Why are you always comparing the realities of capitalism, to the dream state of the alternatives?

The dream state of capitalism is an absolute nightmare and only by carving regulations and limitations on its dreams have we made it tolerable.

No shit, so if you want anyone to take you seriously, maybe you should be applying the same realities to whatever you're in favor of, instead of implying that removing capitalism = utopia.

Wow sure yeah let me just drop decades of lived experience and economic theory into this reply real quick cause you got defensive after someone pointed out the need to bail out capitalism regularly.

I mean I would but you’d not take any of that seriously either.

Its not your individual comment, its reading this OVER and OVER and OVER. I'm not asking for any anecdotes or google links, I'm only pointing out, again, the hypocrisy in those who have nothing to do other than whine about capitalism incessantly.
