    Because this post is already three days old, nobody is going to notice—never mind read—your wall of text, so why did you take the time to write it? To convince me personally?

    You are wrongly defining capitalism according to Marxist word play games.

    Marx didn’t write thick volumes on capital—building on Smith’s & Ricardo’s & etc’s works (while discarding their errors)—just to play word games, nor did/do the Marxian economists who have continued its development.

    Both Putin and Zelinski are part of the same aristocracy, and they are working together, while pretending to be enemies.

    Both Zelensky & Putin are the figureheads of capitalist states, but your gross oversimplifications bring you to utterly absurd, fact-free flights of fancy like this.

    The Republican vs Democrat dog and pony show is a long-running false feud scam.

    As any Marxist would tell you.

    Original capitalism was a rebellion against this economic religion of the aristocracy.

    Yes, it was a long bourgeois revolution against aristocracies. And liberalism is its ideology, replacing the divine rights of kings and to some extent religion itself. But it was very much not a proletarian revolution. The Founding Fathers intentionally formed a state that represents the capitalist class at the expense of the working class, and they succeeded spectacularly.

    .

    In the end it all boils down to religion and religious war. […] Socialism is a return to this racialist religion of deception and hate.

    🤦

    It sounds like you’ve got libertarian and/or anarcho-capitalist brain worms, where every person should just be their own individual petit bourgeois sovereign citizen shopkeeper.

      You are trying to make it about me, and assassinate my character with baseless insult and non-sequitur twaddle. In doing so you put your own character on display.

      You actually haven’t even understood a word I wrote. The truth is not in you. It is your nature to use words to lie and obfuscate and conceal your true intentions. That is the dark heart of socialism.

        🚨 Everyone, please see my true, dark-hearted intentions on display, as revealed by firefly ☝ My mask of lies, obfuscations, and concealments has been peeled away 🚨

        Unfortunately virtually no one is going to see this. Feel free to @ people to bring this revelation to their attention.

        This is starting to sound like persecutory delusion.

          “Unfortunately virtually no one is going to see this.”

          That’s what you think. But others are reading, and taking note, and amusing themselves.

          Pray tell, what does your clairvoyant knowledge of the readership have to do with the facts at hand or subject of discussion?

          And this is yet another bully tactic of trying to convince the target that he is ‘alone and isolated’ in his view. Your tactics are transparent. You just ‘intuit’ what you want to be true and then declare it to be so. Your socialist forefathers did the same, and they managed to murder millions of victims in the process of their incompetence and arrogance. You’re on the wrong side of history.

          “This is starting to sound like persecutory delusion.”

          This is more evidence of your tendency to ad hominem bile.

          Since you are such an eminent psychologist, should I shudder before your most highly supernatural powers of psychoanalysis? Pray tell, where did you get your license to practice remote psychiatry? I sure would like to know the rocket scientry behind how that works!

            I think the dearth of votes is a decent proxy for anyone to intuit low viewership, but besides that:
