All communists do is lie and invert the truth.

So what's wrong?

For starters within the first ten seconds of the video he claims capitalism doesn’t incentivize innovation to what people actually need, but that’s exactly what markets signal. People who meet market demand are rewarded for doing so. Capitalism creates the most incentive for people to create value for their fellow man. No other system comes close.

@earlkralik no, he said people want affordable housing, health care, education and good public transportation. That's simply true.

That’s interesting, but the data shows capitalism has greatly improved the human condition.

Schon wieder jemand, der überzeugt ist, d i e s m a l klappe das mit der Planwirtschaft aber garantiert. Und Krauter offenbart erneut, wess' Geistes Kind er ist.

Zum Glück gibt es Staaten ohne Kapitalismus wie Kuba, Venezuela, Nord Korea usw. die der Welt zeigen, wie man Armut bekämpft 😆 Durch den Siegeszug des Kapitalismus hat sich die Armut massiv verringert. Trotzdem Danke fürs posten, auch wenn es Müll ist.

He does not say who pays for unprofitable "innovations" he so desires...

Capitalism doesn’t limit what you can achieve. You are the limit. That’s the part people keep trying to talk around with a podcast voice and a ring-light moral lecture: capitalism is not a ceiling, it’s a sorting mechanism. It doesn’t guarantee outcomes. It doesn’t hand out participation trophies. It doesn’t care about your “lived experience” of being disappointed. It offers opportunities, and it punishes delusion—often brutally, sometimes unfairly, always indifferently. It creates abundance because it ties reward to solving problems other people will voluntarily pay to have solved. That’s the whole scandal. Value isn’t produced by wishing, declaring, or resenting—it’s produced by work, by risk, by competence, by persistence, by delayed gratification, by building something that survives contact with reality. The reason shops are full, medicine exists, logistics works, and you can sit in a chair complaining into a phone made of rare earths and global supply chains is precisely because someone, somewhere, was allowed to profit from getting things right. Is it perfect? Fucking no. It’s human. It has fraud. It has nepotism. It has rent-seekers. It has people who inherit advantages and people who waste them. It has boom-and-bust. It has executives who should be fired and regulators who should be jailed and activists who should be ignored. And yet, compared to every alternative that’s been attempted at scale, it produces more food, more shelter, more safety, more longevity, more choice, more knowledge, and more upward mobility over time than any system that tries to replace it with force and slogans. What you’re actually bitching about isn’t capitalism. It’s scarcity. Nature is cruel, time is limited, energy is costly, mistakes are expensive, and you don’t get everything you want just because you want it. Capitalism merely refuses to lie to you about that. It doesn’t tell you the universe owes you a living. It tells you the bill comes due somewhere—and you can either pay it with effort and ingenuity, or you can pay it later with failure. And yes, underneath the theatrical outrage, there’s usually the same little acid core: envy. Not concern for the poor—envy of the rich. Not anger at injustice—anger that someone else has more. Not a plan—an accusation. Because it’s easier to call a system “violent” than to admit you haven’t built anything worth buying. So no: capitalism isn’t perfect. It’s just the least-worst option we’ve found for turning human ambition into groceries and electricity instead of mass graves. If you’ve got something better, bring details—mechanisms, incentives, enforcement, error correction, and how you prevent the inevitable parasites from taking over. Until then, spare everyone the Zanzibar-West “truths” and just say what you mean: you want reality to rewrite itself so you can feel less bitter in it.

Not 100% necessary to be stupid to say something stupid, but it helps

You talk about Trump?

move to North Korea

This is the idiocy of the left. They would decide where capital and labor should go. And if it is wasted or lost they would never be held accountable. Capitalism make sure that there is accounting for waste fraud and abuse and limits the control of government cronies.

China Shows that the opposite is true

You mean with their unsustainable provincial debt? With literal empty apartment towers…and they just keep kicking the can down the road

Links sein ist eine Geisteskrankheit, die die Befallenen dazu bringt, an eine Ideologie zu glauben, die für die Ermordung von mehr als 100 Mio. Menschen verantwortlich ist und trotzdem zu glaube, auf der Seite der Guten zu stehen.

This guy is a doofus

This is the level of analysis that Karl Marx was working at and that's not intended as a compliment.

Die Wahrheit über die Klimareligion: Es geht dem Solarpapst nicht um die Umwelt, es geht darum zentralistisch geplante Mangelwirtschaft einzuführen.

"For capital, the purpose of production is not, in fact, to meet human needs... The objective is singularly clear, which is to maximize and accumulate profit." How do these companies generate profit? By satisfying human needs. If the public desires the Turbotron 5000 and Company X meets this demand, the business will be profitable.

Keiner weiß, wovon wie viel gebaut werden muss. Das regelt der Markt viel besser als alle Experten. Wenn der Markt versagt, liegt es eigentlich immer daran, dass der Staat zu stark interveniert oder im schlimmsten Fall in einer Interventionsspirale gefangen ist.

hier sieht man wieviel Unrecht er hat

This is a braindead take.

Unterkomplexität, die Ist im Kapitalismus alles golden? Natürlich nicht. Aber vergleichen Sie einfach mal (weil demographisch, kulturell etc. vergleichbar) die BRD und die DDR im Jahr 1989 hinsichtlich Gesundheitsversorgung, Wohlstand und Umweltschutz. Ich habe gerne geholfen.

Klar als Beamter der sich parasitär von hart arbeitenden Arbeitern aushalten lässt, kann man laut tönen.

When people are free to interact & pursue, markets will emerge as the most efficient way to coordinate & align. And capitalism will evolve organically as capital gets accumulated which is reinvested as equity & debt. The truth is capitalism & freedom are 2 sides of the same coin.

Das Problem ist ohne Kapitalismus gibt es keine Innovationen.

It is true, but no truth! As he is an ideologist he just looks at the world he wants to and not from different perspectives. e.g. currently it is socialists and greens forcing the industry-military complex, not the capitalists.

Jesus Christ imagine really thinking this hahaha

Kapitalismus ist ein Kampfbegriff. Alles, was schlecht ist, wird ihm zugeschoben, obwohl er die Lösung wäre. Das Problem ist, dass im Kapitalismus die heutigen Machthaber und von diesen bezahlten Schwätzer und Intellektuellen nicht mehr von der Allgemeinheit leben könnten.

German accent. of course. 😐

Geh nach Nordkorea. Bitte 🤗🤗🤗!!!

Er und Sie adressieren vollkommen falsch. Oder wieso kommt Deutschland mit Rekordsteuereinnahmen nicht klar? Lassen Sie mich raten, noch mehr Steuern/Abgaben, noch mehr Umverteilung, dann würde es plötzlich reichen 🤣

Let me guess: the "solution" you're offering is the well-being economy model where currency no longer exists and "well-being" is measured in social credits and geo-fenced carbon allowances that only the wealthiest can buy more of?

Stupid post. Capitalism does not limit anything. Do you know what capitalism is? Capitalism is simply producing and trading between people and companies and people. It is all voluntary. How can something voluntary limit you? It cannot. Stupid post.

this is bullshit

Commies are just miserable people that want everyone else miserable.

No, why?

Infantile & circular Marxist reasoning.

Dummkopf!!

No argument? Just insults?

If only there was a country that was split down the middle in the 1950’s. One operating under capitalism and one under communism that we could look to 75 years later and see which is better off. If only such a country in East Asia with a DMZ to keep them apart existed.

In seiner Welt ergibt das sogar vielleicht Sinn! Der arme, arme Mann

Unsinn, nehmen Sie mal @elonmusk und fragen sich, ob es ihn im Sozialismus gegeben hätte. ✅ohne Tesla keine Elektromobilität ✅ohne Starlink keine Ukraine mehr ✅ohne Space Ex keine günstigen Satelliten ✅ohne Neuralink kein Fortschritt bei Hirnkrankheiten ✅solarcity?
