    You clearly haven’t engaged with anything, and lol @ “independent thinker” from someone defending the dominant economic and political system, which fyi is exactly what you’re doing

      haven’t engaged with anything

      lmao. Not sure what’s funnier here, that you apparently don’t exist according to your comment, or that it’s basically “Nuh-UH, YOU’RE STUPID!”

      lol @ “independent thinker”

      Speaking of which, where exactly did I defend anything? Quote the specific text.

      Here, I’ll help. I said:

      No one runs around elsewhere in Lemmy making it a point to defend capitalism,

      Including me.

      I explained how someone else might arrive at the place where the original meme was made. People on .ml instances are not some fully complete and perfect opposite pole of the Western world. Y’all have some opinions, and that’s not even the problem. You’re super annoying with how you try and force them on people.

      Like how you’re literally lying and angry about the fact that not everyone likes how you communicate. Your ideas aren’t the problem, how you talk about them is the problem.

      Fun fact: Explaining the biology of a seagull to someone doesn’t make me a seagull. If I ask you to explain how a microwave works, shall you become a microwave?

      The dominant economic and political system is mixed and always has been.

          As we know, socialism is when the government does stuff, and the government does some stuff, that means its a mix of capitalism and socialism.

          Everyone paying for the police that protect the institution of capital is an example of socialism.

          -libs, probably
