    What’s this “rich kid” nonsense?, people aren’t entitled to everything in this world

    You can’t have the benefits of what capitalism creates and also expect to own everything

        It’s ok, just make sure to not imply you should get anything free in the future

      I don’t think I’ve ever seen an openly pro-capitalist in the wild on Lemmy… it’s mostly leftists, socialists, marxists, commies, tankies, and whatever political spectrum Sauron represents. Honest question—what attracted you here? Or am I misunderstanding?

        You are welcome to leave society and live in a commune mate

            The outliers can be argued, but we are discussing what capitalism has granted you currently

            You could have easily been a peasant in a farm working 16h a day

          Life expectancy increases due to technological advancement are also not exclusive to or attributable to capitalism

      Capitalism doesn’t create anything, it just guarantees that the majority of the profits go to people who don’t do any fucking work
