Feeding homeless people is also a form of praxis. Even if you aren’t arming for the revolution, you are still contributing to fighting against capitalism.

    I’m not calling you a pedo defender

    Ok, I dont know why you would i probably hate him more than you.

    The world isnt America and capitalism isnt only rich people. Those billionaires fuck us and run wild because of weak governance. Under another economic system with equally weak governance we’d likely see equal amounts of oppression from those with power.

    Capitalism needs to be regulated and in most countries it is. We’ve had like 50 years of completely unregulated business from the US. They need to put the beatdown on their businesses to bring them inline and establish fair practice and prosecute those who are criminal.

      Oh I see so youre a based supporter of the People’s Republic of China, the model for strong government control over capitalism.

      There is such a thing as class. There are ruling classes and servile classes, and have been for thousands of years. We live in a class society, capitalism is the system that creates class antagonisms, government is a way to manage them. But as long as there are capitalists, and they own everything, then the government will belong to them. I would rather the government belongs to us.

      No governor can save us. The amount of organization and political will that it would take to turn a psycho oppressive society like ours into a rational social democracy with nice capitalist rulers (like the Europeans have with DAVOS, lol) would be enough to run society for our selves, and get rid of the profit motive. Capitalism, as class society, can not be rational, because it is not rational for some people to rule others.

      Your proposed ideal governance is just Karen-ism, like the best we can hope for is being able to speak to a manager to solve our problems. If they won’t do anything, then we just need better managers.

      No. We dont need managers, the managers are a sign of the actual problem: bosses whose incentives are completely different than the rest of us. We need to take power rather than give it away. A better world is possible, not by giving away power but by seizing it and organizing for the benefit of all, rather than a special few.
