It's a simple world view

And most of the time you'd be right.

I wouldn't say all problems are because of capitalism. I do believe that most of the problems I face are exacerbated by capitalism.

Blaming everything on capitalism is oversimplistic and reductive, to be honest.

Climate collapse is a result of industrialization and not capitalism, to start. Unless you want to explain how Stalin and Mao were still burning coal.

Wherever there is a need there is potential for exploitation by greed. Of course capitalists without a leash are going to wreak havoc on everything.

Capitalism acts like a car hurtling down a highway with no brakes, powered by the roaring engine of industry.

Its insatiable thirst for growth and profits accelerates industrial activity to reckless speeds, steamrolling environmental concerns in its pursuit of relentless expansion.

Industry isn't the villain; it's merely the engine being pushed to its limits by capitalism's uncontrolled, destructive momentum.

Funnily enough, capitalist do the same thing. See a problem? Apply capitalism

And it's the root cause vast majority of the time.

Most times is Ronald Reagan, but yeah, capitalism in it's most exalted forms of exploitation is the reason.

I'd encourage you to expand your worldview - a lot of problems we attribute to capitalism are mostly because of hierarchy.

It's funny cause it's true.

Well, you're usually in the general vicinity of the root cause of any problem by that assumption.

The greatest crimes are caused by excess and not by necessity.

Republicans when trying to solve any problem anywhere:

99% of Lemmy, but unironically.

And here I was thinking it was religion

I hate how dated this is now

Me when I see any problem anywhere:
