OP in that thread has some real bangers in their comment history like "not going into debt is Marxist activism"
On the subject of Marxism, if people stopped getting into debt a lot less money would be flowing to the top. Banks would have fewer profits and their power would shrink. Therefore abstaining from debt could even be considered a kind of activism. The best kind of activism really, because it actually makes you wealthier.
Also they just straight up defend being a landlord insisting it's a ton of work lmao.
Back on Reddit I had an esoteric fascist argue to me that capitalism was something invented by Marxists and doesn't really exist, so I guess it could be worse.
The irony is that they’re right but for the wrong reasons. Capitalism would collapse if debt as an economic tool ceased to exist. But paying off your credit card in full every month isn’t going to do that.

This is why we can't have nice things. Like this is just an insult to the entirety of Marx's work.

Judeo-capitalist-bolshevism. They are really unifying all their phobias.
If it wasn't invented by, the term capitalism certainly was popularized by Marxists.
I suspect that's not what they meant though.
the only way I'm arguing with this person is using a crowbar
really buried the lede there
