- newaccountman2 4mo agoCapitalism and free markets are distinct things often conflated. One can market socialism. One can have crony capitalism.
- gruez 4mo agoFor many, "capitalism" has lost all original meaning and is instead a synonym for "republicans" or "MAGA".
- DaSHacka 4mo agoSounds like many people are idiots blinded by ideological lenses.
- Legend2440 4mo agoCapitalism is any time rich people do bad things.
- paulddraper 4mo agoAnd the more bad they are, the more capitalist it is.
- nekusar 4mo agoTrump just says plainly what the republicans have always been for. Now its just without euphamism. Some of us remember "Trickle down economics", from Reagan. More like pissed-on. And Reagan treated HIV like a 'gay plague that would solve itself'. And 'welfare queen' was a euphamism for 'inner city black people'. Or the fact that Regan thought Murphy Brown was a real reporter. Point being is its the same party, same postures, same intent. Now, its without euphamism. 'Eating cats and dogs' versus 'those people'.
