      Well, just based on one country I have personal experience living in, it seems like a multi-faceted issue. It feels like the people have their heads down and don’t speak out of fear of retribution.

      I am not flawing the communistic ideal in this case. I just wanted to point out, that no, it’s not just capitalism that is causing the problems, and I wouldn’t be posting on a hexbear server if I think capitalism is a solution to anything besides problems caused by it. Hell, I say down with democracy in it’s current iteration, we have reached its limits.

      Just to drive the point home, when Hungary wanted it’s own flavor of socialism (I guess like Tito), soviet tanks came rushing in. I am all for the common win, but this looked more like imperialism than spreading the message of love and sharing.
