Bother to read any post I have made in the healthcare thread or most other threads and you'd find I support single payer nationalized healthcare. I'm not very capitalistic.

who are you trying to fool. you say you are, and yet fail to do any criticising at all, and have vehemently defended it and cried MUH WHATABOUTISM at every turn. stop lying, you're terrible at it.

Since apparently two people cannot emotionally handle me criticizing Mao and to be honest are probably just trying to bait me into getting into trouble with moderation, both of them are now added to my foes list.

Not everyone who doesn't like Trump is an anti-capitalist. He's a conservative social democrat I think.

To an extent yes, though that's still anti-capitalist. I'm definitely not pro-capitalist and wouldn't inherently object to seeing it go.

I wasn't. I wanted him to acknowledge that free market capitalism isn't immune to criticism as far as preventable deaths go.

No I ask because they defended Mao(?)

I’m not sure what exactly everyone’s ideologies are because there’s too many people, there is one open Maoist here

"you're a Maoist! you want the great leap! you're defending the cultural revolution!" seems to be one of two rhetorical tools you have in this thread, the other being "you're a Stalinist! you want the great purge! you're defending the gulags!"

More like an unwillingness to comprehend words or being deliberately obtuse. They can say what they want. I'm not clicking "display this post."

Do I need to ask the Queen to wag her finger at you and tell you all to behave?
