    How are they shooting themselves in the foot? By not listening to their enemies smugly tell them what they should do?

      Well, capitalists probably don't really want to live in the horrible world their greed created, you know, this fucking world. But their greed blocks them from improving it.

      Sadly, 99.999999% of capitalists pigs don't face any consequence ever, no matter how big of a crisis they create.

        Capitalists live in fully automated luxury communism already. They love this world. Their greed might make them unhappy, but otherwise, they have everything.

          But no matter how many pinkertons they hire, they still have to jump over hobos and poor people from time to time. And some might not like climate change flooding their beach houses.

            They do. Not. Care. They would literally rather deal with that then give you an inch.

              Yes, of course. Is just that, particularly here in latam, white rich fucks are always moaning about "oh I don't belong to this filthy country filled with mosquitoes and brown people that is poor because they are brown, I should be living in Europe like my great grandparents, where everything is nice and good".

              What they are craving, besides racism, is a fucking country with a non-colony-like economy together with social policies that result in low poverty. But if you mention them "let's try to have some of those policies here" they piss and moan and shit themselves and call a death squad on you.

              YES, a lot of it is racism, white poor fucks moan the same, but you get it.

              Yeah, they are shooting themselves in the foot AND they don't care and will never give you an inch.

          They resent the tensions that exist in the world.

          FALC wouldn't need to spend one sixth of all generalized income on security- and that's a lowball estimate.

        Yes, but they only exist as a last resort! FDR-style Social Democracy happened because the entire world had melted down and there was not only an active Communist state, but also recent attempted revolutions in other Western states (Germany most notably with Spain right after it go going), and militant labor.

        Now, we are nowhere near the condiotions of the Depression, not even fucking close (and the refusal to acknowledge this is a big problem). Now, we just have a bunch of non-profit/media careerists and desperate, usually mentally ill, beggars who think that their cause is the most important thing in the world and you're a bigot if you don't immediately ask for exactly what they want (but have zero institutional power or mass support for)

        Capitalists don't give social democratic reforms unless they absolutely have to. Claiming that the reforms are "inevitable" and negotiating surrender before you're even in trouble is fucking loser talk, you don't do that shit!

            How are they shooting themselves in the foot? Social Democracy is the "in case of emergency, break glass" option. Capitalists have lots of other ways to protect themselves once it all comes crumbling down...

          What?
