Want to know the difference between communism and capitalism?
You don't need a history book. Look no further than the Korean Peninsula.
In 1953 the Korean War came to ceasefire and one country became two.
Same people.
Same language. Same history.
Same starting line.
The North chose communism.
The South chose capitalism.
Here is the scorecard 72 years later.
ECONOMY
- South Korea: 14th largest economy in the world.
- North Korea: 150th.
- Per person, South Korea ranks 37th. North Korea ranks 214th.
- In 2025 South Korea exported $709.7 billion in goods. A record.
- North Korea's total trade with China, its biggest partner, was $2.7 billion.
- South Korea exports that much in less than a day and a half.
HEALTH
- South Korea: #5 in the world for life expectancy.
- North Korea: #136.
- Be born north of the line and you lose 10 years of life.
- A North Korean child is 6 times more likely to die before age 5.
FOOD
- The UN says about 46% of North Koreans are undernourished.
- That is nearly 12 million people.
TECH
- South Korea: #4 most innovative country on Earth.
- Two South Korean companies make 70% of the world's memory chips.
- South Korea sold $173 billion in chips last year alone.
- 97% of South Koreans are online.
- In North Korea, fewer than 10,000 people can reach the internet. That is less than 0.1% of the country.
LIGHTS
- Look at the peninsula from space at night.
- South Korea glows.
- North Korea is almost completely dark. Even the capital is a dim dot.
FREEDOM
- Freedom House scores South Korea 83 out of 100.
- North Korea scores 3. One of the lowest on Earth.
EXPORTS
- South Korea gives the world Samsung, Hyundai and Blackpink.
- North Korea gives the world rockets… crappy ones.
Same people.
Same land.
Different system.
Watch the line.
Want to know the difference between socialism and capitalism? Part II
Look at Venezuela and Chile.
In 1977, Venezuela was twice as rich as Chile.
It sits on the most oil on Earth.
Chile chose free markets. Venezuela chose socialism.
Today:
- Chile is 4x richer per person.
- Minimum wage: Chile $545 a month. Venezuela 15 cents.
- Inflation: Chile 3.5%. Venezuela 475%.
- Chileans live 8 years longer.
- Freedom score: Chile 95. Venezuela 13.
- Nearly 8 million Venezuelans have fled. Over 700,000 went to Chile.
The country with the most oil on the planet can't keep the lights on.
Same continent.
Same language.
Different system.
Watch the line.
If you're upset that America removed Maduro, ask yourself what side you're really on.

💯 Great illustration. The contrast between capitalism and socialism couldn’t be clearer. The real-world examples speak for themselves.

Libi Cohen-Meguri was murdered on October 7th at just 22 years old.
She went to dance at the Nova festival and was shot by Hamas terrorists while trying to escape on Route 232.
At 8:11 AM, she called her parents:
“I’ve been shot in the stomach, I’ve been shot in the arm, I’m losing blood. I’m going to die.”
In calm and heartbreaking words, she understood the end had come.
She asked to speak to her twin brother Tomer and little sister Maya:
“I’m going to die. Just listen.
I love you, Yariv — the best dad I could’ve had.
Mom, please stop screaming, just listen — you’re the best mom we could have asked for.
Don’t forget to be a good mom to Tomer and Maya.
Tomer, how lucky we were to live life together. I love you.
Maya, never forget you are the treasure of my life.”
Her parents begged her to lie on the road and pretend to be dead. She did.
But the terrorists saw her move.
“Mom, they’re coming to shoot me again...”
Screams in Arabic. A long burst of gunfire.
And the call was cut.
Alone on the road divider, her body was riddled with bullets at point-blank range.
Murdered in cold blood.
But Libi was light. Joy. Love.
A proud and outstanding IDF infantry officer, full of life and laughter, always giving to others.
Her photos radiate kindness.
Her memory will live forever.

My mother has never been comfortable with hugs.
She’s a 58-year-old Japanese woman. The kind of person who still bows after the delivery driver’s truck has already driven away.
Last spring, a friend from Texas came to visit.
He was about 6’3”, wore cowboy boots, and called my mother “ma’am.”
She absolutely loved that part.
Then he hugged her.
My mother froze.
Arms straight down. Eyes wide open.
After he left, she quietly asked me,
“Are all Americans like that?”
“Well, pretty much.”
She thought about it for a while.
“…That’s nice.”
Two months later, I went home for her birthday.
My mother opened the front door.
She looked nervous.
Then, out of nowhere, she hugged me.
For about two seconds.
She let go, straightened her apron, and said,
“Your dinner’s getting cold.”
I’m in my twenties.
As far as I can remember, that was the first time my mother had ever hugged me.
Later, my father told me something.
Apparently, she’d been watching YouTube videos to learn how Americans hug.
He said she’d even been practicing on a pillow.
Texas.
You have no idea what you’ve started.

Bro, @TinyButFierce06 @TheCommonNerds Gryffin and I traveled through Time with history of the World part 1 this Friday and @SensBeing created this!
After my Red Hood Unreal Short, I might just use this for inspiration from my next one!
Thank you 🙏

Koenig portrayed Ensign Pavel Chekov in The Original Series, all six original Star Trek films, and voiced President Anton Chekov in #StarTrekPicard!

I didn’t know they were family. Didn’t change the performances. As long as they earn the role and perform well, I don’t see a problem. Knowing Sylvester Stallone’s work ethic and knowledge of the business, I’m sure she is expected to outwork and perform her peers.
The new season is starting off strong.

We’re saddened to learn that Eric Bauza, the Emmy Award-winning voice of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and countless other beloved characters, has passed away at 46.
Earlier this month, Bauza joined fellow voice actors and fans for The Real Ghostbusters’ 40th anniversary charity celebration.
Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and colleagues
Someone asked me why I am on 4 streams/week. Since I sometimes leave shows early or go quiet because of pain.
"Why do it if it hurts?"
Truth is I will be in pain anyway. Using the energy might make it a lil worse but if I prefer to be with my friends and not alone for the spikes
