Well, economic system is flawed because mutated ape is flawed. It's all flawed everything is flawed.

So y'all just gonna ignore all of human history showing that it's not a modern thing?

Humans have been dog shit from the beginning. Always at war, multiple genocides, constant ethnic cleansings, torture en masse, all of these things have been prevalent in all of recorded history.

As bad as capitalism is it's just another example of humanities inability to just be fucking decent to each other.

This is just a thought terminating cliche that capitalists have developed now that the problems with the system are undeniable. It’s the classic retort of the scum bag, after they’ve realized “I didn’t do it” won’t fly, to say “well, everyone does it!"
