Reply #65: The "naturalism" of capitalism is a false assertion. [View All]

Capitalism isn't any more natural than Presbyterianism. The economists wanted to be like the physicists, so they fabricated atom-like events to give their "science" an appearance of primacy. The basis of the theory of capitalism is rotten, that's why it's so hard to see, there's such a superstructure built on it in the meantime. The money and power of the people at the top of the heap that this false "science" has piled up use the resources they have to suppress evidence that calls the theory into question. Capitalist theory is not falsifiable partially because the critiques don't go deep enough, and partially because the evidence for the critiques is the subject of political suppression.

Just think about all the environmental destruction, a destruction that can never be discounted by any sort of rational thought process, that is also considered inevitable because capitalism is propagandized into an appearance of inevitability. If you are an enthusiast of that perspective, you are almost literally feeding off the blood of your grandchildren, no joke or exaggeration.
