The problem with competition is that someone has to win, and when you lose in Capitalism, the bourgeoisie seek only to save themselves

The boom bust cycle.
Aka "You should expect to be poor every 40 years".

People do remember that the last scene of Dinosaurs was the family freezing to death in environmental collapse, right? Just me?

These videos have been a great help with bringing more people over who would identify themselves with Capitalism by pointing out not only the problems with the system right now but they are historic issues, as exemplified by the text you review

I am super impressed with your production values. I'd love a how to.

This kills it, "The ideological commitment of al mainstream political parties—as well as of opinion formers in the mass media and academia—to the maintenance of self-regulated capitalism remains outwardly unshaken. "

I'm starting "Living In The End Times" by Slavoj Zizek today! Would love to get my favorite YouTube dog in on it! 😍 Keep up the good work!!

Please review "Is Capitalism Obsolete?" by Giacomo Corneo! It is the book that got me into theory of different economic systems.

"Boom and bust" cycles ultimately end up in devastating imerialistic wars.

13:05, I can't understand what the first suggestion actually means?
Also, 7:10, I'm also having a hard time comprehending this point.

Also, what we see is the capitalism that is desparately struggling against its own law of diminishing profits over time. Capitalism would try anything to keep the profits from falling, even reverting to slavery.

[beaverstever]

can you do a video on 'The Russian Counterrevolution', please?

[two_owls]

Is that old Robert Duval in those apocalypse clips?

5:25 what is that reflection in the glass? it kind of looks like a scary doll. spooky

Honestly I don’t think we’re going to get rid of profit motive without abolishing money and we’ve already removed money from day to day life (credit cards, and no real use of paper money) so I don’t think it would be impossible to change (especially in first world countries who can then help support third world countries in the transition)

00:40Is hilarious! I had to back it up and play it for my wife.

[squidcultist]

Neolibreralism and it's consequences have been a disaster for humanity
