Oh, you must live in one of those countries which the spectre of capitalism doesn't threaten the very fabric of society. Which planet is that on again?
Not everywhere has it to a degree where healthcare is witheld from you when it's not profitable/ even a small medical procedure ends in financial ruin. Not everywhere has "we need to have guns to prevent opression"
Capitalism doesn't hold a candle to other institutions when it comes to ruining a nation.
Importing mistrust of institutions from other countries is doing that work.
Speak for yourself.
No duh, you seem to think that you speak some truth to power when you're not.
Thanks for contributing substance to the conversation.
