    I’m a capitalist. The person you are responding to sounded very reasonable.

    “the US doesn’t like”

    That’s very true. The us does not like north Korea. That isn’t saying north Korea is good. It’s just saying there are motives at play to make north Korea look as bad as possible.

    If I said Jeffrey Epstein was a cannibal, you can say “no he wasn’t” without thinking he was a good person.

      Not really important, but a capitalist is someone who has a significant amount of capital.

      Someone who supports the existence of capitalism is called a liberal.

      What on earth do you think you saying you are a capitalist does?

      There are smart communists, and as you so succinctly prove, capitalists that are less so.

        Pointing out I can disagree with someone’s ideas and still recognize when they are being very reasonable.

        capitalists that are less so.

        Ah the ol’ “you’re stupid” rebuttal. Works every time. Automatic win in every debate lol
