    “burn it all to the ground”…which, frankly, is a shit idea, because we are all in this boat and I’d rather see us all succeed than fail.

    Do you think changing economic systems is equivalent to setting it all on fire?

      No, but the majority of the “you’re not left enough” crowd disingenuously keeps bringing it up as the only solution, and don’t offer any positive or applicable alternatives.

        Thats because it is the only solution, and the “you’re not left enough crowd” understands it is the only solution.

        Maybe read Capital volumes 1-3 and then tell me you think “socialism or barbarism” isn’t an objectively(or as close to objective as one can be) correct take.

          My friends, I am not saying the system is the best one, I am saying we need to come together and figure out how to make positive changes whole living in it, not wreck the joint Because our children have enough shit to deal with for thier future.

            Reforming the system is a dead end, we have to replace if with socialism for the sake of our children.

                  Philosophically you are right.

                  Practically, unless you’re working to make changes, and I mean real changes, then all you’re doing is making memes and trolling.
