7. What do you mean "we", white man? |

I never consented to being mugged, beaten up, robbed, and stomped on.

13. "We" as in everyone who contributes to feeding the machine. |

8. Not "capitalism", but the unregulated Caveat Emptor version. |

I hate people over-simplifying complicated systems. Both pure Capitalism and pure Socialism are very fucked-up and are inherently doomed to fail. This is not a competition.
Educate yourself.

They also don't exist outside of sterile academic discussions.
Yes, it is a "competition." One group of people, one class, wants to destroy the planet and impoverish or kill all of us. Some here are advocating that we fight back and save humanity and the planet.
