We Don’t Want a Post-Pandemic “Return to Normal,” We Want the End of Capitalism

In 2022, we limped out of the pandemic frying pan into the fire of resumed capitalist crises. Popular yearning to “get back to normal” is a desire for the good life — and making such a desire a reality will require fighting for socialism.

We've done such a shitty job of managing and applying capitalism that shitty ideas like this are beginning to look better to some.

Nothing promotes and facilitates growth and progress more effectively than capitalism. But capitalism isn't about the Wild West, it's not about survival of the fittest, because it so profoundly affects everyone. A lack of controls leaves too many out. And they VOTE.

This crap is our own fault.

We appear to be stuck in an unresolved interregnum.

I don't follow your logic. Please explain.

If someon gets inferior people into employment with strong unions and or government ways and others do not get that chance who work in lower paying employment environs who are smarter that is reality.

"End of Capitalism" is dumbass Moon Bat doublespeak for "making the US a Socialist Shithole".

I'm still unclear on your point but here is my interpretation of it. Sorry if I misspeak.

Some jobs require a high degree of intelligence, others do not. I consider myself of above average intelligence (don't we all?) but higher math always eluded me so you wouldn't want me to calculate rocket launches. On the other hand I think I'm smart enough to collect trash but I wouldn't do a better job than someone not as intelligent but stronger since smart is not really a requirement.

We see that happening here. But people love it.

What people love it?

This nation is more divided than anytime since the first civil war your filthy party started. The more socialism you swine foist on the nation the greater the wealth divide becomes as you destroy the middle class. The goal of you fascists is to concentrate all wealth in the hands of the elite, leaving the majority destitute, dependent, and obedient.

So what you advocate is state control of the means of production, but private ownership by party elites?

That's so brilliant it's a wonder no one else ever thought of it...

By which you mean a communist shithole, brainwashed functional moron. Every other modern country has socialism, that is fair capitalism always democratic with a good safety net.... You keep voting for unfair capitalism because you can't change the damn channel. Not to mention the orange business failure con man screw up.....

Actually, brainwashed functional moron, the destruction of the middle class has been the result of 40 years of giveaway to the rich by the GOP. Only brainwashed functional morons would vote for them...

I always say they are brainwashed functional moron this or idiots or racists, not personal but political insults about their misinformation. The only thing I do say is that they are ignoramuses. Because you have to be to believe that crap. And there's nothing wrong with ignorance unless you are totally misinformed with hateful garbage. I don't know of a single conspiracy theory that has turned out to be right. No election steal no pandemic hoaxes no global warming hoax no pedophilia, all that has been totally discredited everywhere but your garbage propaganda.

No, you functionally illiterate fool, you Nazi scum wage war against the middle class specifically to concentrate all wealth at the top.

You want the masses to be destitute and desperate, so we will be obedient.

You idiots have no clue at all unbelievable, that's why you throw around communist fascist Nazi with absolutely no understanding of what they mean. Nazis and fascists are right wing dictator lovers and love unfair capitalism (you are martial law away from doing that yourselves like trump wanted), communists want a dictatorship that owns all business and industry and you can't find anyone like that outside of China Cuba and North Korea with a gun to their head. We simply want fair capitalism. Because of you brainwashed functional morons, we, the richest country in the world, are the only developed country that doesn't have health care daycare paid parental leave cheap college and training great infrastructure and vacations, all because you are brainwashed by savage capitalist propaganda which is the English speaking talent... Not to mention all this new absolutely idiotic hateful conspiracy nut job BS GOP baloney....

We drive vehicles with the best quality coming from Asian nations. The greed of the American auto unions which was very socialistic helped to take away their number one status. Where is the balance in things? Some over hyped, others not hyped enough.
