Of course I’m not saying greed and shadyness don’t exist elsewhere, but that’s ostensibly the purpose of governance is to try to create a system where that isn’t happening, as much as you can try.
And if you really want to ignore how out of control the greed has gotten because of that, you do you, man. We’re literally at a point where every major corporation has already fully captured the market, so to make any new lines of profit they’re just finding ways to squeeze pennies out of consumers instead offering anything compelling. It’s just nickel and diming us to death.
So yeah, it worked out fucking shitty and my framing is exactly because of the lived reality of fucking millions. Please stop acting like our lived reality is just a “framing.”
No, it’s our suffering under the thumb of capital. We suffer under it every day, motherfucker.
Yes, capitalism is shitty. I will not say it’s a good system, just that it seems to be the least bad a large scale society has managed to implement. Large attempts to explicitly be anti-capitalist didn’t work out better than current day late stage capitalism by any metric I’m aware of.
But all of that is irrelevant to the main point that saying there cannot be scammers because capitalism inherently makes all participants scammers is just incorrect.
Jesus, I hate these arguments so much.
The planet is dying, majority of people are hungry, and only the lucky few are living their own utopia, while the rest gets fucked.
And no, the ‘current system’ didn’t help people out of poverty, instead it robbed every developing nations of their future. And everyone else, too.
I get that you said ‘we got nothing better to happen’, but why? US won the second war and pushed everyone to suck its dick. So like yeah, capitalism for everyone?
