Why are folks so anti-capitalist? - eviltoast

Hi all,

I’m seeing a lot of hate for capitalism here, and I’m wondering why that is and what the rationale behind it is. I’m pretty pro-capitalism myself, so I want to see the logic on the other side of the fence.

If this isn’t the right forum for a political/economic discussion-- I’m happy to take this somewhere else.

Cheers!

    Are there other less anti-capitalist instances you can recommend? I am so tired of the constant <insert random normal problem here>, “oh, it’s because capitalism!” circlejerk.

      Yeah, I’d like to be pointed to one too. I don’t mind talking to anti-capitalists, but the circkle-jerking is too much.

      A lot of the other ones are less anti-capitalist. The problem here is that no other instance seems to want to compete for AskLemmy since the community got built early here.
