It’s dumber. ‘Capitalism’ isn’t even a thing. There’s no system or ideology or other kind of ism that merits the term ‘capitalism’. Haters of science at least have a referent to point to. Haters of ‘capitalism’ hate a straw-man.https://twitter.com/IMAO_/status/1052701749264482304 …

But that’s just, ‘there’s a legal structure in place’ You could probably say that about ancient Sumerian kingdoms and whatnot, were they ‘capitalist’? Then who’s *not*, this side of USSR and NoKo on the one hand, and complete failed-states on the other?

USSR and NK are rare states that fail to back private ownership by choice Other states fail to back private property out of inability - every one of a hundred officials wants a ten percent cut instead of there being an authority that can clamp down on competing officials
