Another Fucking Think Piece

I don’t think that any rational citizen is out there arguing that capitalism itself is somehow objectively foul. That’s a strawman argument. What people are saying is that the current version of the American capitalist” (arguably — if America was truly a free market, domestic oil companies would be a distant memory by now, not to mention most of Wall Street) system is not a well-regulated market, but a hegemonic and monopolistic nightmare that serves only those individuals at the very apex of the profit structure — and actively harms all the rest. I think this is not only a reasonable point to make, but an urgent one.

One other point: as I’ve mentioned before, the Republican ability to unify and disseminate their messaging is awe-inspiring even considering its repugnant content. The reason Hickenlooper is resisting being labelled a capitalist is because the Republican messaging platform has successfully framed the public argument in terms of Capitalist (read: Republican) v. Socialist (read: Democrat)” — even though the actual conflict is between Executives and Heirs of Immense Corporate Fortunes V. Everybody Else In Literally The Entire World, If We’re Including Climate Change In The Conversation”.

Up next Republican Misinformation The decision not to debate on Fox is shortsighted and could hurt the party and its candidates. The pullquote: “Ms. Mair is a Republican strategist.” Felicity Huffman Arrested Today for Elite College Bribe Scheme; Lori Loughlin Charged — Update #tags: news Good. Everyone should be held accountable, no matter how talented they are nor how correct their politics. Believe in ideas not people
