    Just everyone. Everyone who wants to be productive and properly criticise the system.

    You guys have no interest in criticizing the system in any meaningful sort of way, so you can go ahead and save that nonsense for someone else.

    Love how you tag clown at the end cause you know I'm right

    Slavery has existed in ancient Greece and Rome, in Feudal Europe, it definitely existed in the Arabian peninsula before Islam, but ofc ktt wouldn't be ktt without the daily "DaE CApitaLism BaD?"
    post. I mean y'all make these posts but I have never seen anyone talk about what this non-capitalist society that you want even looks like. Tear down the system and then what?

    You clearly didn't study slavery from the periods you talk about nor slavery in the capitalists world
    Just humbly say it's out of your reach, citing history bullet points without their proper context isn't a good argument

    the 8 hour work day, the minimum wage etc., no child labor are not things that were inherent to capitalism. they were victories that were fought and won by the people.

    if you or anyone else is interested in labor politics, i highly recommend the book “there is power in a union” about the history of labor movements in america. it talks about those things you mentioned, which most people interested in this subject are aware of, but it’s fascinating to dive deep and also see how the attitudes towards labor unions in the US have changed so much over time

    no the way you act like you're the end all be all is unhealthy. I'm fine with you complaining about the current system, but don't complain and cuss us out for not agreeing with you when you fail to give us a reason to agree. And a reason that is a fully fleshed idea that actually makes sense. All we want is clarity but it feels like you're in this "the whole world is against me" headspace

    Right. Barely anyone here actually goes through and says why want they want would work, or how to get there. We have to think before just throwing ideas out there then getting mad cuz others don't agree.

    I don't see essays on the benefits of capitalism so like why would I return no effort with maximum effort lmaooo

    I actually have studied slavery in America Is this thread about slavery in America though?

    You make a call out for people to renounce the current system but you can't even be bothered to begin to describe the alternative. Ya you wack af. And here was me thinking you actually cared

    You may have studied slavery in America but any decent history class will teach you how to properly compare historic situations and first and foremost how to ask/respond to pertinent questions....
    You clearly don't see a problem in reasoning with how you reduced slavery from different historic periods to their lowest common denominator and yet want us to believe you somehow are well versed in history...

    No I have only studied American slacery. Is it within your reach though? Enlighten me @DonutHole . How is slavery today fundamentally different from slavery in any or all of those periods? How are those difference inherently due to capitalism?

    I haven't used a single cuss word, stop making things up lmfao. Y'all just love to play dumb, it's actually astounding.

    Ok here's a fleshed out idea.

    Abolish landlording, rent and mortages no longer exist. targeted social housing in areas where there lots of homeless people. Owning multiple properties is no longer allowed, you own one home, the one you choose to live in. continue to build social housing in other areas with smaller amounts of homeless people. to the extent it needs to be, housing is now fully subsidized by the state.
