Hi all,

I’m seeing a lot of hate for capitalism here, and I’m wondering why that is and what the rationale behind it is. I’m pretty pro-capitalism myself, so I want to see the logic on the other side of the fence.

If this isn’t the right forum for a political/economic discussion-- I’m happy to take this somewhere else.

Cheers!

    I’d rather have the climate crisis over the nuclear one

    Why? Either way, everybody dies.

    or either of the world wars

    Instead of dying from mustard gas, we’re all going to die from heat and starvation. Yay.

    or live under a feudal system where I’m owned by the local lord in his castle.

    Today, you get to choose which lord owns you, and change lords on occasion, but other than that it’s pretty much the same thing.
