Marx's Strawman of Capitalism

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 64

Capitalism is a Marxist creation. It sounds crazy to say that, but Marxists don't mean competitive market economies or even free-market economies when they say "capitalism." They mean an overarching ideology of limitless capital accumulation as the fundamental organizing principle of society, which most people who promote "capitalism" wouldn't recognize as what they mean by the term at all. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay shows you in their own words what Marxists mean by the word "capitalism," which is a revealing and ridiculous strawman of market economics. Join him to learn all about it.
