Ask these folks if they have a better idea. They never do and always fall back to capitalism, even though we’re all witnessing capitalists fucking up the entire planet. They won’t even entertain the pieces of a whole as good ideas. It’s either all or nothing. They’ve already skewed the argument in their favor because of capitalist propaganda influence.
