They haven't overthrown shit.

This is what capitalism is and what it always leads to: siphoning all power to the top small % of people.

[–] Slotos@feddit.nl 10 points 6 months ago (6 children)

As we all know, siphoning of the power to the small percentage of people had never happened prior to capitalism.

I never said nor implied anything about any other system. I spoke about capitalism.

Ahhh, some fresh whataboutism!

[–] anarchrist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 6 months ago

Not the point. Look into economics of scale. Capitalism does this shit as a rule.

If other systems have the same effect, it's a problem with them too. But it's still a problem with capitalism.

As we all know, the workers get tired of it, revolt and the 1% disappear

[–] theshatterstone54@feddit.uk 4 points 6 months ago

Not really. They just get replaced by the people leading the revolution (there are exceptions of course, like Robespierre in the French Revolution).
