"We overcame these abuses back then, and we can do it again" - I love this part as he breaks down the repeating pattern we saw at the end of the 1800's, and what happened when Americans of that day were fed up.

Is capitalism proceding in an escalating human rights catastrophe the same way it has for hundreds of years?

Why yes, yes it is.

Wrong. ↑ This is propaganda from the radical leftist Biden regime.

The government and businesses made reforms so that capitalism doesn’t do that anymore. Imagine what kind of hellscape this place’d be if they hadn’t changed when they realized how much human suffering and planetary destruction they were about to cause lmao.

Editing to add that this is sarcasm. Can you imagine “radical leftist Biden”? 😂

The American definition of radical left doesn't even qualify as Centre Right in the rest of the world, it is just pure Right. 😂

Is this a joke?

You're a little too incoherent for it to land.

[-] lars@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Apologies. Incoherence is my love language.

Then we all got love bombed. Thanks

the laugh/cry vibes you get when you realize that without a direct acknowledgement of sarcasm this could have been a real statement made by a real dumbass.

Right, also the 40 hour work week and two day weekend happened because capitalists, from the bottom of their hearts, decided to give those things to the workers.

Why can't people understand how much they really care about us and the planet?

Looks inside.

Finds planetary destruction and human suffering.

[-] NewNewAccount@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Is Biden a radical leftist tho?

[-] lars@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Trump called him “a puppet of the radical left”. So no. Absolutely not.

[-] NewNewAccount@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Well if Daddy Trump says he’s a puppet he must be a puppet.
