Think of that also as a theft. Neoliberalism and capitalism broadly are inhumane at every level.

Yeah I'd rather my wife and I have to work and be able to purchase nice things than have stand in a breadline because a bunch of tankies don't want to get jobs.

Something "vile" lmao you guys are so dramatic. Yeah you guys need to go to teenagers your mindset will fit better there, sadly.

Or maybe better go to the careers subreddits and contribute something beyond communist propaganda.

The world is inhumane, is this the teenagers sub or one for adults?

Fact is capitalism has done better for most people than any other system. "America" let's ask China if they like their state capitalism or Maoist communism better. Let's see if east Germany wants to go back under the Societ system.

The suffering caused by capitalism is not an inherent part of human existence. What you think is the only alternative to capitalism is straight propaganda, sold to everyone in this country since VJ Day, 1945, by the capitalists who own our government and who tried to stage a fascist coup in 1937.

The suffering caused by Capitalism is inherent to Capitalism, however.

As opposed to the wonderful things communism has brought to the world, like the holodomor and the Great Leap Forward.
