No....not everyone hates capitalism. Everyone hates uncontrolled capitalism.

Socialism isn't some magical bandaid that will make everything better. It has a shit ton of it's own problems and downfalls...nearly all of which are conveniently glossed over by leftists.

You clearly have never read anything about it, so I’d be curious to know specifically which part of socialist theory you disagree with.

Everyone hates uncontrolled capitalism

Yeah, that's capitalism. By definition, capitalism demands to be uncontrolled and without rules to bring the most profit. So when you're done pulling stuff out of thin air, let us know

But have you read enough theory? I think you need to read more of the theory.

I have definitely read enough to not write something as incoherent as

No....not everyone hates capitalism. Everyone hates uncontrolled capitalism

and just proving the OP's post right.

I think you need to read more of the theory.

I truly could not care less about the opinion of someone like you who is defending capitalism with such passion in these comments

You know there is a lot of great points in this comment, some of which I will now argue against:

You should read the theory, clearly you haven't read enough theory.
