Dale Eastman wow, that use of Latin... So smart. I know you expect me to google it, but I don't want to. Also, the cursive doesn't help your cause, because it's difficult to read, and I avoid difficulties.

Dale Eastman we're obviously not comprehending each other. I support free markets, property rights, and voluntary exchange. Capitalism is observably not those things though many claim it so. As an anarchist, I'm not one of them. From my perspective it's a masonic black lie that even I missed seeing for too long. Maybe it was insider trading Nancy Pelosi lecturing a university socialist on this country being capitalist that finally opened the door of recognition but my studies of the origins of the concept and how it's used made it clear its not what I want to adhere to, identify with, or live in, except only compared to every other form of vertical hierarchical collectivism.

Gentlemen,
I had a slight suspicion that you were both ANTCAPS from your first posts in this thread.
There are other labels that could be applied. I don't like those other labels because they are NOT precise as applicable definitions, so I reject them. In making up my own label, I simply have joined anti and capitalism for a singularly, precisely aimed definition.
I point out a second time, I have spent YEARS attempting to understand what ANTCAPS believe and why.
Neither of you have presented a cogent definition of CAPITALISM. Thus, neither of you have evinced an intent of proving your ANTCAP position.
ST: ➽ Dale Eastman wow, that use of Latin... So smart.
How does this sarcastic disrespect further your presentment that being an ANTCAP is correct? How is this to sway folks to your position?
ST: ➽ I know you expect me to google it, but I don't want to.
{SHRUG} Remaining an ignoranus (sic) is YOUR CHOICE. I'm big on free-will.
ST: ➽ Also, the cursive doesn't help your cause, because it's difficult to read,
Noted. I'll change my style to remove an excuse you are using to NOT engage in a meaningful discussion of the details surrounding CAPITALISM.
Nasty opine self-censored.
Speaking of not helping one's cause... Where's YOUR precise definition of CAPITALISM?
ST: ➽ and I avoid difficulties.
You're lazy. Got it. I'll do my best to write at a 3rd grade level.
BM: ➽ Dale Eastman we're obviously not comprehending each other.
That is a 100 % correct statement. In other words: Yep. I agree.
BM: ➽ I support free markets, property rights, and voluntary exchange.
For the moment I am going to assume those three points mean the same to both of us.
BM: ➽ Capitalism is observably not those things though many claim it so.
That is not a hard edged definition of CAPITALISM... Hence our failure to communicate.
BM: ➽ As an anarchist, I'm not one of them.
I am forced to assume you meant you are not one of those that think CAPITALISM is free markets, property rights, voluntary exchange.
I acknowledge you have presented three things that CAPITALISM is NOT per your thinking. You have still not presented what, specifically, YOU mean when YOU use the word CAPITALISM.
BM: ➽ From my perspective it's a masonic black lie that even I missed seeing for too long.
Red herring. Value= 0.0
BM: ➽ except only compared to every other form of vertical hierarchical collectivism.
Second inquiry: What is collectivism?
