Busan BabeI realized how garbage capitalism was when it was explained to me in this way: there is no true freedom under capitalism because capitalism requires there to be someone be oppressed and at the bottom.
Chris 🇲🇽@melaninbarbie this is a great explanation wow
@Communist It clicked instantly and that's when I was like 'yeah that shit gotta go'
@melaninbarbie Yeah, that is a great explanation, especially when it's used on someone who doesn't know much about capitalism/communism. I'm going to use it to convert my liberal friends haha
DesaKnight✰@melaninbarbie I don't think Capitalism requires that, but instead encourages/causes it. idk
@DesaKnight Capitalism requires it, without it it doesn't function. It's a key component. Someone is always being exploited.
Death.To.Capitalism@DesaKnight @melaninbarbie capitalism creates a class divide. Those who own the means of production and workers.
Workers by default are opressed.
Mysl@melaninbarbie "Freedom is only privilege extended, unless enjoyed by one and all."
@melaninbarbie In theory it's a system for the few. In practice, it's a system for the very few. Over time it's a system for fewer and fewer.
This is why capitalists hate communism. Communism names capitalism.
Capitalism wants people to confuse it for commerce.
