Hey friends, just trying to get an idea of how people think of capitalism in different communities. What first comes to mind when you think of that word? Is it your national or international retail giants, resource extraction, or logistics companies? Or perhaps your local diner, hardware or convenience store? The black market? Or something else?
A big ball that consumes all it touches, that will destroy the world if it can because that is part of its purpose.
It is disabling, and has conditioned people to accept it through its unlimited use of propaganda and wars in order to control the populace.
It takes and takes and gives little back.
It is against how things should be, and could be said to be unnatural.
It is about power and control over the populace, sadly few realise this because of said propaganda and because they believe nothing better could exist due to it limiting their imagination, time, energy and organising.
The ‘big ball that consumes all’ might be my favorite imagery used as a response to this question. Thank you 😊
You’re welcome. It is genuinely how we imagine it.
