Focus your argument. It isn't capitalism, policing is almost an issue in all systems. This anti capitalist sentiment is really trying to creep into every single vein of discourse.
- wahnfrieden 4y agoIt’s capital and state. Hence the anarchist viewpoint being more relevant here than being anti one and pro the other or saying it's capitalism and getting "but it's the state too"
- komali2 4y agoFocusing to the point of tunnel vision is what we're trying to avoid. Stay too focused and you don't have room to ask why our jails are essentially revolving door state housing for the homeless. The usa is absolutely in a predictable phase of late stage capitalism. You don't have to be a communist to consider this, rigid critique of system is how you improve systems.
- nimbius 4y agoPay closer attention. this is american capitalism, the implementation undertaken by the US itself as is relevant to the stories locale. it is not the definition itself.
- boringg 4y agoMy argument is that drugs and crime aren't a feature of American capitalism. They are a feature of all systems - capitalist, communist, market-communism or socialism. My argument is bringing in the economic system in this case adds little to your comment but continues to try and blame all problems on capitalism or in this case "American-capitalism" the scape goat du jour.
