    pretty funny how nearly all pro-capitalist notion comes down to “I’m privileged enough to be happy with the status quo”

      Considering communism was voted out in fair elections here and noone wants it back, your argument is invalid.

        Is the communism that you voted out the Marxist-Leninist, “people’s revolution turned authoritarian state” kind? I’d get rid of that shit, too.

        There are lots of other stands of anti-capitalism (eg, democratic socialism, anarchism) that are probably worth exploring. Even if we stick with capitalism but soften it with socialist policies, that’s still way better than the minimally regulated capitalism we have in the US.

          Haven’t seen any proposal that would reconcile incentives of large number of egoistic actors. This sort of thing simply doesn’t exist.
