dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Fuckhead vampire. Suck the vast majority of the planet dry for a few small yards with high fences international-community-1international-community-2 and those privileged enough to reap the rewards. Also deny those same supposed "rights and services for the public" to that same majority they feed on.

Is it perfect? No, certainly not, and I don't want it to be. I like it just the way it is. It has its flaws depending on Class and Government, and I'm in a very privileged position so I'd much prefer it over communism smuglord

Communism will win and you cannot stop it.

My preferred form of Capitalism is present in all first-world nations: guaranteeing rights for Workers and Individuals, Healthcare and Services for the Public, and Freedoms for Individuals

Those so-called "first-world" nations have already lost or are actively losing all their social safety nets, affordable housing opportunities, manufacturing base, and public services to privatization and outsourcing. What you mean is you're privileged and likely wealthy enough to be in an exceptional position of being able to benefit from whatever's left of them. They're also all cracking down on dissent brought about by civil unrest, and arbitrarily oppressing vulnerable groups in an ever escalating war on happiness and prosperity. What freedoms?

These posts do nothing but further antagonize and gaslight people who know full well their material and social conditions directly contradict your sick-to-death narratives about "capitalist exceptionalism".
