A simple argument shows that capitalism is theft and workers have an inalienable right to workplace democracy - 35 minute video

"David Ellerman: Neo-Abolitionism: Towards Abolishing the Institution of Renting Persons"

The talk argues that employment contract is invalid due to inalienable rights. Inalienable means can’t be given up even with consent. Workers’ inalienable rights are rooted in their joint de facto responsibility for all production in the firm

Simple != 35 minute video.

I've seen great arguments done in a 4 panel comic here on Lemmy.

I'm a little worried about the level of critical thinking around here if people really feel that "great" arguments can be expressed in a four panel comic.

The world is not simple, and memes can not make a valid worldview.

The world isn't simple, but some arguments can be.

Simple is also different from easy.
