    I say we have it pretty damn good to be part of a capitalist society

    This community is for posting anti-capitalist memes

      So no one else with any differing opinion of any kind is allowed to post here. Got it. You only want to hear what supports your narrow point of view. Great way to go through life, bud.

        Well if you want to see anything that supports capitalism you can go to millions of other places, it’s exhausting hearing the same tired comebacks over and over again so people that support true leftism tend to like spaces that are more specific for that. This is a community called “Lefty Memes”, I’m sure most people that follow this follow other communities as well that are less specific. Though I think it can be good for less left or pro-capitalists to discuss their views in these sorts of places.

        If you went to a sub for a hobby just to say you dislike it then you’d expect a similar reaction. Just saying this place exists to spread anti-capitalist memes so you shouldn’t be surprised that people disagree with pro-capitalist opinions, if anything it’s the one thing you should expect, and if you don’t like it just don’t engage, easy. Doesn’t mean you can’t comment as long as you’re in line with the same rules as everyone else.

        I don’t think my point of view is intuitive because I didn’t come to it easily, but it’s not like you know my point of view anyway you’re just expressing a prejudice. I’m surrounded by a society that is fueled by a suicide pact with the planet and fundamentally disagrees with my point of view, a random angry internet commenter doesn’t even register on this scale.

          I’m expressing a prejudice? Well look in the mirror. I’m not the one all upset over someone else’s meaningful comment that deserves to be recognized as a valid if differing point of view. The problem with the world is, it’s become a suicide pact because of this attitude; if an opinion doesn’t align with yours then it must be wrong or “just a hobby.” You’re just as judgmental as everyone else.

            Expressing a contrarian opinion for the sake of getting people to disagree so you can call them dumb basically, on a meme page, then being self-aggrandizing about it. Assuming that people who disagree with you simply haven’t considered your point of view is a touch grass moment.
