Funny how you say this, and then a few days later, you jump in my DMs to tell me my memes make me look mentally ill. I guess because you don't like that I'm shit talking authoritarian losers. I'm not sure since you won't even say what makes you think that. That's a pretty fucking judgmental take. So...

Yeah, I did, after your smug attitude made it clear you thought I was an idiot. I may have said it in plain words first, but don't try to act like I was the only one being insulting. And again, all you've explained is what fiat allows them to do, not how that means this is anything other than capita...

That's a rather lofty way to cop out instead of admitting you can't explain it

You dense bastard, I already said I'm not advocating for communism. I'm pointing out the inconsistency in what you're saying. You've explained what fiat allows the owner class to do, but you haven't explained how that means it's not capitalism.

Lmao you're a joke

Lmao I'm not advocating for communism, I'm asking you to explain how we don't live under capitalism, and you can't seem to do it. You've set a seemingly arbitrary distinction and won't explain why it'...

If really understand bitcoin, you wouldn't even ask. Capitalism is just part of our socity but all coperates can burn their money and if they do so. They can just get a new Credit. Because the FED can print money out of thin air. The banks can give you a loan, out of nothing. Capitalism benefits those who work hard, the current system benefits those close to the moneyprinterl
Captialsim is the opposite of Communism.
Just because you heard of bitcoin, doesn't mean you understand it - the economics behind it is a different stuff.

Dude, you can't even explain yourself, don't try to tell me what I do and don't understand. Maybe consider the possibility you're the one who doesn't understand if you can't articulate your reasoning. Nothing about the quality of the money changes the fundamental structure of the economy. It changes...

Lmao I'm not advocating for communism, I'm asking you to explain how we don't live under capitalism, and you can't seem to do it. You've set a seemingly arbitrary distinction and won't explain why it's a reasonable one to make. I understand bitcoin well enough, I just don't understand what *you're* ...

We had hard, gold backed money in the Gilded Age of America, and it sure as shit didn't stop capitalism from abusing people. We hard, gold backed money when people fought for union rights and the government BOMBED its own citizens. We had hard, gold backed money when we sent children to work because...

I don't think that makes the system not capitalism, though. I think it just makes it a special subset of capitalism. None of this changes the fact that true value belongs to those with the means to buy and own the means of production. It's just capitalism in which the capital class has the means to ...

In what way is it not capitalism? You've got people owning the means of production by virtue of having the wealth to buy them. That's textbook capitalism.
