I’ve posted it a bunch lately but it really does feel like people hate all the pieces of capitalism without realizing they’re all connected.
This is in large part due to Joe McCarthy, Ronald Reagan, and co. making the words “communist” and “socialist” socially unacceptable by kicking off the Red Scare in the 1950s. Can’t critique capitalism in those days without being called a Commie and losing your job.
Right. We could argue details but that’s more or less acceptable to me.
But getting to somewhere like that from here is a real uphill battle.
