They love it until you say the evil word

What would you say to people like someone I know (who gets all information from fb and xitter) who insists that we arent in capitalism, we are in corporatism, and TRUE free market capitalism is the end all be all (Ancap, Basically).

I explain over and over how it DOESNT work because of capitalisms inherent nature to create monopolies and the ownership class but they just say a free market cant have a monopoly. I disagree. But theyre not really worth arguing with, lol.

Side note, they are poor and make financially stupid decisions, generally they think theyre right about everything because they watch youtube. Its frustrating.

Louis Theroux their ass? (Keep asking “why?” type questions as if you’ll join their side of they can just explain it, but the real goal is to unpick their fuzzy logic by getting stupid to argue with it’s self)
Thatd probably work but I dont have time for that, they would argue literally all day haha
Nobody does to be fair, other than Louis himself, and his interviews take like an hour

Step 1. Ask a question, and make it surprisingly genuine.

Step 2. Don’t react. Don’t retract but don’t attack. There’s only one rule from here on out. Keep. Eye. Contact.
