@matrix You can criticize capitalism while still engaging in it, but maybe you should at least avoid the worst excesses of it to not look stupid.
@ArdanianRight @matrix It doesn't help that most leftist criticisms of capitalism are actually criticisms of society, and they use capitalism as a strawman because addressing the actual causes of the concerns they're voicing would require a long, hard, and extremely uncomfortable look in the mirror.
@mrsaturday @ArdanianRight @matrix Hard to disagree with this. All of the people I know IRL who are the most brazenly consumerist trash are all extremely vapid leftards who are chitankies and are into other communist/cultural Marxist nonsense.
@matrix i dont need new computers to play Ultima Online or Baldur's Gate 2 or Diablo 2 or even Final Fantasy 11
