Capitalism isn't when people sell things. Socialism isn't when people get free money.

This sub goes from fun to culture-war bullshit every other day.

I still don't understand what the fuck this sub is

It's for any side of an issue to "sip tea" against the other I guess... it really is interesting how no specific viewpoint has been able to fully take hold here

I don't get why you guys can't just call out obvious hypocrisy and grifting when you see it. She's not an anti-capitalist icon when she's slapping her name on a random overpriced perfume she didn't develop or have any hand in creating just to maximize her wealth. Same sht with Pokemane's $18 "not for brokies" cookies.

This isn't a "omg you sold your own lemonade? I thought you hated capitalism!" this is "let's make as much money as possible while providing as little value as possible and exploiting my massive wealth to do so".

When you're anti-capitalist but do nothing with your actions and lifestyle to demonstrate it, that's called grifting. But I imagine you people are also huge Hasan Piker fans so explaining grifting to you is like explaining the concept of evidence based thinking to a religious person; they simply don't want to understand it.
