Growing up Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher told us that capitalism went hand in hand with freedom and democracy.

Today we can see that capitalists can quite comfortably walk hand in hand with authoritarianism and fascism to maintain and consolidate their wealth and power.

Reagan and Thatcher lied then, it is just glaringly evident today that all along it was a lie.

@paezha @danwentzel @the_blackwell_ninja it was glaringly obvious back then, too.
