Every debate i have with people on lemmy eventually ends in them resorting to 4th grade insults towards me or just straight up throwing hissy fits.
Lemmy is full of children who think anarchy is really good and has no flaws but they cannot explain how societal flaws would be fixed by it. Anarchy is just an example.

Edit: i saw a post another day on an .ml instance just like this I think calling libertarianism bad because it was never tried out in practice meanwhile I feel the need to say this conumimisim has been tried out tons of times and has failed miserably

Good examples of this is pol pots and his Khmer rouge and the failure of his regime

Stalin and leninism with the failure of the ussr

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalinism?wprov=sfla1

I don't believe in libertarianism although i do think some of its ideas can be used in practice to good success but this is my personal opinion . But I think it's a bit hypocritical to call one political system bad while believing in one which has failed miserably time and time again
