Capitalism leads to exploitation of the working class and this sub stands against that exploitation. Therefore, it would reasonably follow that this sub is anti-capitalism.
That’s all fine and dandy, but there is a very loud minority of ideologues here that will accuse anyone that doesn’t hold their exact views of supporting capitalism/neoliberalism.
One of the worst examples I continuously see is hostility towards people that support socdem or democratic socialist policies but not a violent overthrow of the US government. People that support free healthcare, tuition free public college, high minimum wage, a wealth tax, universal unions, paid parental leave, and green energy investments. This is very much the Bernie Sanders slate of pro-worker policies. And yet if you support these a loud group of anarcho communists will attack you for supporting and saving capitalism because measures that help the workers “make capitalism more palatable” or some shit like that. How the hell are you going to accomplish anything by alienating Bernie’s millions of supporters? The capitalist class spent billions around killing his campaign because it stood to transfer so much power back to the worker. It wasn’t pro capitalism you dunces.
I am so tired of hearing that we can’t have any nice things for workers because it’s a “continuation of capitalism.” Just let us help the workers without hyper-fixating on labels! Obviously this isn’t a sub for conservatives and neoliberals but that doesn’t mean you need to alienate everyone who is not an ardent anarcho communist. ESPECIALLY when so many people are depending on us taking steps on the direction NOW or they may DIE, not waiting for a multi-decade broad ideological shift to support communism.
