    If I were @WoodScientist@lemmy.world , I would be very disheartened from receiving such a thoughtless and dismissive response after so much good faith effort was put into their response to you.

    To laugh at that effort and mock its effort as an essay is just… Wow.

    Your definition of capitalism is very narrow, and you don’t seem to believe there is a difference between markets and capitalism. If I may ask, do you see any difference between a world of standard corporations compared to a world of worker owned cooperatives that continue to operate in a market, or do both scenarios fall under capitalism?

      Good faith doesn’t write an essay telling you that you’re wrong and words don’t mean their literal definition. Spite does.

      My definition was actually very broad, which the other user took offense to and tried to add on a bunch of nonsensical requirements to capitalism like deregulation or oligarchy.
