@mnutty Marx tells it:
a) Capitalism becomes Fascism
b) Fascism becomes war
There are lots of #capitalist societies that have not followed that sorry continuum.
That said, the transition to #fascism is far more likely in the absence of robust regulation of #capitalism
Capitalism is still unacceptable even if it doesn't lead to fascism in a specific case. Saying it can be kept in check with enough regulation is no different than saying slavery could be acceptable with enough regulation.
I imagine our views on #capitalism are quite different. I believe properly regulated it can provide extraordinary opportunities to both society and individuals in the creation of new products and services.
Aligning all forms of capitalism with slavery seems like an excessive stretch. A stretch that I see with many capitalist types advocating for the destruction of vital government services
Capitalism profit over human needs, which inevitably leads to exploitation and inequality. Regulation can't change capitalism's inherent fundamental flaws. Even a regulated capitalism serves the ruling class.
