Where did I do any apologizing for anyone?
Where did I say humans can't live in anything else than capitalism?
What does Marx have to do with anything?
Perhaps you should try to read my comment better.
"That is why democracies fare best in capitalism while other systems tend to devolve to authoritarianism."
Your own words...
Apologists.
How does that apologize "the ruling class"? Is saying "democracy is good" apologising Trump?
I merely claim capitalism is the most workable system we have. I am not defending the greedy assholes in power.
The fact that you ask for an explanation is telling on how you view class war.
Apologist, because in your view there is no other system but capitalism. You have already given up and are allowing those that would enslave you more to do so.
You don't see the chains on your wrists because you are comfortable.
Democracy is independent of an economic system.
If you believe in democracy so much, maybe we should have it in the workplace? That would sound much more democratic than what we have now, no?
