 liberals are capitalists.
 
 the compromise should be between socialists, and liberals. not capitalists and
 conservatives.

 One piece of conventional wisdom is that you cannot trust liberals to act
 under any amount of plight. They completely lack foresight.

 @user-1165 
 
 if people want to do their capitalist thing then sure, go for it.
 
 but the enforcement of it is that which must be resisted. There should be no
 non-consentual applications of power, except to protect the rights of another.
 
 it is a war of independence, not a war of conquest.

 every leftist should have a pilgrimage to conservative lands. In times of
 peace, this is valid. in times of war... less so. but, the first one to cause
 harm is dealt an increasing blow, back and forth until one wears thin. not
 ideal. or, one is led to peace, where they benefit from each other's helping
 arms.

 We should demand a government that works, not aid and abet dismantling it.

screenshot of a reddit post. the title is: Oregon affordable housing providers barely staying afloat, threatening construction goals reply by blue: So frustrating. We need organizations like this to keep housing folks. reply by yellow: Or we could just do it through the government and have it be accountable and cleanly audited. Orgs like this ultimately cost more money, cause brain drain from the government, and in general are a piss poor replacement for the state acting. reply by blue: I’d totally be fine with it if it wasn’t for my complete lack of faith in our current elected officials to ensure something’s success. reply by yellow: We should demand a government that works, not aid and abet dismantling it.

 that you cannot opt out means it is unethical.

 I don't think the "capitalist elite" really have an ideology. Ideas are
 weapons they use and discard when it suits them, like strapping 15 handguns to
 your person in order to avoid needing to reload.

 the biggest problem with capitalism is that you aren't allowed to invest in
 things that aren't designed to make money.
 
 The best part of capitalism is that they'll never figure out how to charge you
 for friendship or love.
