We are currently experiencing a capitalism crisis.

There too much of it and it's fucking shit up.

Nowadays, a relevant part of the post-war and grandchildren's generation is forcefully advocating the continued existence of precisely this capitalism. They believe that its "value-based liberalism" gives them the moral legitimacy to sweep away competing capitalisms because their competitors are not "liberal" but "authoritarian." As if they were not subject to the same laws of the marketplace. The bottom line is that the "liberality" of the West lies only in the granting of no-cost freedoms, which are valid as long as one premise always remains untouched: submission to the principle of the exploitation of man and nature.
