Capitalism is the worst economical system, but there is no better alternatives, as a ukrainian watching other developed countries i feel sad about my cumminist in the past country
This idea, ‘there is no alternative’, is a keystone of the neoliberal ideology. It is a delusion. It is the mistake of thinking the current system is a fact of nature, somehow an inescapable feature of human civilization. We know that this system has not always existed, and was not always universal. We also know, if we just open our eyes, that it has failed and is collapsing. So. Regardless of the validity of the concept that there is no alternative, we had better imagine one.
