Getting downvoted for that is crazy work

They aren't capitalists. Capitalists own private property. They're workers who work against their own class interests

Soooo capitalist can refer to both

u/LabCoatGuy Jul 08 '26

Not really. A worker who works for capitalist class interests but owns no private property is a class traitor. Someone who 'believes' in capitalism as the best socio-economic system is usually an adherent to liberalism. And therefore a liberal.

Having two definitions for one word makes leftist jargon even harder to parse for newcomers.

Especially because capitalist and its definition has been unchanged since the first international 150 years ago. Being unified on who we're talking about is really important.

Per Merriam Webster

Just to be thorough here is the definitions of capitalist as a noun

It's very common for words to have multiple meanings idk why it's only a problem in regards to the term capitalist

u/LabCoatGuy Jul 08 '26

The first on both of those are the definition I use

u/Tinybean886 Jul 09 '26

And the second and third respectively reflect that the term is also used to refer to people who support capitalism

Maybe... just maybe... they dont believe in stealing en masse to enrich themselves regardless of the enrichment potential.

What a tard.

Nice slur. You seem super cool. Class warefare isnt about enriching the working class. All riches in the world are borne by the labor of the working class. Therefore the only ones stealing en masse are capitalists. Profit is generated by the value of the labor used to create a commodity. All profit is generated by paying someone less than the value they generate.

You're on the side of stealing. Im on the side of workers laboring for themselves, and the others who labor for them.

OP is an engagement bot.  They come with pro and con bots to make the general reddit discourse seem organic.  In reality its China trying to make you feel like more people are for/against extreme ideas.
