@Bat, I'm getting pretty sure he's just a troll. Nevermind trying to argue with those

Honestly like I said I'm not knocking you: you speak English far more clearly than I can speak another language. I'm not a grammar Nazi either as my grammar is **** and I often speak in slang. But some of your word use isn't very clear.

Like "what do you think of my executions?" I'm not sure what meaning the word executions is meant to have in that context. Or rather I can guess but it's just a strange use and sounds funny. Just tipping you off bro. Don't get defensive, like I said your English is far better than I can do in another language but you can use some work.

We must critically reflect the inhumane origins of traditional English and support more diversity.

Fairtrade bananas are produced much more ecologically than normal bananas.

And the farmers have certain guarantees concerning their wage.

Is this really so difficult to understand?

Or are you just a cynic who doesn't care about social and ecological progresses. Many Marxists belong to this group of cynics by the way.
I was just offering a bit of friendly advice

All language is derived from cultures that have oppressed people. But the purpose of language is to communicate. Both sides need a shared understanding of terms for it to work

I understand the jist of your point and I responded to it. You think capitalism + liberal democracy and regulation is the end point of history. I think that's an assumption with no basis. Unless you have a particular reason why it can never be replaced, I think we've reached a dead end there.

Then you haven't understood my point.

What is "capitalism"?

Tell me what it is.

You know that I'm German. We are born philosophers, intellectuals and deep thinkers. So we don't simply accept notions but we think about them.

Or to say it in other words: A humanized/regulated "capitalism" isn't a capitalism anymore.

Is it so difficult to understand that Marx was wrong when he claimed that market economy itself is a bad thing? That was the main error of Marx.

You can see how market economies can change and be humanized when you have a look at the last 150 years. This evolution will go on.

But only when you buy fairtrade bananas!

I'm using the common definition which is where the means of production are under private control in a market based economy. If you're using some other definition, let me know. What kind of regulations are you thinking of that would make it no longer capitalism?

Recently, there has been much debate about whether billionaires should exist, an idea popularized by Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. But to former Alphabet executive chairman and investor Eric Schmidt, who is worth more than $17 billion, the idea that extreme wealth is a moral failure is reductive.

"We would probably all be better off spending more time understanding the contributions made by specific individuals and not making generalizations about anyone," Schmidt told Eben Shapiro, the deputy editor of Time, in an interview about his philanthropic initiative, Schmidt Futures, and other topics, published Sunday.
Are bullets to the brain reductive mother****er?
