the fucking horrifying thing is that even people who are actively and obviously being harmed by capitalism will defend it, and if you keep refuting their arguments they just start panicking because they haven’t actually thought about it, they just know they have to support the status quo at all costs.
For me it’s the fact that my people have always been sent to the gulags in so-called socialist countries. And I definitely don’t want to become a modernday “Jews for Hitler”. YMMV if you have a different background.
I sympathize. However i’ll have to disagree (i’m an anarchist, so i don’t even like the “so-called socialist countries” you speak of ;))
Capitalism relies on exploiting the global south. Which, since my people mostly live there too (including I) i very obviously, dislike this. I could say the same as you for the opposite.
You don’t get it bro. Capitalism is awesome, because i’m above in the social hierarchy! Under socialism i would just be a normal peasant.
… What do you mean, it’s unfair for everyone else? Fuck’em.

Are your people rich or just right wing?
Big “he’s only deporting illegals!!!” vibes here
Answer the question. What so u mean my people
Tell me more about the Cuban and Chinese Jewish gulags, and why a sub named Flippanarchy is supposed to give a shit about Marxists anyways.
Then ask yourself what economic model the Nazis followed, Mr “I don’t want to be part of the Jews for Hitler”
