Again, the whole point I’m saying isn’t “there is nothing wrong with capitalism”. It’s that most of what’s wrong within capitalism is also wrong within other systems because they’re not proper to capitalism.
Capitalism is being able to accumulate capital and use them to your benefits. This survey pretends that 51% of the youth are not individualistic, that they would prefer that whether or not they work hard or not shouldn’t benefit them individually, and that they’ll just be happy being provided whatever the people as a whole deem proper.
That’s just plain false.
Are people disillusioned about how things are? Of course. They’re unhappy because they are in a weak position, not because of the system itself.
You’re like a child who still thinks Santa is real, you welded some half-baked Tolkienian conception of power onto your brain, where power is some nebulous metaphysical, all-consuming entity that corrupts everything it touches, instead of what it really is which is a series of social relationships meditated thru the dominant mode of production and its environs
The first step in forming coherent political beliefs is recognizing you severely miseducated yourself with mass media and literary tropes, there’s a real world out there, and you should engage with it instead of shooting your mouth about concepts you don’t comprehend

You know what really benefits capitalists, taking over the state, and you know what makes that easy, having lots of capital
In other words a systemic incentive for capitalism to degard into capitalist oppression because of an inherent feature specific to capitalism
You literally dont know what capitalism is or how power manifests in the world
So I guess there is no power imbalance in other systems either… lol.
Yeah dumb fuck that’s definitely what I said lmao
