    Stop using capitalism to mean liberalism

    Just say liberalism

    You’re comparing a vague economic description to a whole ass ideology

      I’m comparing capitalism to communism. If your issue is with that, I can’t help you.

      If your issue is with me using Christianity as an example of a system that is broken in a similar way to communism, perhaps I can elaborate if you’re interested.

      By ‘capitalism,’ though, I simply mean ‘capitalism.’ Sorry to disappoint you, bud, but the liberals aren’t the problem.

      Now, I don’t have a fundamental problem with capitalism, it’s just weak in that it trends towards inducing and rewarding short-term thought, but it fundamentally depends on long-term thought.

      Like anything, it can be a useful tool, but it’s definitely the principle of a “whole-ass ideology”.
