Not really.
You mean the poverty we already have thanks to capitalism?
Yes, really.
And poverty is many many times lower today than it was a few hundred years ago before capitalism. Even entertaining the idea that it's not is completely insane. Capitalism correlates extremely strongly with low poverty country to country within a single time period, as well. 2023, for example.
No. Not really.
Did you come up with this galaxy-brained tripe before or after considering the crushing 3rd world poverty that sustains global capitalism?
According to whom, Clyde? Capitalists?
If your argument is basically just conspiracy theory, than I don't know what to tell you.
You're not proving anything, just stating vague and baseless claims, and concluding they mean what you want them to mean.
They're responding to such meaningless bullshit in an entirely appropriate way. If you want a discussion, you need to have something to discuss.
Capitalism is a conspiracy theory now?
Hold on... I need to fetch the popcorn. Your little right-wing logic pretzel is about to go full Chernobyl.
