Since it’s #mlkjr day in the US, I figured I’d share this apt quote about #socialism.

@moz @draft13 Says nothing about socialism.

@iain @draft13 ah but it does. It criticizes capitalism, which is good socialist praxis

@moz @iain I am ok with agreeing to disagree; yet political views aside, I fully agree that the wealth our country exists in large part to the exploitation of slaves and minorities. That truth is hard to refute.

@draft13 I agree with that. There's no excuse for slavery and it has nothing to do with capitalism directly.

@iain Nothing? 🤔

@draft13 No. Slavery is about bestial greed.

@iain Indeed. I would add that greed and capitalism are pretty good friends.
