It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Capitalism as a concept was invented to describe an existing phenomena ya dunce. The concept of capitalism is less than 200 years old.
The amount of people who believe that capitalism is when people trade stuff is incredible. I kind of wish that they would just say that capitalism as a concept is socialist propaganda rather than bastardising the concept, because that is effectively what they're doing with this little charade.
So do they believe that marxists think everyone was communist until 400 years ago
they do, there were several replies to that nature. asking how old communism is as an own, or even saying uhhh sweaty ancient Rome doesn't sound like communism to me!!! because apparently there have only been 2 ways people have organized themselves
KKKool spelling choice and double-0-that-looks-like-another8 number choice, KKKalvinist!
Claiming trade is capitalism is propaganda that makes it an unassailable position.
How can you be against something as good and obviously beneficial as trading?
Socialism is when the government does stuff
Capitalism is when people trade stuff
