    Yeah thats fine but federated instances are absolutely writhing with tankies who will use sentiments like this to encourage subterfuge and spread propoganda.

      I feel like if you react to any left-wing posts like a you’re the main role in a 50’s red scare propaganda video, they’ve already won.

        Thats the same logic people use to say wokeness empowers nazis.

          No it makes sense, this post mentions the corruption of the legal system and how wage labor results in the capitalist class having all the power while producing none of the labor. How is that in any way linked with authoritarianism or military action?

            The part where authoritarians claims to oppose capitalism. There are bad actors who claim the opposite of the outcome of their actions. Thats the nuance of this situation.

              Still seems strange to comment here, I mean thats a valid argument but this doesn’t seem like the right place.

                This is literally a place that explicitly bans tankies. It’s the place for sure.

      Maybe capitalism should have made sure we didn’t need 2-3 jobs all at 40 hours a week just to pay rent and groceries. Buying a home? Forget it.

          No, propaganda and subterfuge are less effective against a populace who has their needs met and live comfortably. Capitalism no longer does this for anyone but the wealthy.

            Okay but like I never made any statements in favor of capitalism. I just called Tankies a bunch of shitheads.

              You really cannot extrapolate

                Theres extrapolation and then theres you having an unrelated discussion and projecting your imaginary opponent onto me.

                  We’re on a post about capitalism. If this is too much for you, perhaps the puddle of drool before you would be more accommodating.

                    I never said the post was wrong in any way, I offered valuable advice to OP and other users here.
