minus-squarejve@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down1·13 hours agoOligarchy and capitalism are in no way incompatible. One is a form of governance, one is an economic system. That you would pose the notion of “we don’t have capitalism, we have oligarchy” shows that you don’t seem to know the definitions. You’re no different in rhetoric or philosophy from a MAGA supporter—just flipped to the opposite pole. MAGA has a lot more to do with hate for others and retribution for perceived slights than any coherent take on policy.
minus-squaremechoman444@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down2·9 hours agoOut of all the idealistic head in the clouds idiots under my original comment you by far take the cake you are alone on a pedestal of stupid. You claim that I don’t know the definitions of capitalism and oligarchy when you can’t even use the words correctly. If anything you have no clue what those words mean nor have you understood a single word that I said. Capitalism and oligarchy are of course compatible which is why I called our current system of economics a corporate oligarchy. Please don’t respond there is no way you can save yourself.

What about my comment made me seem idealistic? Or is this another word you don’t understand? You claim that I don’t know the definitions of capitalism and oligarchy when you can’t even use the words correctly. In what way did I use them incorrectly? If anything you have no clue what those words mean nor have you understood a single word that I said. Of course I haven’t understood what you said, you defined capitalism as Ownership of the means of production. Do you actually think this is a sensible response to that question? It doesn’t even say who owns it. Those exact words can be used to define communism, if you change who the “owners” are. Please don’t respond there is no way you can save yourself. Save myself from what? The stakes of this internet debate seem to be much higher for you than they are for me.
