    I just wish we had a bit more political balance here… I’m not talking about fascists, but more people that don’t blame everything on capitalism would be kind of nice…

      You have to realize how mesmerizingly obtuse your comment is?

      Not trying to get into a whole ugly thing, just curious what your pro-capitalism stance is. Because I would definitely fall into this big Lemmy category of seeing 90-905% of modern problems being rooted in capitalism. So I would (civilly!) disagree, no doubt. Doesn’t mean we can’t have a reasonable discussion!

        I would also be interested in a defence of capitalism that doesn’t come down to “but the USSR” or similar.

      That’s gonna be kind of an issue in a network where civil discourse and disagreement falls between calling people a Nazi/fascist at best and wishing them double death by murder rape at worst

        Just picturing that, as you type this, you have a swastika tattoo on your forehead.
