I’m not anti-capitalist; it has done a lot of good for the world. But unbridled capitalism, untethered to ethical considerations, has done great damage too. It helped create the problem and it is not the answer now. This isn’t about profit for anyone; it’s only about saving lives

Pple need to start thinking historically. "Capitalism has done a lot of good for the world"... So did feudalism. But when the conditions changed, the society had to move on. We're being forced to move on now. If we don't, the survival of the human population is questionable.

Join us, Marianne. Capitalism has run its course and there’s no saving it.

I don't think you really understand capitalism if you're tweeting like this about it, let alone in the middle of a #pandemic.

This is not the vibe, Orb Mom.

What good has it done and at whose expense? All the "good" that has been done comes from workers and labour, not capital.

capitalism will always be unbridled. you cant regulate a profit motive. greed and corruption will always win in the end.
