    Maybe you're thinking of Denmark or Sweden. Both highly capitalist. Maybe you're thinking of China, whose thriving economy is only as thriving as how far in capitalist reforms it has gone
    You keep living in the money makes people happy and that's all that matters realm. You'll go far. Meaning it'll have no effect on your life but you seem to be happy doing what you do. FIGHT THE POWER.

    No I don't. The fact that you think that shows that you're not paying attention to a side of the argument.

    He didn't lead with Godwin's, and even if he did, he acknowledged it and it served a specific purpose. I'm not sure how you knock somebody for being straight up. We're supposed to be adults. It's hyper childish to not be able to talk about hard things

    If you're confused on why I say "he didn't lead with Godwin's", it's because Godwin's is an observation of what happens in discussions. It says: the longer a discussion goes on, the more likely Hitler is to be mentioned. Using Hitler or Nazis in an argument is not Godwin, but that doesn't stop everybody from thinking it is. Godwin himself said it's a satirical observation about the internet, and if you were to try to be serious about it statistically, you can replace "Hitler" with any other thing, and it would still be accurate, because the law is basically "the longer something happens, the more likely something else is to happen".
