  • FUCK CAPITALISM!!!

  • Did anybody honestly take this seriously?

  • I get the point, but... Most of Europe aren't capitalists... Its mostly socialists here.

    Im from Norway, and I know that at least whole Scandinavia and Great Britainn are light versions of socialists, and NOT capitalists...

  • its because your third world isnt it?

  • capitalism is evil

  • Why don't you morons study history and see how well Socialism working for Mao. Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, etc. These were all Socialistic societies and they all failed why worse the Capitalism. Maybe you morons would think differently if you had relatives living in Nazi Germany.

  • @ucannotescape

    We communists destroyed fascism. Socialism works, human fails.

  • @ucannotescape Hitler wasn't a socialist haha!

  • This is true!

  • what a tasteless video..nothing about the cruel chinese who pollute the whole world or the cannibalistic rulers in Africa.

  • Oh my God this is so true! Damn Americans act like they own the world. Obama is no Communist but he is a Dictator who believes he owns his country and the world but lets us (the world and his own coutnrymen) think he is a man of peace when he is in fact the opposite. Bush allowed this to happen by granting extra presidental powers that became effective when Obama took office.

  • maybe we should just go isolationist then eh? ok, yea, we shouldn't have troops in the middle east I know... but then lets withdraw all troops everywhere. All US business everywhere besides the US. Lets cancel all US exports. Lets cut all US funding to 3rd world countries. Lets cut the US from giving the most humanitarian aid than any other contry. They should have never been in haiti..... no sorry i'm getting out of hand. the president intervening has been going on since the 1880s

  • capitalism is evil and disgusting

  • It's the coming revolt of the global south, which will be proletarian in character!

  • Your one sad little retard, but I do have to admit your video is kinda funny.

  • Comment removed

  • read up a book about us imperialism and stop making and ass out of yourself.

  • Hmm, all the aid all Western states together send to the third world doesn't equate 1/20th of what comes back in debt money alone. And it's not like there's no string attached to the aid and they're doing it for the love of humanity or something, lol.

  • You really are a fucktard. Lets stop all the aid we give to rest of the world tomorrow. Nearly a billion people around the world will die within a week.

    Maybe if those 3rd world countries had a little capitalism of their own they wouldnt need our god damn fucking charity.

    Unless you really think a system that doesnt generate any wealth and forcibly distributes poverty is a better idea.

    Other wise plug in a curling iron and fuck your self with it.

  • Newsflash: apart from a handful countries like Cuba and Libya, all of the third world has capitalism. I have no clue why when people hear 'capitalism' they think only about the handful capitalist countries that have become succesful, and not about free market paradises like Africa, Haiti, Central America, etc.

  • But anyway, my point was just that most of what they call 'aid' should better called investment, not 'aid' as in 'charity'. I have no clue why so many people assume our corporations and governments to be some kind of humanist charities instead of being just organizations acting according to their own interests.

  • You really have no idea what is going on man.

  • if you really appreciate kibboutzim, the only place in the world where a non capitalistic world exists and grows, then fight these sons of bitches in yours who claim death to israel just by jealousy facing their absolute non results for centuries in trying to build non-capitalism whereas israelis do it instead of neighbors always trying to destroy israel.

  • muslims learned you well how to hate yourselves. Communists are sold to islam, wake up !!!

  • @lapaixmaintenant:

    1. Marx said that religion is like opium for the people. And he HAD ideological reasons to say that.

    2. We cannot be sold to Islam since orthodox branch of it seems to be a way anti-equalitarian (sexism, homophobia).

    3. Sent a lot of greetings to Kibbutzs. True Communists are NOT enemies of the Israel, we are just enemies of the war (between states or nations) and capitalism.

  • The United States was founded as and capitalist empire that conquered the northern hemisphere.

    I repeat my fellow americans:

    The United States was founded as and capitalist empire that conquered the northern hemisphere.

    And the american civil war was about economics, not slavery.

  • Proletários do Mundo, uni-vos! Vamos fuder o capitalsimo!

    Saudações Camaradas!

  • I see a butthurt

  • you suck

  • Que te retires te digo, so aficionado.

    Y de paso, deja de perseguirme. Soy heterosexual, lo siento.

  • hehe pretty much :P

  • Yes! Dangerous capitalism!

    Hehe this is quite childish, but amusing anyhow.

  • Dangerous Capitalism!!!

  • workers of the world unite! you have nothing too lose but your chains!

  • fuck capitalism

  • 100% Agree....fuck capitalism, fucking exploiters of the innocent masses, enslaving them to get richer off of them.

  • parece una coña, pero el video es una representación muy veraz del actual sistema explotador capitalista

  • lollololollololollololollololo­lolollololollolollolololololol­olloololololollololololololool­ollollolololololololloloololoo­lololololololololllllllollolol­ololololololololololololololol­ololololololoooooooooooooooooo­olooooollllooollolololoooooooo­ooooooooooolllllllllllllllolol­ooolollolololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lolololololololololollolololoo­lololololololololololololololo­lolollllllloooooooooooooollolo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololo

  • this video is so fucking funny and ironic, this world is going soooo crazey lately... i dunno wheter to cry or to laugh about.

  • That's pretty funny.

  • Canada is like a large state. I don't see why the US don't just take it, and divide it into two states; Quebec and Toronto

  • "They talk about the failure of socialism but where is the success of capitalism in Africa, Asia and Latin America?"

    Fidel Castro

    The "success" of capitalism in the USA and western Europe is done be the exploitation in the  Africa, Asia and Latin America. And the "success" is also success only for limited numer of citizens (1/3 of people in the USA doesn't have medi-care a lot of inteligent people there cannot afford to attend university, lot of people are homeless, poor, etc...)

  • WHERE IS MY COUNTRY!!! OH TEH NOES!!!

  • i'm glad bush is out xD

  • lol nice channel but true !

  • have they ever?

  • HEY! CHECK IT OUT! NO CANADA!

  • Capitalism makes people greedy!

  • No, religion makes people greedy.

  • money and religion does

  • I like capitalism and materialism.

    I like to own stuff.

    Communism is fine but not with the current followers who love "armed revolution" and that shit.

    I won't support violent mobs.

  • You do not need to go violent way, just read Marx and Trotsky, vote for CPUSA and debate with friends about economy, moral and direct democracy (dictators and their lovers discredited our idea, it is more about the direct democracy made be people in worker-counciles called "soviets").

  • Hjernespreng, owning stuff and vulgar materialism is for kiddies, you do not want to enjoy "The big idea"? And reach the final - most humane - stage of society where all people will work due to their abilities and get due to their needs? The classless stateless society - the dream of all communists and anarchists... When we will reach it - it will be the end of human history (in sence as the end of the fight between the oppressing and the oppressed). And you can help to make this dream real...

  • Yeah tell that to the victims of the GULag

  • I told that Stalinism isn't communist movement in my eyes, doesn't I? BTW do you know, that "democracy" and "democrat" are now insults in the Iraq (1.3 mil.people died there)? Every idea could be abused and discredited. But the true communist idea have good roots. Which cannot be told about the right wing or the far-right wing.

  • uh yeah i know many people have died there.

    But they weren't put in consentration camps as "Enemies of (insert ideology)".

    And the numbers that died in GULag's were higher than the holocaust. MUCH higher.

    And it seems that Communism is but a vain dream.

    Because NO ONE have been able to create "true" communism.

  • Ever heard names like "Abu Graib" or "Guantanamo"? There are american concentration camps all round the world. Now, in 2009. Under Bush's administration there "disappeared" more than 20.000 people (now, in 2009, under USA flag and with silent agreement from all Europe).

    More 50 milions people are victims of the Nazism (done by 6 years on 1 continent)

    Both capitalism and so called "socialism" (indeed state-capitalism) are responsible for cca 200 milions to 1500 milions victims.

  • 14 milions people are starved to death in Africa per year! Now, in 2009. Those are victims of the capitalism. As I told - capitalism look very effective on the first sight, but cannot work without massive inter- and intra-country exploitation. Capitalism is based on the exponential grow of all production. This is absurd when we live on a planet with finite surface and with finite resources.

    I am completely against the Stalinist experiment.

  • I am not telling "capitalism is very bad, so USSR was completely OK". No, both capitalism and fake-socialism sucks. I hate this long-time debates about who killed more. It is disgusting. True socialism can be build without harming single person (just by economic reforms made by government)

    But there is a way to go - Venezuela, Nepal, Sweden, Canada (the last two are capitalist, but at least fair-minded capitalist)

    And examples from the history - Hussites, Paris Commune. And in present Kibucs.

  • The leaders of most of those countries are amongst the worst capitalists there is.

    Take Zimbabwe for example.

    Also you have countries like Kongo and Somalia that are under the effects of poor rule AND civil wars.

  • "Guantanamo" is a prison for terrorists and it only holds about a 200 people.

    And(thanks to Obama)It is gonna get shut down within a year.

    Though those concentration camps are not there because of someone political ideology.

    In Difference from the GULag.

    Under every Communist rule there have been Authoritarian dictators and horrible rule.

    Communism have been around for just about a century and have been in a lot less countries.

  • 1. "prison for terrorists". Most of them are guilty only for being Arab/Muslim and living near someone other, or having similar name. It was examples. 20.000 people died so I guess the complete content of american concentration camps must be much bigger. They didn't died because of some ideology, they died because of capitalism - which is a socio-economic model based on the human greed and predatorism.

  • BTW: who's worse someone who deny crimes in the deep past or somebody who deny crimes which take place just NOW?

    2. Would you be so kind and stop calling fake-socialist dictatorship "Communism"? There are a lot of true communists on the YT and it is an unneccessary insult to us. It was Stalinism.

    3. Leaders in the most African, Arabic and South Asia countries are just puppet governments loyal to the USA and Europe exploitators.

  • 3...

    US and European capitalists live from resources obtained from these dictators who exploit their people for that. That's what this vid is about. About the brutal famine and wars caused by exploitation. There is also intra-country exploitation - The rulling class exploit the working class.

  • lets make capitalism history

  • fuck usa,fuck capitalism!

  • lol WTF?

  • fuck capitalism !!

  • nice video, lol, can't stop laughing, sometimes bloody reality turns out to be joke knowing that some people are so blind to ignore it, and this animation really makes it funny and at the same time provides simple message with indepth truth. I understand most of points u trying to make out, expect something going to europe from africa, here what are you trying to show?

  • I know your not a Communist or Anarchist but anyone againts capitalism is my comrade.

  • when i criticize capitalism and receive in answers a title of comunist, it makes me wonder about your mentality.

    Both of you defend capitalism as it is, and criticize this video that tries (in a simple way) to show its consequences.

    So i can assume tha both of you are happy with the live you got and to keep that you would do anything you could, no matter what.

    Wealth is not iqually divided over the world, it means that if you have more, someone else has less.

  • Along with some political choice made in the past, comes an interference made with differents kinds of power that US and Europe did with others. By war, by political pressure, commercial pressure...whatever.

    this video is an comic way to criticize problens inherent to the capitalism.

    If you wanna some real arguments, just read some of the almost 100 post for this video, here i paciently explain for others like yorself what is capitalism.

  • read my comment that i left one day ago and reply me. i asked you a question.

  • There are problems in every political scheme or whatever you want to call it... a ruling I suppose. The difference between socialism and capitalism is that socialism has 1 ruler ruling everyone capitalism had many rulers, if you will, ruling many people and if one slips up the supervisor aka government can come in put them up. Not so for Com/Social.

    Don't get me wrong there are massive problems with capitalism but there are bigger issues in Communism hell even China is becoming capitalist.

  • Well we wouldn't be talking now if it wasn't for capitalism... and there would be no real reason to push things forward or invest in R&D because there would be no competition if we did have socialism. If your going to debate an issue get real about it. Socialism as good as it sounds and as good as it's intentions does not allow the people freedoms that we have under liberalism which is the best thing going around in my opinion.

  • you better read the almost 100 post before even say anything. This class is not exclusive...sorry

  • sad to have to explain a little and quitte simple video to someone that calls himself an intellectual..but here it goes:

    as you can see in the video, europe when europe appers it already exploites africa, has an example of what it did to the rest of the word with their imperialism. Today, 3rd word countries, or "developing" countries, are paying the bill.

    US, being the country that have become, tks to its peculiar history as a colony, did pratice a modern kind of imperialism...

  • It does not takes territories, but forces comercial "agreements" with power.

    Of course i´m simplifying history here...i´m sure an intecletual like yourself can realize that.

    but as an short example, take a look at the formation of the dictatorial governments in south america last century. The fear of have a "backyard" red, made US interfere over most people choice. (freedom of choice...allright)..and by the way, prosperity of who?

  • About the bombing in the video, a monkey would realize that i´m talkin about Gulf Wars, invasion of Iraque, "terrorism", etc...

    just keep fooling yourselves...

    i kind have simpaty for puppets...

    by the way:

    I DO NOT SUPORT COMUNISM OR SOCIALISM

    (read the answer i have to the next post.)

  • hey dude,

    i´m writting down on your own language and you still can´t understand. I´m not socialist or whatever.

    i just don´t agree with every aspects of captalism. and i´m also trying to show you, rich kids, that someone has being payng the wonderfull life you got.

    and now you gonna tell me that the US is africa´s savior? came on man...please!

    sure US send thousands, billions of dollar to africa and others poor countries, but they do it just to be nice?...

  • radicals wouldnt be targetiung you had you just satyed home.. ever wonder why swizterland has never had a 9/11?

  • if you do remenber does chapters, you may try to remenber its content.

    get out the lausy library you are in and see the world.

    or you gonna denie the imperialism? or its consequences?

    economy is now in crises, US and Europe are the most affected, can you realize why?

    or even why US crises is affecting the world?

  • so just get a book of south american history.

    Read that and than we will talk about american imperialism.

    or just read the newspaper. Or War in Iraque is to kill terrorists? you can´t be that naif.

  • Let's talk about European imperialism while we are at it. How about Chinese imperialism in Africa today? How about Soviet imperialism during the Cold War? Face it the USA is an imperialist nation, but, no more so than any other country with power.

  • No, no,even big countries can be self-sufficient.Or better said big countries are supposed to be self-sufficient. I agree about the European imperialism - USA is a product of this imperialism. I agree about the Chinese capitalism/imperialism in Africa (But Africa is exploited by the USA and EU much more), China truly isn't socialist. Soviet Union wasn't good example of the socialism (or better said wasn't socialistic after 1924),but the scale of their exploitation was much much less than the US.

  • Also Cuba, Venezuela or Nepal aren't exploiting any other country (who can exploit Cuba, when under embargo?) and their economics are relative good compared to world average. E.g. Cuban healtcare and education is free and both world-class, US healt-care and education maybe also isn't bad, but isn't free and you know more than 1/3 of people in the USA cannot afford the medi-care. The other thing is a political freedom. But in Nepal and Venezuela there are multi-party system and free press.

  • It is not about country-size, it's about the economic system. Capitalism looks good on the first sight but is ineffective and could work only in phase of "exponential grow" and only while exploiting other countries (and/or working class in the original country). The solution is simple: Workers of the world unite! But, wokers, be careful about stalinist-traitors! Democracy must be guarded by multiple control mechanisms during the (necessary) transition from capitalism to the socialism.

  • hey, brainman, there are several kinds of imperialism. Europe did one, US does another (wich now everybodies does)

    by the way, last year US accused Brazil of being that, cause a brazilian drink cia wanted to buy budweiser. They would buy an "american tradition"...it just made me laugh, how ironic, isn´t it?!

    if you are an american, i´m deeply sad (or happy, thus you really are a puppet) cause you don´t even know yours country history...

    the world, dude, is bigger than US. History too.

  • it doesn´t look like.

    US does have good thinks...

    but unfortunattly, or the opposite, most americans have being brainwashed. I know it for a fact, i lived in there exactly when US was planing Iraque 1st invasion. Remember talking to the people, trying to understand it reasons, and all i got was the same accusation you are making and "if you don´t like US, leave it." Well, i did.

    the imperialism that the brazilian cia is accused is indeed ridiculous.

  • but the accusation came out from north americans like yourself. based in some kind of patriotism that will not accept critics. and that happens abouve reason.

    You did ask how US could be imperialist if it was a colony, well my friend..seens that you don´t realy know yours country history. at least not in comparasion with the rest of the world, wich would be quitte heathy to know. Would make you get down a few steps you think you are in.

  • the imperialism forced on people is colonization, ecomomic imperialism is different. it does not take it by force (like US is doing in Iraque), it cames with political agreements that creates an economic depending system. But the question is not that simple and i do not get payied (yet)to teach you. Actually, i´m kind of giving it up, after all you are an intelectuall and can´t look abouve your onw nose.

  • by the way.

    Economic imperialism worked for US. Some "developing" countryies tryies to do the same.

    But there are also an open market, wich is good.

    the problem is that the Cias are abouve governments. but in this crises period, wich started in US and affects the holle world, tks to it enormous consumism, we see governments helping out the economy. Seens that the invisible hand is not that invisible. And bush is a bit more "comunist" than me.

  • Where's Canada?

  • yep

    i forgot...or it wasn´t important to this video...like australia, japan, etc...

  • communist is good for the peoples, it depends alot on the leader.

  • One of my favorite videos

  • ☭

  • Tell me what is your definition of communism?

  • yeah..think so..

    but ho said anything about communism?

  • nice

  • You clearly have no idea what Capitalism is or how it works. I suggest you spend your time understanding and examining the aspects of Capitalism and Free Exchange (By reading Atlas Shrugged), rather than making stupid YouTube videos which make you look like a dumbass.

  • hey genius, read the comments before yours. the class you need of capitalism, free exchange, or exploitation, is there.

    if you really are an intelectual, it weel be a quickly read for you.

    by the way, a guy called egoist defending capitalism, teaches us a lot about "free exchange"..

  • "read the comment before yours". Which one? And which one relates to the next part? The one right before mine just says "Lol, politics."

    "The class you need of capitalism is there...". What does that even mean?

    "Called egoist defending capitalism..." Yes, capitalism is egotistical. Every man and woman should be an egoist. It leads to the benefit of all. Egoism is virtue. As long as you understand what egoism is - acting to your fullest potential as a rational, productive, thinking human being.

  • well...i realy don´t need to say much...every one can read what you´re saying and also read the 93 coments before yours, where true and racional dialogues happens.

  • Egoism leads zo the benefit of all. Shut up asshole. Please, before you begin talking about the positive aspects of capitalism go to a country which is really destroyed by capitalism. I hate guys like you who come from a rich country. Never left it and think that they've seen the world.

    Guys like you who watch Tv, see people die on Tv because of money and say I'm sorry for that thus they have no idea how suffering of capitalism is.

    It's not for everyone's benefit.

  • man..i´m starting to like you...

    were do you get these ideas?

    egoism=good (and shall reach the benefit of everyone)

    capistalism never existed

    amazing!

    tell me..is this some kind of new religion, or cult...please, tell me, i may join just to have some good laughs

  • WTF is capistalism?

    First, egoism is good. An egoist (like, me, say) invents a new product (let's say, the cure of cancer), soely because I want a profit. I sell it, and earn that profit. That is an egotisical move, but (and this isn't justification, just explanation), a bunch of people don't have cancer.

    Capitalism is a system where nobody has the legal power to initiate force. In every instance in history, someone has had the legal right to do that. So, capitalism has never existed.

  • ??

    please!!

    tell me the name of your church!

  • Lol, politics.

  • I have no idea what you were trying to prove with that cartoon, but it's inaccuracies and exaggerations made me laugh.

  • Vote Democrat - its easier then working

  • where is...CANADA? lol

  • what a stupid piece of crap.. why don't you take an Economics class?

  • CanadaIsFree (8 months ago):

    this is the stupidest and the most childish video i've ever seen on youtube. go take an economics class, learn, because you have no knowledge clearly.

  • and then:

    eduardomenin (8 months ago)

    oh...i´m so sorry i forgot Canada...i´ve already said that. I´ve nothing against it, but in this childish animation, it wasn´t important, like some countries in orient wasn´t to. But if you desagree with this ecomomic perspective, why don´t you try to teache us some like some others did? If you realy understand what you are saying, please, explain us! I can´t wait!

  • so...if you wanna criticize, better be updated first.

    read the whole dialogue, please

    you may get your economic class there

  • so true

  • over simplified, but still fun.

  • Wow! This is the most communist piece of bullshit I have ever seen.

  • ok...i´ve tought governments buying banks was a communist act...

    but if you say so...

    otherwise, just try to read some newspaper.

  • I do read the newspaper. I read two different ones that are different in their political views. San Fransisco Chronicle and the Press Democrat. I don't like communism and socialism because it is a threat to democracy. It wants to take away the power of the people and give it to the government.

  • it´s a good reason not to like communism.

    i don´t like it either...

    but nowadays, states are giving money to banks, in exchange for their actions...wierd isn´t it?

  • Marx would smile wide.

  • Do you honestly believe that America is a democracy?!!?

  • It is not a complete democracy such as the democracy of ancient Athens, however it is the closest thing to democracy with a population of 300 million.

  • we are a republic actually. Democracy=mob rule.

  • Haha nice vid, capitalism is the worst happend to mankind!

  • Yeah, I'm with Anna. This video isn't about Capitalism, it's about a racist, bulimic whale that hates Yurrup.

  • thanks for agreeing :D ... i'm hoping you weren't being sarcastic :L

  • europe is the whale´s best friend... they are eating it together.

  • this confused me ...

    since when did white wales eat the world?!

  • it will happens next year...

  • haha :P

    sounds like a good death to be honest may have to have that on my gravestone =]

    Anna Seymour: murdered by a giant whale while trying to save the world, RIP

  • thats about right!

  • i definetly don´t think money corrups. But power does. And they walk side by side.

    that´s why this video still calling capitalism, cause the race to money made powerfull countries walk all over others. meaning: imperialism.

  • But one kind allowed by capitalism, after being support by monarchy and so far...

    And for the record, russia has done the same thing. they called it by differents names, they started it differently...but the results was the same.

    nowadays, everybody does that. Not the countries itself, but their companies... the State are only called if there are any "problem". Wich may be different according to your point of view...

  • So simply youre just against imperialism, not like "OOH MONEY CORRUPTS!!".

    Well, you might say america is fucking this world up and stuff, with all those wars and all. But aye, he aint the only one. For example russia has been in the race for quite some decades now. Remember checenya? Now what they are doing there is not even close to the americans. Thats a frikken holocaust.

    Americans are just greedy. Next time put a name that suits the video, please.

  • Hahaha!! I loved it.

  • Okay, this sucks. Nothing wrong with capitalism.

    The only problem in this world is people who think they can live happily with a shitty job.

    Go 2 school, get a fucking college degree, and get a job that pays well. After that i doubt you will be whining about how evil capitalism is. In fact youll be afraid of some commies coming to take the money youve worked for, and distributing it evenly with some bozos whove never done anything meaningful with their lives.

  • The problem is that to get a fucking degree in capitalism you must be able to afford it. True communists are trying to change the world, this is not excactrly "never done anything meaningful with their lives"

  • Yes, you must be able to afford it. For that you have to work. And i mean WORK not drink vodka 4 times a week and come to work drunk.

    True communists... by this theory there has only been 4 communists on earth. Karl marx, lenin, stalin (he actually wasnt there for the socialism) and mao zedung(whatev). Everyone else just takes it because their too fucking lazy to work, its all about the collectivism where "everones" equal and share everything. The weak feed off the strong. Ever heard that?

  • both of you shold read the other comments before saying those bullshits...

    but it´s fine by me, just keep watching and commenting...

  • If you find it bullshit, how about saying an argument? The easyest way out is saying someones stupid. Just give me a fucking argument from your side. The other comments have nothing to do with my views.

  • calm down man! don´t need to get too nervous, don´t wanna give you a heartattack.

    the arguments you wanna are said in the others comments i´ve answered. for instance, just try the hole dialogue i´d with natdavi.

    But you got have some pacience...the text is long...can you read something that big?

  • I didnt actually get mad, and natdavi doesent have anything more to say.

    mabye a little, because when im arguing with a friend it always comes to an end of "im right and youre stupid".
