    Conservatism Capitalism has always been an ideology that’s opposed to progress, democracy and freedom.

    There you go, I fixed that for you.

    All political entities serve the needs of capital first and foremost in a capitalist system, people are only a secondary…if that.

      Speaking as a Marxist, this is false. Capitalism was once the historical progressive force against feudalism. This was already waning two centuries ago, but it was not always true.

        Glad another Marxist said it. The problem isn’t that capitalism was always the wrong choice, it’s that we’re clinging to it long beyond its best before date.
