dictatorships?

China is a dictatorship, and the latest disastrous "central planning" was the soviet unions, who couldn't even feed their own with their ineffectiveness.

Lol .ml are you one of the tankies?
