@zleap Hacked is a very strong word. The dude literally just typed in the standard signup link which had been removed from the main page... Its not hacking, its stupidity on the site maintainers part, nothing more.

@Hyolobrika I know you didnt. It was a general statement.

@realcaseyrollins on second look perhaps its less obvious than I first thought. One would have to calculate the actual slopws here to really say I suppose. It also isnt the best graph considering it is cut off a bit too early anyway.

@realcaseyrollins You are looking at the GDP, thats the wrong thing, you need to look at the rate of change of the GDP, the slow of the lines not their position.

@realcaseyrollins I am of the opinion that communism generally fails both economically and in terms of personal freedoms.

In the charts I provided you can clearly see that the rate of increase int he GDP is significantly higher post-communism than pre-communism for most of those countries.

@stux She is thinking right now "holy shit vampires are real and I just turned into one!"

@realcaseyrollins Perhaps, this is largely why I asked you what the indicators should be and then provided whatever that was.

@kefhekjfhe

Used for when you both exist and posses something at the same time.

@michaeldstover

@realcaseyrollins I really like the innovation they are going for here. Though the simplicity may prove to be fatal.

@michaeldstover Lies!

@realcaseyrollins

In that case here you go, a graph of previously communist countries showing GDP per capita. You can clearly see how the growth of GDP changed pre and post communism here as well as the cost of the transition itself.

@Mikonos

You've effectively just given free advertising to Trump to block an instance that doesnt even exist on the fediverse yet and may never.

I totally get why you'd block such an instance, no one wants political spam from a politician. But can we at least wait until its more than just a rumor before we start giving Trump free advertising.

This is literally playing into his game.
