      Common refrain from capitalism fans is that communism can never work because humans are inherently selfish/greedy as proven by their observation that humans are selfish and greedy in the system that rewards selfishness and greed.

            I guess it gets understood a little different when it is not posted in explicitly communist spaces :/

              even so. it isn’t a joke and more a reflection of what you think. at least that what it sounds like. don’t blame the audience for the way your joke is interpreted

                  I just don’t get how saying a statement you believe is wrong without any indication of it as a joke.

                  Seems more reminiscent to people who say something shitty, then when they get complaints say “it was a joke, bro”.

                  And I personally have no patience for that. Also, there is no punchline, it is just a BS quote.
