Honestly though…isn’t that the conversation you want to have? I know its an absolutely exhausting one to deal with but that really does cut to the heart of everything and especially now in our current era in a way I think people can kinda see almost day to day.
“Capitalism is an economic system, but communism is also a political system.”
“If capitalism has nothing to do with our political system then why is everyone so concerned with campaign finance in elections? Why are people so concerned with corporate bailouts?”
Even better, if capitalism is not political then how come capitalist governments keep interfering with and invading/couping communist countries?
It’s impossible for me to talk about the US and South America without sounding like a conspiracy theorist tbh.
The US overthrowing a government for cheap bananas just sounds too ridiculous
