Can you give me a quick definition according to Marxists of personal and private property?

It is possible, but not worth it.

That is capitalist realism for you.

That is realism. Which is usually quite valuable if you want to change a system.

You seem hell bent on apply the label capitalist as an epithet on just about everyone you respond to. Can you quickly tell us what you think it will accomplish?

Fun with labels. Generalization is for the lazy.

My deep, multi week long, post history? You must really know me.

You have no idea what systems I support, yet you assume I support capitalism because I didn’t agree with you, which says a lot. The only evidence of my beliefs I have provided is that I do not support your approach. Further, I do not believe your rhetoric is a genuine attempt to make the world any better for anyone.

You used the wrong quote from yourself. What you quoted from me was a reaction to this gem of a statement:

If you support capitalism and you’re not a capitalist you’re just a bootlicker.

which is black and white, and typical of us-good versus them-bad argument fallacies. If you live and participate in a capitalist system, as the vast majority of humanity does, you are, to some degree, supporting it.

Based on the comments in this thread I take your position to be it’s a matter of degree of support. Owning a truck isn’t capital, it’s apparently got to be a lot to make someone a capitalist. That is not leftist or anti-capitalist, but simply “eat the rich”. Most people exist in classes that participate in ways that keep the lower earners below. I do not believe most humans think this great system for all but feel helpless, and participate as a way to simply exist.

Surely spreading insulting, erudite rhetoric in online is not the solution.

Dang, for a moment I considered that you might have independent thoughts. This LemmtGradChatGPT BS ruined it.

And you live on your own self-sustaining compound, posting from your open hardware, fabricated in free factories, Libre software OS and applications, with compost-generated power? Didn’t think so. Welcome to the gray zone bootlicker.
