I think of myself as left, I could be what’s considered far left, it’s not entirely clear what the delineation is.
To me “left” means socialized medicine, solid social safety nets, subsidized university, that sort of thing.
AT-AT Assault 🏳️⚧️Do you support the complete dismantlement of all current systems of exploitation? Including capitalism? Congratulations, welcome to the far left.
@atatassault @elduvelle
I don’t mind capitalism as long as it’s regulated within a social democratic structure.
Pure capitalism is nothing but fascism in a suit.
Бджілка робе кусь@bigheadtales @atatassault @elduvelle Capitalism has nothing to do with fascism. Unregulated "wild" capitalism is certainly very bad, it leads to oligarchy and autocracy, but fascism is just wrong word. Please don't use that word as a synonym to "bad" or "oppressive", it has more specific meaning.
@bjeelka @atatassault @elduvelle
I disagree, fascism is a form of authoritarian government where the government leadership enriches themselves by subverting the population, controlling resources and markets (often by force) and giving preferential, even monopoly treatment to rich, loyal benefactors.
I would argue that fascism is the natural evolution of unregulated capitalism.
@bjeelka @bigheadtales @elduvelle
Capitalism is an authoritarian consolidation of power in the form of money. Capitalism and Fascism go hand in hand.

>That's not a definition of capitalism either.
You don't even understand the difference between a definition and a description (the latter of which is what I used). I gave you a chance, a benefit of the doubt, but you continued to prove yourself to be a dumbass conservative troll. Bye Felicia.
