“I am critical of the surveillance heavy capitalist system I live in so I’ll just go ahead and shift my argument to anti-communism.”

As is tradition.

    What’s that line “ask a communist why they hate capitalism, you’ll get an answer. Ask a capitalist why they hate communism and they’ll describe capitalism”?

      ask a communist and a capitalist to criticize each others’ ideas, and they’ll both describe capitalism.

      The refreshing one is when you ask a capitalist why they hate communism and they do just describe communism. Which when you describe it is unequivocally a good thing to anyone who isn’t a billionaire.
