Capitalism is actually KEY to self determination and rule. What is happening in this moment is a contorted abuse of a system designed to promote economic opportunity and wealth building.

I don’t — a perversion of a purpose requires a purpose’s being utilized towards an end it was not originally designed for. There’s no compelling argument that the end goal of capitalism has ever NOT been “infinite accumulation”
Only a mix of socialism and capitalism works. Unfettered capitalism leads to enormous companies gobbling up competition and consumers having to choices.
This. Pure capitalism may be the worst possible system, which is why basically no country has ever done it. Regulated capitalism is a very different beast.
This is why the Dems lost as big as they did. Simping for Capitalism that has always relied on the labor of the poor doesn't earn you the loyalty of that class. A class that is no longer seen as a minority of the population, if it ever was, but 99%.
