    Capitalism has always technically been viable, in the same way benevolent monarchies/autocracies are viable. They don’t generally occur, or last when they do occur on a fluke. That’s always been the problem with them. And why power should be diluted/subject to consent.

      “Viable, but not desirable” is how I generally think of it. Or, at least, as viable as any other system literally invented before fucking sociology.

      We have better options now. It’s just on us to discover them by mass implementation.

        Nope, heavy concentration of power with plenty abuse. But to tankies the fact that they will imprison and kill the petit bourgeoisie that cross the party. Makes the petit bourgeoisie still existing somehow okay.
