Does anyone still agree with capitalism?

Is it not a major part of being human being human being able to overcome basic animal instincts because we have an understanding of morality and live by principle?

thank you.

do you rape every girl on the street just because your "instincts" tell you? it would be in your biological interest to do so. like, by definition, every woman you can dominate because you are stronger then her or stronger than her friend should be raped to produce more offsprings.

well i am glad we dont do that.

everywhere else people are sucking humanitys cocks on how great we are, how much better we are then animals, how we are allowed to treat the world like shit, but now, all of a sudden, we are simple cavemen that do whatever we want, kill whoever we want, take away from others without consequences? like, without morals? without arguably the only thing that makes us humans?

Yes and no. You cannot completely remove our natural instinct of survival. That is impossible. Some people have a stronger resistance to such an urge, while others do not. Humans are not perfect. We are self-serving beings inherently.

Look at the majority of the wars throughout history. It was for land, food, and gold. What do all those things have in common? They are needed for survival. No longer is the instinct pitting man versus man, it is pitting country versus country, company versus company, CEO versus CEO. They all want the same thing; to survive. Like kings and rulers of old, they are at the whims of their subjects (stockholders). If they do not provide, they will not survive.

Its called game theory retard. You cant stop people from trying to improve their own lives. With that FACT in mind, capitalism is the most fair system.

Where should we stop with equality? Good looking people have better lives than ugly people. They fuck hooter girls and have people overall treat them more kindly. Should we beat all the good looking people in the face until they are as ugly as everyone else?
No. We shouldnt. And we shouldnt punish people for being smart either. But we do punish people for being smart. Its called taxes
