Liberals benefit from this shitty economy. That’s why they believe in it.
I mean, I call myself a Marxist, but I am also benefiting immensely from this economy right now because, while I despise capitalism and colonialism and imperialism and patriarchy, I’m not really doing anything about it. If these systems weren’t working so well for me (if, for instance, it became impossible for me to get food), I would be a lot more inclined to riot rather than to just whine on the internet and attempt in vain to convert my last few liberal friends to communism.
