You know what fucks me up? If you talk to your average capitalist, get to know them, gain their trust, they will admit to you that they know capitalism is shit. They know the market doesn't optimize for efficiency or social good. They just see it as an inevitability, and want to be on the winning side. I'm not saying all of them are like this, but I've met too many to think it's a coincidence.
@YOLO_STALIN even if they know it's shit, I find those who are benefiting from capitalism are more inclined to want it to stay in place
@YOLO_STALIN read adam smith. The invisible hand is an interesting concept
@YOLO_STALIN But they're also still so reliant on the "human nature" argument, even when they demonstrate their own discomfort with it.
@YOLO_STALIN yuuuppppppp - a lot of the ones I know are aware of how broken the system is but since they're on the winning side they figure they might as well get as much as they can while they can.
