  Can I see the evidence? inb4 you deflect and refuse to cite anything

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Moon talk⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  So the evidence doesn’t exist yet, but you’ve decided the conclusion anyway. That’s exactly the problem I’m pointing out. This is what MAGA does btw

  I’m glad we agree capitalism has problems

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Moon talk⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  At least you’re honest about pushing a narrative rather than engaging with evidence

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Moon talk⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The civil war has a clearly dominant causal factor that historians overwhelmingly agree upon. Modern socio economic issues don’t have that same level of single cause consensus. That’s why boiling everything down to ‘capitalism’ is overly reductive

  It feels really gaslighting/dismissive to read things like this. Why is it that people who talk about concepts like capitalism assume a bunch of information about you based on a complete lack of information? Is the idea the only reason I’m not anti capitalist must either be because a) I’m rich (extremely far from the truth), or b) I’m especially susceptible to propaganda? (Which would be weird… Otherwise why would I be using Lemmy in the first place when perhaps capitalism instead suggests I should be using Reddit).

  My opinion: It kind of sucks to reduce people down like this lol. Am I insane for thinking this

  It’s very convenient that the explanation for a complex series of problems is reducible to just ‘capitalism’. Isn’t it like saying WWI only started because of the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand?
