Satire by misrepresentation of history. Of course you’ll get these kinds of reply.
If every place that tried communism ended up with killing a large percentage of their own population then it does not matter if it’s in the doctrine or not.
There is no doubt that nazis are bad. And my grandma had to flee the commies invading and bombing the crap out of her home. Now you say that commies are bad.
My main criticism is that this name calling just takes the level of the debate to a stupider level. It’s like the left is starting to bark just like Trump.
You say communists are bad.

If I enjoyed myself at work you’d charge admission instead of paying me.
Why? I can just not see them again and save myself pronouncing a handful of syllables and practicing my self control (because I for sure can’t practice with the gingerbread cookies)

Same thing that makes me try everything new. Boredom and an afternoon to spare. Was fun for a while but lost interest once I’ve noticed the patterns.


Aron Flam, Swedish comedian. Igorrr, a French avant garde metal band.
I’ve not tried any paid ones. The free ones I’ve tried have forgot what I said after a few back and forths.


Best approach: Try it. Tell us how it goes. It seems interesting to me but not interesting enough to spend an afternoon doing it.
Weird problems: some virtualising software uses specific hardware features and just outright does not work in a virtual machine.
Your limit should be how many times bigger your actual cpu or ram is compared to what is used by operating system + virtualization software.
The definition of capitalism is more or less private ownership, free markets and so forth, so norway very much qualify as capitalist.
