    You’re incorrect. The meme references capitalism, not capitalists. I miswrote my initial statement by using capitalist instead of capitalism. Americans support capitalism by working and paying taxes, even if they’re not capitalists. What the US makes is produced through capitalism unless you’re native or communal.

      Nope, I am correct here.

      The meme references capitalism, not capitalists.

      The meme is made by a Communist, we are specifically talking about how Capitalists are unnecessary because even in Capitalism, the workers do all of the labor.

      Americans support capitalism by working and paying taxes, even if they’re not capitalists. What the US makes is produced through capitalism unless you’re native or communal.

      No, you’re not talking about the same thing here. Workers did all of the labor in creating your phone, it wasn’t the Capitalists. We aren’t saying Communism produced the phone, but workers.

      Again, how familiar are you with Marxism?
