Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

ITT: tons of people defending capitalism by forswearing the last 200,000 years of social progress.
To quote Bernie, who might have been quoting someone else: poverty isn't an inevitability. It's a policy choice.
Just plain inaccurate. There are no staunch capitalists on this website.
That being said, getting to do work and gain access to goods through that can provide a sense of safety as you are able to sustain yourself. But there are loads of caveats to every part of that sentence.
