What does capitalism have to do evil?

Name: Anonymous 2007-04-04 2:39 ID:zO5rKsYh

I believe it is my duty to case mocking liberals for my own entertainment and reveal what you are incapable of thinking without a person of average intelligence to aid you. That's right, I'm about to prove you wrong and I am not claiming to be an "intellectual" like some arrogant smug cunt, I'm using it to prove you are an idiot which is the truth. Also I am going to tell it to you straight, I'm not going to attempt social engineering and come up with some nonsensical bullshit in order to hide my true intentions which does nothing but insult the intelligence of the people exposed to it.

Capitalism isn't the cause of all the problems you attribute to it. Capitalism is just an economic system with as many problems with corruption as communism or any other economic system.

It's elementary logic.

A occurs in the presence of B. Does this mean B is the cause of A? It does not.

The real cause of corruption and immoral behaviour are systems which permit people to do so and in which motivation to enforce justice is utilised to a high degree. Both capitalism and communism fail to do this in comparison to the free market, which is a completely seperate philosophy and has no place in your over-simplified abstract almost child-like view of the world.

You are idiots.

>>12

You do care about liberalism
You keep trying to accuse me of being a liberal/communist/godknowswhat.
I am not. I merely want to vomit every time I see the angry armchair ideologue go off on a rant about something he doesn't understand, or care to learn about. I assumed you were one based on the content of >>1

I am a reactionary? To what? Your ideals?
There you go. The ideals you think I have anyway.

ignore my arguments
You simply haven't MADE any arguments. I'm not even sure you have any kind of goal here beside trolling libtards and moonbats.

Adam Smith's idea of the free market is nothing like Marx's idea of capitalism.
Yea Gods! Marx was a fucking COMMUNIST, not a CAPITALIST.
CAPITALISM =/= COMMUNISM
Karl MARX: communist
Adam SMITH: capitalist
Marx and Smith are polar opposites.

>Yes, I do use a dictionary.
look up:
COMMUNISM
LIBERALISM
CAPITALISM
FREE MARKET

does this mean you agree with me that there is a [critically major] difference
between the ... [soft] science of free market economics and the idealism of communism?

This much is common sense that only a fool would argue against. Even fools could still be right about something though.

I don't need to have read...
I don't need to spend 3 years studying PHD...
Agreed, but PLEASE, at the very least make an effort to understand what it is your arguing about.

If marxist intellectuals are so superior
why is their argument so weak that they must avoid debate?
Because they make false assumptions about human nature, much like libertarian socialists and anarcho-capitalists, only to a slighty less embarrassing extent (but only very slightly).

I am a scientist...
I assume you have some degree of some kind then.. in what? Where did you get it? Can you prove this?
Perhaps i am wrong and this is merely a self-identification as a believer in evidence based reasoning, and not another attempt at grand-standing.

compose my own opinions based on the facts
what facts? were you home-schooled? I'm beginning to think so. I don't wish to waste my time, trying to help you understand.

criticism of my person.
I don't know anything about you, I can only possibly criticize the messages that you yourself have written.

liberalism =/= communism
liberalism =/= socialism
liberalism is an ideology supporting free markets, the foundation of capitalism.
communism is anti-capitalist.
socialism is something like a halfway point between both.

With this information, read over >>1 again.
See how you failed to make anything resembling a valid argument.
If you can't absorb these concepts, my only recourse will be to move on and just assume that i have been wasting my time trying to converse with a self-diagnosed aspie.
