lolbertarians are some of the dumbest people on earth.

okay, let’s say it is “crony capitalism run by the state” (he doesn’t mean state capitalism, he doesn’t know what that means)

what else can capitalism become, especially without extremely strict regulation and wealth/income caps- all things these people are against? and to the extent that the state has its hand in the economy, is it not ONLY to benefit corporations? they’re not regulating these companies or anything to any meaningful degree. so if the government is bad because they only serve big business, even in their own completely nonsensical analysis, doesnt that still make capitalism the problem?

I don't think Marx nor Lenin said it would. However the options are not capitalism or socialism, the options are socialism or extinction. Or call it barbarism.

Just like a cancercell capitalism need to expand to survive even if it kills the host in the process.

Sure you can control the water in the post apocalyptic desert . That way it would adapt.
