Pro-Capitalist’s defense of capitalism is just explaining how it works, and then when you say “yes I know, I just think it shouldn’t be like that” they explain it to you again but angrier this time

They say “It’s fair because the people who own capital earn all the rewards” and then you say “I dont think owning capital entitles you to all the profits” and then their brain short circuits

“He invested capital”

“Yes and then a thousand other people did work while he sat around and profited.”

“But… he invested capital….”

they literally CAN NOT FATHOM that I know how capitalism works and just oppose it on moral grounds

  4. hfvyu said: @mnemonicat you really think that if capitalists stop investing anything people would just stop growing food, bottling water, making clothes, carrying all that to where people need it? That people would just go “well, I would like to have something to eat but no one want to invest in growing food so guess I’ll starve”? Of course not! Work is a thing because people have needs and wants, which necessitate work. Capitalists just coopt that prosses to make money.
