Yesterday, libertarian blogger Julian Sanchez announced that if the right-wing Koch brothers successfully take over the libertarian Cato Institute, where he works, he’ll resign.

@LukeAlmighty But more seriously, it either sleeps over or completely justifies capitalism, and has absolutely no teeth on how to act when the capitalist system predictively starts murdering, oppressing and immiserating people. At worst, people like Hayek cheer on them!

But, since you hate capitalism, let me help you.
Next time, you want to argue about the evils of pure capitalism, try finding a total cost of treatments for a single troon.

Because troons are fucking goldmine. A life long slave to a bad decision their dumb parents made under the weight of rainbow capitalism advertising.

@LukeAlmighty That transgenderism is also mediatically pushed by pharamaceutical companies in order to create a long term consumer who has no choice but buy from them? I already knew.

@moffintosh
I am just saying, that I get the argument when it comes to big pharma or military industrial complex.

But when you take an openly socialist country inside an openly socialist union, then it becomes quite hard to blame capitalism on any macroeconomic issue.

Depends on the issue at hand, if capital or it's agents had any hand in it. See any biography of foreign engineers or consulents working on some project in the SU during the 20's-30's: basically each week, going to work, they would find that somebody smashed the new equipment during the night.
