It has absolutely nothing to do with capitalism. Capitalism is not wildcard word for “stuff I sorta don’t like.” If anything, deportations and crypto are the opposite of capitalism. They aren’t, but the statement is just as true as yours.
A fired HHS worker asks a senator about layoffs that are hurting services for “people with disabilities” and asks what he’ll do to help them.
Once the senator is safely behind his staff in the elevator, he ignores the suffering & replies that the worker is a “clown” who “deserved” to be fired.
If you’re talking about “Capitalism” as post-17th century or even more post 19th century financial corporate capitalism, then crypto seems to fit. Private currencies competing with each other with values determined solely in the market with no government intervention? Seems like capitalism.
AI is just technology and, you’re right, that’s not necessarily the result of capitalism and of course it developed with lots of government/socialist help like most technology.
Deportations? If they were capitalism, I reckon they’d be calling them evictions.
I’m sorry if this has been posted elsewhere and I have no idea how this escaped me for a whole day, but, enjoy the plot twist…
MTG’s ex? Seriously?

We need more of this. Kids interviewing their parents and at least getting them to put their incoherent nonsensical thoughts down for the world to see.
Absolutely right that this is now the mainstream “republican” ideology and isn’t just some crazy weirdo. I mean, he’s a crazy weirdo, but he’s got like 70 million buddies.
He is the Greene of Marjorie Taylor Greene.
When the Dems get the White House back, they should put a tariff on ignorance and hate
We have to work with the delusional homicidal maniacs.
this guy’s been stalking/harassing me for almost 20 years. i usually just send this kind of thing to his employer or local pd because of stalking, but have fun. I’m done with it. he has a bunch of pedo profiles on tiktok/snapchat and is into young boys. periodically stops by my house, has his friends do so, and I used to work with him. inquire within.

I used to like him a long ass time ago, he had some reasonable takes but then sometime several years ago he went completely on the jeebus wagon and got insanely weird
I’ll be damned, The Onion wrote this 2 years ago
Yeah he was always weird but least made a few populist left leaning statements. He turned MAGA when it started to become known that he was at least predator adjacent. Shockedpikachu.jpg.
he did the thing where he went MAGA so he could say that he was being persecuted for political reasons
He’s a pedophile who has been stalking you for 20 years? Christ, you must have great skin or something.
where does this creep work?
Does Brand have the $5 million to beat the charges?

This thread does a great job of explaining why nailing them on their hypocrisy is such a fruitless endeavor.
