    No one is abandoning capitalism lol

    Shit, formerly-communist countries embraced capitalism to have any sort of economy at all.

      This is a false dichotomy where the only options are capitalism and communism. In reality, there are other alternatives such as economic democracy that preserve markets but change the property relations of work

      The western world starting with millennials is, and you can see it everywhere. The system is collapsing under its own weight due to regulatory capture, climate collapse, and the destabilization of the U.S. And if that isn’t enough, I’ll likely do it my own damn self with my own life plans and goals.

      No one wants your shitty dystopian hellscape. Take it and shove it.
