The amount of times capitalism gets dragged into a thread that has nothing to do with economics or politics is, quite frankly, astounding.

LOL, you think the enshittification of the Internet has nothing to do with economics or politics?! I’m almost morbidly curious about what exactly you think it does have to do with, then!

I’ll forgive you for strawmanning my position because I haven’t fully articulated it. Of course capitalism is connected to every area of our everyday lives.

But, unpopular opinion incoming, people go out of their way to bring up capitalism in every thread and it gets old fast. You could have a thread on !AskLemmy about how hard it is to be a dog-walker, and there will be comments saying how OP wouldn’t need to be a dog walker if it weren’t for capitalism! Whether you think that’s true or not is beside the point; this corner of the internet is always beating the dead horse called “capitalism bad”.
