[filler]

the capitalism defenders on here sure are gullible and insecure about their precious capitalism. this shit ain't even been around that long and mofuckaz act like it can't be replaced by something different. it just has to go on forever and never be critiqued because "we can't let the communists win!" 

reminds me of how people vote in the U.S. people are not so much voting for who they want, just against what they fear. "I gotta vote for the bag of turd, because I don't want the other side to win!" 

the bore autists never learn

Everyone in here is in agreeance that capitalism is the best worst system. No one is unaware of the flaws.

[filler]

then why you dorks get worked up when anyone criticizes the system they live under? lol

I'm not a cummunist and I don't see it as the solution. the problem runs deeper than the systems we use tbh

System is working pretty good for me...but I am educated, sane and have a decent work ethic.

Not sure that's the response you'd want from a Brooklyn councilwoman

"...the rapists were all (Gypsy) "children" too, so it's kids raping kids or children raping children. Not quite so outrageous, is it?"

[benji]

you guys are right. capitalism is completely faultless. as evidenced by all the capitalist controlled governments that are completely free from corruption and not all at susceptible to blowing each other up for profit. checkmate capitalism critics

Except you always post people who argue that because of so-called flaws (most don't even do this, for example, Riley never explains how capitalism is built on theft in the slightest and most of your other stuff has little to nothing to do with capitalism versus states pursuing their perceived interests, see the very first quote here) the answer is to completely eliminate democracy and violently replace it with a system built on nothing but theft, corruption and poverty.

Saying "capitalism isn't perfect and I have no idea what to replace it with so you're an idiot if you don't agree" is not a critique, it's abject stupidity. "This doesn't produce the results I personally desire so everyone should be violently forced to do something else no matter what they want" is not an intelligent critique or argument.

Unless you can explain why there's a better system than people being allowed to own their own labor and freely trade it, you don't have a critique in the first place. And if your argument, as most everyone you post argues, is that a system in which everyone's labor is owned by a single small arbitrarily self-chosen elite class and it's treason to not obey this tiny classes orders would be superior then others are entirely justified in rejecting your argument on its face.

It's irrelevant that it's not been around that long, neither has political democracy, yet you and the others rarely are so bold as to admit you want to eliminate that too. Instead you simply fall back on "critique" to argue that "see, this isn't perfect (by some irrelevant nonsense I've said) so therefore you should agree with me that we need to eliminate democracy completely." Yeah, no, let's stick with the best thing yet devised until someone actually articulates something better rather than return to past systems with even greater flaws. The anti-capitalist never bothers to explain why a return to less democracy, greater poverty and no ownership of labor is superior, they simply assert it will be this time because they say so and that all the other times this was tried don't count because that was somebody else doing it.

With the level of analysis and rhetoric, Filler is either a recent high school graduate or Cenk Wigger.

"Muslim women are free to wear hijabs or not, and pretending otherwise is islamophobia and misoginy".

Wears hijab outside despite not even being muslim just because you're standing beside a scary muslim cleric on a muslim holiday.

[benji]

It's called showing respect to that culture by wearing their culture as a costume.

I know the whole argument is that it's done out of respect for culture or whatever but I think what really annoys me about it that there's Muslim women who don't wear a hijab. Look no further than Mamdani's own wife. So why are people like AOC doing something that only the fundamentalists really care about?

[Uncle]

she should dress like a 1950s tradwife when visiting with christians of any denomination

It's almost like she's performing for someone or some group...

Why are those men letting that woman speak? They fail as Muslims.

You know who really needs to lay off most of their administrative staff? Universities.

Nobody needs as many equity coordinators as there are professors.

Nintendo centrally planning the economy would be way better.

This is part of a larger freakout by the way with people being really mad that some guy dared to say that he developed an ice cream recipe

[HaughtyFrank]

Also a fascinating facet of modern discourse. You can crawl on stage and flash your panties and then go on a talk show be all "Why are people sexualizing me??"

Huh. All those posts complaining about cultural appropriation on the American social media platform Twitter are in English.
