I hope he dies soon, and I hope it hurts the entire time

I cannot believe you're making me defend Malcolm Roberts 😡

He didn't say capitalism is perfect, he said shoppers are getting a taste of what it's like in a socialist country, this is a throw back to the USSR and its empty supermarkets:

And the President of the USSR's visit to an ordinary shop in America:

When I saw those shelves crammed with hundreds, thousands of cans, cartons and goods of every possible sort, for the first time I felt quite frankly sick with despair for the Soviet people. That such a potentially super-rich country as ours has been brought to a state of such poverty! It is terrible to think of it.

So Roberts is saying our country will have empty supermarket shelves all the time if we go full socialist/communist, therefore capitalism > socialism/communism, which is not at all a deep a point, it's literally surface tier and yet you guys somehow still messed it up

Thanks again for making me defend professional fuckwit Malcolm Roberts 😡
