    If we were to have an honest discussion we would certainly have to agree on a shared definition of capitalism. So I don’t really care what tankies do or don’t do.

    The point of asking the question wasn’t to troubleshoot capitalism ad hoc. It was to develop discussion around these ideas and inspire critical thinking. Unfortunately, most would rather stroke their ego then explore alternative ways of thinking.

      I mean there are some pretty fair criticisms of capitalism in the sub. You also did not provide your own definition of capitalism up top either, so we can only speculate what you think it is and we can only answer what we observe it to be.

      I think I made my case on why I think the way I think.

        Well, what I assertain from your posts is you think a monarchy and capitalism are interchangable and that capitalism is about establishing corporations to run them like dictatorships. This is what I observe. If I were to assess if that’s objectively correct I would think,“I might disagree.”
