Why are so many people against socialism/communism?

are you ethnically Chinese?

No I’m mixed . White dad black mom

I’m not wealthy , my family is pretty wealthy . You could say I live off my parents wealth. My mom used to be HR for some division of Pfizer and my dad has like 2 pHDs and has taught all over the world. But, also you trying to insult me by calling me a “commie” isn’t gonna fly. I started the post to just get an insight into how people view communism/socialism. Why stoop so low to name calling?

sorry about that it's just my usual way but i'll be nice. Communism is a failed system and you seem to like it, that's why.
You know that you're speaking with a Capitalistic American right? Communism is for drones and losers.

because your post about flying all over the world and needing to be in a certain tax brackets made it appear to me that you were boasting of your wealth.

So your parents are wealthy but not you, although i guess you'll inherit all that wealth when they kick the bucket.

Do you have any siblings though? I only got 8% but another sibling got 20% and another 30%...they fucked me till the very end and i never knew about it all those years i visited my Father in the nursing home as a dutiful son...what a hassle in my life. I figured everything would be equally shared.

Sorry, I guess having a psychology and a neuroscience degree and being in graduate school to be an occupational therapist makes me a moron. And I’m also sorry if you never get to travel anywhere and experience other parts or the world instead of your own echo-chamber.

I have my suspicion on Grim but not 100% convinced, yet

Well I live in a managed complex , no HOA lol but yeah I don’t have any guns. The laws are a little more strict in New York plus my neighborhood is pretty safe, low crime rate. I definitely would own one if I lived in the rough part of town

you can get a gun in nyc if you desire and have a perfectly clean record, it just takes time.

My parents aren’t dead or dying. I only have 1 brother. Also I wouldn’t put my parents in a nursing home but I suppose that’s cultural differences. I’m sorry the fucked you over though. My dad was dirt poor when he grew up in a trailer park in the South. It’s seriously tragic seeing some of the poorest counties in the United States. I guess I can understand how that comes across as me boasting my wealth but I’m always open to being humbled.

I have a clean record I’m just not mentally sound according to my psychiatrist so that gets pretty tricky when they look stuff.

i admit a lot of the US has high levels of poverty but it's not your problem, it's theirs! Isn't capitalism great?

Correct ,everything is bullshit when you think about it for too long.

you definitely will not get a gun in nyc then. I'm probably more crazy than you but i never went to a shrink so it's always been under the radar.

If I didn’t have financial stability I probably would have offed myself by now. It’s such a mindfuck to be poor in America because you could be one hard working motherfucker and still end up dirt poor. It’s literally like the odds are stacked against you at all times.

I didn’t ask to see a fucking shrink. They made me talk to one after I accidentally od’d on alcohol one night. Literally my first time drinking and I wanted to prove myself but if I’m being honest I’m a fucking lightweight when it comes to alcohol. I only weight 120 lbs 😭

120 pounds wow i assume (hope) you're a female then? I believed i was speaking with a man.

... having a psychology and a neuroscience degree and being in graduate school to be an occupational therapist...

Wait... you're not psychologically sound enough for gun ownership but you have a neuroscience and psychology degree?

No I’m a dude, I’m pretty stunted growth wise. Also I’m a swimmer so you kind of can’t get fat otherwise you do worse at your sport.

Almost like mentally ill people can also go to school and get an education to better themselves?

BS, America is where winners make it. If you're dirt-poor it's strictly your fault. If you want to be taken care of move to China.
