Does capitalism cause people to hate?

[SuperDemocrat]

I know their are hardcore socialist on this board. They are too gutless to show up and explain their views but I want to know do they think people who live in capitalist societies are full of hate. It is just a question that I want other people to answer with a thought out answer.

No but like every other "ism", some people will do evil, hateful things in it's name.

I'm trying to figure out why the right is accused of being 'haters'?

It's the emphasis they put on justice. Like a preacher who always talks about hell and sin vs one who talks about love, charity, forgiveness, etc.

Can you show us the capitalist terrorist who shouted: "For capitalism", after his evil doings? Or did something evil because he just too strongly believed in capitalism?

If you are attempting to make an equivalency, you failed. Islam for example is a lot worse than bunch of isms.

Damn, that's simple, because we don't buy into the regressive agenda.

Why woudn't capitalism help us reach the progressive agenda? I still don't understand what the term 'progress' or 'change' means. I'm sure someone out there knows but I have yet in my lifetime heard any good definition of what those mean to the people who believe in these things. They just say 'progress' and 'change' without any explanation what we are chaging or progressing towards? It is like asking where the airplane is going and the only answer you ever get is it is flying. No one would would ever except that as a rational answer.

Unions have always been seen as an attack on capitalism and there has been plenty of evil done to combat it.

 

[Care4all]

Capitalism relies on all of us BREAKING the 10th Commandment... the more we break the 10th, the better capitalism does.... that's hard to swallow, however true it may be....

Capitalism relies on envy... wanting what your neighbor has....that new iphone, that new car, that bigger house, those nicer clothes, the more we covet our neighbors goods and act on it, the better capitalism does....

in the mean time, our inner souls begin to rot, rot, rot.... with envy and hatred and selfishness and desire.... where material things become the focus instead of love and kindness and selflessness and true happiness....

I'm as guilty as the next guy and gal...

So, to answer your title question, yes, I believe capitalism messes with our inners, our heads, and can cause all of us to hate, if not careful...

Those who see unions as attack on capitalism, don't know what capitalism is.


That said, can you name this great evil that has been done? Trade negations? Even these are not done in the name of capitalism...

US Workers Were Once Massacred Fighting for the Protections Being Rolled Back Today

On April 20, 1914, the Colorado National Guard and a private militia employed by the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company (CF&I) opened fire on a tent camp of striking coal miners at Ludlow, Colo. At least 19 people died in the camp that day, mostly women and children.

I call fake, that site is not even pretending to hide its extreme left wing Marxist agenda... but anyway, they didn't open fire in the name of capitalism. They were just greedy assholes, being violent murderous assholes. Kind of like many left wingers of today.

You want to know their ultimate goal, just look at what they're doing. They are changing the vernacular, taking once considered undesirable human traits like envy and coveting your neighbors things, to terms like social and economic justice, same traits, new name, because no one can argue with justice, right. They want to reward benefactors like teachers unions, you waste trillions over time and create the DOE, all the while proclaiming "it's for the children", want to run up the debt on ineffective social programs, once again spend trillions and proclaim "it's for the children". Of course the very fact that they are putting those children and future generations of children in unsustainable debt is all beside the point. But hey, regressives keep people snowed and maintain their power over them, so it's all good. Which leads to their goal of maintaining power over people and resources and enriching themselves, just like the Clintons.

Wouldn't that be the fault of the people and not capitalism. Capitalism is nothing but an exchange of goods and services, beneficial to all parties concerned.

Socialism and its offshoots have killed more people than any socioeconomic system in history and this murder and mayhem has all occurred in the last 100 years.

A 'no true Scotsman' argument.
You made what could be called an appeal to purity as a way to dismiss relevant criticisms or flaws of your argument.
In this form of faulty reasoning one's belief is rendered unfalsifiable because no matter how compelling the evidence is, one simply shifts the goalposts so that it wouldn't apply to a supposedly 'true' example. This kind of post-rationalization is a way of avoiding valid criticisms of one's argument.

Example: Angus declares that Scotsmen do not put sugar on their porridge, to which Lachlan points out that he is a Scotsman and puts sugar on his porridge. Furious, like a true Scot, Angus yells that no true Scotsman sugars his porridge.

Liberalism, especially political correctness, causes hate.
