I am one of those people who will trace every societal problem back to capitalism, but only because it&#39;s completely accurate to do so.

@nonehitwonder You can also trace some of those back to white supremacy but yeah, uncover that and it's just capitalism again.

@johntinker this is a fascinating take. I'm gonna be thinking about this a lot today.

@nonehitwonder Capitalism is only *one* way for the few to accumulate power over many. Definitely, let's get rid of capitalism, but let's make sure we also don't end up with another system where few egomaniacs have too much power (hello USSR...)
