So everybody on Lemmy is non-capitalist is what you're saying?

If that were the case (which it isnt) I dont see a problem defending billionaires (and on the side also everybody's freedom and justice)...

Thats still very much generalizing. What this meme essentially says is that if you're a capitalist, you're not part of Lemmy.

On a seperate note, you cant possibly know how many people on Lemmy actually support capitalism or not. It has a left tendency, yes, but I bet the majority of Lemmx users do support caputalidm in some shape or form.

Why not? Capitalism is the most fair system to me.

Fairness is subjective. To me it means: everyone is free to do what they like WITHOUT invading anybody elses freedom; if a person performs well, they should be rewarded well; everyone should have the same initial possibilities in life.

The version of capitalism I was talking about is capitalism with a regulated market. Basic needs should be covered (except if you refuse to contributr anything at all). Im pretty happy with the "social market economy" in Germany where I currently live.

But how am I gonna get someone to work for me without invading their freedom to choose to do what they want?

By offering them something in return...? Money for example, from which one can buy nice things.

That's how we do it! That's what gets people working for me - the threat that not doing so will put 'em on the street!

Not contributing anything at all wont work in any system or sosciety. Or in what system can I lay in bed all day and get everything I need for free?

You can do what you like but you asked me how to get people working for you so I made a proposal.

Do you actually have a point or are you just being ridiculous because you have no arguments?

Whats your point? I explained why I find capitalism to be a fair system and further elaborated on what I concidered "fair". What are you trying to say or are you just trolling?

One group took 2 years to organize an attack on civilians, the other didnt...

This was on a different level though. Taking civilian hostages? Launching rockets with the target being a music festival?

Thats a huge downplay of what the actual Nazis did if you refer to right-leaning people as that.

　just berate my ideological opponents because they genuinely are losers

Im astonished at how closed-minded and brainwashed you seem. Maybe actually think about why you would fight for a opinion that is not based on "well reasoned and researched arguments"... It really seems like youre arguing for another person's opinion rather than having your own.
