Capitalism has created extreme wealth disparity, allowed the wealthy to buy our politicians and pass whatever legislation they want, and is quite literally killing our planet.

What a stupid fucking question.

I get that humans are too stupid to move past capitalism, but can we at the very least pull our knuckles off the ground and accept that capitalism has to be heavily regulated to reasonably function?

A US politician that doesn't deepthroat coporation everytime he opens his mouth? Guard him well, these types tend to end up comitting suicide via a bullet to the back of the head.

Capitalism ultimately rots into authoritarianism through wealth accumulation.

Capitalism is always bad, because capitalism is where an ownership class who does no work leeches from a working class who owns nothing.

Don’t confuse free markets with capitalism, they’re different.

It's still called capitalism, but in reality it's drifted way off course. What we've got now looks more like a corporate oligarchy. The free market only applies to small players, big banks and mega-corps get bailouts, write policy through lobbyists, and face no real consequences for failure. It's capitalism in name, but the rules are rigged. Real capitalism doesn't have a reset button for the rich and a bootstraps lecture for everyone else.

This is real capitalism. Real capitalism does not work
