So... greed
Greed is an individual characteristic - it has nothing to do with capitalism, which is a global system of ravenous and genocidal exploitation which would function in the exact way it does even if it's main beneficiaries weren't "greedy" at all.
Greed is how liberals protect capitalism by pretending it's individual behavior that is the cause of our problems and not the global system of ravenous and genocidal exploitation that it actually is.
Ah yes of course... the libruls
Everybody wants to talk hysterically about the far-right - but people forget that there's a bog-standard, garden-variety right, too.
You know... the people that pretend they want change as long as the change doesn't actually change anything?
I’m a liberal. I don’t particularly want change. I want the current set of rights and freedoms to stay. I just don’t want them to be taken away.
I know. I also know you will happily surrender those meagre "rights and freedoms" to prevent change.
That's why us leftists say, "scratch a fascist and a liberal bleeds."
