It may have worked before, but times change. Globalization is a thing now, and socialist democracies are winning the game.
Capitalism can not exist without government, and in a globalized economy, government can not exist without capitalism.
If you are going to resort to insults and personal attacks, please do better than "You are stupid."
"socialist democracies "
socialist democracies are where the workers control the means of production through democracy lmao
"and in a globalized economy, government can not exist without capitalism."
no, they can not exist without trade
In a globalized economy, capitalism and trade are one and the same. The only way around that would be to not participate in any trade with capitalists. Good luck with that.
capitalism includes private ownership of the means of production, in other words "capital".
The name is literally based off of it. You have no understanding of the economic system you try and defend.
You shouldn't assume to know what a crypto-currency enthusiast knows about economics.
All of us use what we have to make life better for ourselves, and to work and trade with others. That's what capitalism is to me.
You are using a computer and your steem power to make money for yourself. You are capitalizing on the tech, the platform, and your crypto-currency holdings. That means you are a capitalist. What do you think of that?

"You are capitalizing on the tech, the platform, and your crypto-currency holdings. That means you are a capitalist. What do you think of that?"
That is the only way I can make change in the world due to the nature of this system. Your power is equal to how much you can steal from others, and many have far too much power to defeat as a simple worker.
and it makes me a petit-bourgeois, like the entirety of this country
"You shouldn't assume to know what a crypto-currency enthusiast knows about economics.'
but you can't define capitalism lmao
"All of us use what we have to make life better for ourselves, and to work and trade with others. That's what capitalism is to me."
we promote making our lives better for ourselves by making it worse for others. That's how it operates.
"The only way around that would be to not participate in any trade with capitalists. "
actually the capitalists tend to embargo every socialist country, to hurt its economy.
If socialism doesn't work why did the US try to assassinate Fidel Castro 700 times?
