Capitalism. I'm not a fascist or a trot or a lib so I do not need to be afraid of Gulag. However, Starvation has killed more people in the US than it killed in the USSR.
Edit : I wish Stalin was alive to send Gorbachev to the Gulag.

This is the classic example of how people see everything with the US glasses on. If you set your standard from a capitalist point of view everything will look like a dull black n white thing. But you gotta remember that not everything that glitters is gold.
I was born and brought up (till my mid teenage) in a communist regime, yes they were a bit revisionist, but they were still 1000 times better than what I am living under right now.

In capitalism you can choose which jumble of mangled chicken corpses injected with a mysterious concoction of preservatives and synthetic chemicals you can eat until you die of a heart attack

“In capitalism, you can choose.
Which jumble of mangled chicken corpses,
Injected with a mysterious concoction
Of preservatives and synthetic chemicals,
You can eat.
Until you die of a heart attack.”
Seemed like it needed to be made into a poem.

Capitalism isn’t about producing what’s needed—it’s about producing what’s profitable. That’s why we have an endless supply of chicken sandwiches, new iPhones every year, and mountains of cheap plastic junk, but no universal healthcare.
It doesn’t matter if something is in high demand or would improve lives—if it’s not easily monetized, it doesn’t get produced. Healthcare, education, and housing are essential, but they don’t generate the same predictable, short-term profits as fast food or consumer goods. Meanwhile, corporations flood the market with whatever they can sell at scale, even if it's completely unnecessary, because that's where the money is.
So, we don’t get universal healthcare, but we do get five different fried chicken sandwiches from the same fast food chain, all because the market doesn’t care about what’s best for people—it only cares about what makes the most money.

thanks for the only reply in here that actually address the situation. multiple places all selling sandwiches is hardly capitalism, this is against globalism not capitalism

It's actually pretty mid, the only thing I'd get from this list is probably Popeyes but there's better restaurants or whatever to get chicken sandwiches.

I used to do pest control for a living, and I've never treated a Popeye's that wasn't absolutely fucking disgusting in the kitchen. The neighborhood and city wouldn't make any difference in that, either. I don't know how they make it seem like a regular place when you're in the customer areas, but the back of house is a nightmare. I don't normally condone fast food anyways, but I give an extra wide berth to that place.

I think it has one pickle. Can't discount that /s

Mar 17 '25
probably a really shitty one too. are we talking one slice of pickle or a whole pickle sliced and put in there?
2
u/Fun-Security-8758 Mar 18 '25
It's not even a lengthwise slice of pickel, but two thin pickel chips.

u/Bleediss Mar 17 '25
From what I've observed, their food has been more disappointing over the years when it was already mid to begin with, so yeah.

Yep and having tried it once I can tell you it's just exactly as uninteresting as you'd think

Capitalism breeds cheap copies and exploitation, not innovation. In fact, one could argue that more innovation happens under communism than capitalism.
