BLM Leader: Capitalism is Evil

[cawacko]

Capitalism has produced more wealth and brought more people out of poverty than any other economic system yet it's evil? How does that work?




Q&A A founder of Black Lives Matter answers a question on many minds: Where did it go?


""We wouldn't as a movement take a seat at the table with Trump, because we wouldn't have done that with Hitler. Trump is literally the epitome of evil, all the evils of this country — be it racism, capitalism, sexism, homophobia.""

Sounds like somebody in the BLM is unemployed.

Capitalism has also made a tiny few insanely wealthy while exploiting the lives and labor of the people they so often used like tools to build that wealth.

So yes, capitalism as practiced by most capitalists over the years, does have a large component of evil.

Not to mention greed.

How can anyone be surprised that these Marxist lunatics hate capitalism, free speech and fair elections???

I'm happy to see them all come out of the closet with their suppressed hatred and Fascistic tendencies.

Why is this a bad thing? Did they steal the wealth? Or, like Gates, create a LOT of wealth, opportunity and millionaires as they themselves became wealthy on their ideas/inventions?

So yes, capitalism as practiced by most capitalists over the years, does have a large component of evil.

How is it evil to make a lot of money?

Not to mention greed.

And yet, the freed we Americans should find most repugnant is that of politicians who feed from the public trough and those who choose to do nothing by electing these dishonest corrupt politicians who reach into the pockets of hard working Americans to give them free handouts.

You're too ignorant to comprehend the obvious so I digress.

You leftist lunatics love your loony assumptions. I probably pay more in taxes than you make in a year you pathetic race hustling loser.

Try to put yourself in someone else's shoes. That's the way I look at it.

Capitalism, and it's corollary colonialism, were the very basis, at the very heart of the slave trade, the middle passage, the bondage of millions of people.

I can't say myself that everything about capitalism is evil, but I can understand the dude's sentiment.

Whatever you have to say about Karl Marx he had some pretty good insight on this. He did not necessarily think capitalism was evil, in fact he recognized the necessity and the role of capitalism in the overall arc, the trajectory, of human advancement. He just thought it was transitional, because the profit motive has a lot of downside embedded within it, and he thought something better and more egalitarian would follow on the heels of capitalism.

Capitalism is a very flawed system, but it's still the best thing we've come across as a species. People need incentive, and we're programmed for competition via evolution and our natural history.

We should keep working on it, though. The ever-growing disparity between the haves & have nots is a problem.

So we should eliminate free markets and profit motive and that will take away the evil and greed?

Amazing you take for granted the quality of life we have in this country and hate what brought it to us

Lib pols don't think it's evil to be rich. Just ask the Clintons, Obamas, etc.
Everyday welfare libs don't think it's evil to be rich. They play lotto all the time in order to become one of the filthy rich. Hypocrites.

I do put myself in someone else's shoes. No other economic system has brought more people out of (extreme) poverty than capitalism. What is the problem there?

That disparity grew exponentially during Obamunism....which you seem to miss.

P.S. That growing disparity is not the result of Capitalism, but rather Obamunism and the Marxist ideals driving the DNC.

 

[blackascoal]

No problem with a discussion on whether or not capitalism is indeed evil. Countless people have been making the same claim far longer than you've been alive.

My question is what is the significance of attaching BLM to the argument? There are about a bazillion whites who have said the exact same thing, including Michael Moore who made a whole movie about it.

Would your argument be the exact same argument without attaching BLM to it?

That Q & A had far more to it then her rarely mentioned thought on capitalism.

You have to remember who we are dealing with; a corrupt lying ideology that has to promote divisive race hustling and victimology in order to survive.

We should try total socialism so we can be as good as Venezuela someday.

It's been growing steadily for decades.

Blaming Obama for every single thing is a "zero credibility" move.

Karl didn't have many financial woes. He married a woman (Jenny von Westphalen) from the Prussian noble class (causing a great deal of scandal), which could have been one source of capital. His uncle (Benjamin Philips) was a banker and industrialist and a source of loans for Karl and his wife while in exile in London. I guess he didn't mind leaning on banking in order to be able to afford to rail against it.
