“We need capitalists because they have all the money”
Where exactly do they get the money from? Their own work? Of course not!
“I can’t get a job because of migrants!”
Employers are the ones who decide who gets a job or not. Blame them, not the immigrants they’re exploiting.
“I don’t want my tax money to go to bums/single mothers/immigrants/xyz group”
But you’re fine with bourgeois parasites freely taking a portion of your labour to enrich themselves?
“Full employment/universal healthcare/eradication of homelessness/cheap transport/anything good is impossible!”
No they aren’t.
“Capitalism isn’t perfect, but gommunism is le hecking evil!”
No it isn’t.


Well. It worked for over half a century; from the end of WWII to the 2008 financial crisis if I had to give a timeline. There’s a generation of white workers who have actually never known a world without access to imperial superprofits, and they’re also reliably the most right-wing segment of the working class. The privileged segment of core workers even grew for the first few decades of that period, with more and more workers getting access to the superprofits of empire through various reforms and movements. Stagnation set in with the introduction of neoliberalism, but it wasn’t until the financial crisis that it actually began its decline.
