Why are folks so anti-capitalist?locked

o_o@programming.dev to Asklemmy@lemmy.ml – 452 points –

Hi all,

I'm seeing a lot of hate for capitalism here, and I'm wondering why that is and what the rationale behind it is. I'm pretty pro-capitalism myself, so I want to see the logic on the other side of the fence.

If this isn't the right forum for a political/economic discussion-- I'm happy to take this somewhere else.

Cheers!

Why is capitalism so anti-folks?

Folks aren't themselves capital (anymore (mostly)) and just end up costing capital to keep them alive.

A true capitalist recognises this and despises folk for it.
