Real capitalism has never been tried
Americans will get angry at the absence of propaganda, that’s how bad it is.
I love my job and hate capitalism. Where do I fit in?
Believe it or not, jail.
It’s natural to enjoy the work. It’s the hours, useless leaders and chronically, systemically inadequate compensation that we can only hope to resolve by progressing beyond capitalism.
I’ve been in the workforce for 25 years, and I’ve only ever hated one boss for a period of about a year, but the job was otherwise good, and he was eventually fired for being a sociopath. It was a rare occurrence.
If I hated my job and didn’t think they cared that my boss was an ass, I would have found a different job.
If I hated all my jobs and all my bosses, I’d stop blaming the jobs and bosses and try to figure out what my personal issue was.
It’s also possible that you are a lucky person, and you probably could use some time listening to what others have to say about their situation, especially younger people. But yeah, you may be right, too.

There’s an old saying: “If you run into an asshole in the morning, then you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, then you’re the asshole.” If you hate every boss you’ve ever had, you might be a person who doesn’t take direction and feedback well. That seems more likely than every single boss being unbearable.
You’d have to convince me that the seemingly unlikely solution is the true one.
I guess old sayings is all you got. I don’t have to do anything with you. Glad you read my previous comment, though. Thanks.
In Saudi Arabia we get a massive welfare state with a lot free from hospitals to free universities, and no income tax. Yet still many would say “the government should do more”, and “they aren’t being charitable since it is our oil”. I personally wrote a report in university on how the government’s railroad projects are underwhelming and more should be done. When I wrote my report only Dammam Riyadh lines 1 and 2 existed.
People in the US have very low expectations of their government given that they pay taxes on everything.
US federal taxes are a farce. They’re ostensibly progressive but in reality regressive, being a sieve of legal, semi-legal, and unenforced illegal loopholes for the top ~10%.
The rail network is owned by private companies, which give priority right-of-way to freight over passenger trains, so the few extant passenger lines are wildly unreliable (despite most of them being nationalized under Amtrak). The State can and should commandeer the entire network via eminent domain.
Don’t consume American propaganda
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !noyank@lemmy.ml
Good bot

Deep down, nobody want’s to close the door to the opportunities for self-enrichment presented by capitalism.
imagine being so brainwashed to not even be able to conceive of a system that provides better opportunities for self enrichment than the one where majority of the population serves a small capital owning class 🤡
Given the baseline adult education of the USA being about Grade 6 equivalent, 54% in a recent article, so more than half, I’d say the clowns are winning. Brainwashed, sure, it takes wisdom to understand the manipulatuon. Mosr people want the money, willing to demean themselves and enslave others for the opportunity. It’s a brutal world out in reality. Send in the clowns. Nice emoji kid.
In 1450 there were faux-world weary peasants intoning solemnly about the natural and immutable nature of monarchy. Know that you are part of a long and useless tradition, and spare us the glimpse into your sterilized imagination.
Welcome to modernity, where the dream for all is capitalism.
How wretched for you
Meanwhile in reality, there are more communists in the west now than there have ever been.
The only thing worse than capitalism is the hate boner lemmies have for it.
so many lost redditors on here
Is there though?
Or do I just see dumb posts like this a lot?
I’d love to see an example of anyone saying they love capitalism.
Nobody cares what you think is dumb, stop attention seeking.
So that’s a no for any examples at all of people saying they love capitalism.
I love how everyone is attacking me for pointing out no one loves capitalism lol
You having an argument with yourself there?
Are you having a hard time reading?
Nobody’s impressed by your goalpost moving, because everyone knows what you originally meant by “The only thing worse than capitalism is the hate boner lemmies have for it.”
I do feel dumber with each one of your comments if that’s what you mean.
I love capitalism in Saudi Arabia, free schools, free universities, free hospitals, government housing, … Arabs since ancient times were merchants on trade routes, and so dealt with capital, debt, futures, and so on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSfFq02pK4s The Quran and Hadith discusses laws about capital, debts, companies, contracts and so on. But as with anything Middle Eastern, it gets progressively corrupted and monstrous the further west you go. An ambulance should be free, so should schooling, that’s only obvious. The prosperity gospel is blasphemous and could only come from a soulless society that worships money.

You are literally on /c/socialism
Yes I know
You are a lemm.ee :)
I sure am on that server. And you are on lemmy.ml nice to meet you :)
Exactly. Perfect example of the nothing these posts are.
Nobody on c/socialism is interested in a debating the abolition of private ownership of the means of production. Those are table stakes.
