But.

I will consider engaging in this farce if he can demonstrate he's actually got capital. Possesses the means of production in some sense, even if only as a member of the petit bourgeoisie. (Like me, technically.)

I justifiably have to pretty regularly prove my leftist bonafides as a business owner and employer. I view this as no less sensible. You're an Ancap? Are you?

Do you own a business? Do you possess capital? Because if you don't, being an Ancap doesn't make you a future John Galt. It makes you a willing commodity. Labor is something people with capital typically dial up and down like a knob. You're simply agreeing to be fine when it turns down on you when you're an Ancap laborer.

A) Your own means of production

B) Wealth

So, we've established you don't know the definition of capital, and probably anarchy as well, so now we know why you can't "deconstruct" anything.

A) A satire account. In which case you have picked an ideology it is impossible to parody. They're all just kinda like this.

B) Ignorant of what you speak.

Here, guy. Read. Learn. Grow.

Your Tumblr is full of sad tales of woe caused or exacerbated by capitalism and you keep coming to heel like a kicked dog. Come on, dude. Wake up and smell your own exploitation and get mad at the right people.

Capitalism props up its host government and seeks to control it with wealth. Why do you not accept this fact? It's, again, protected by law here in the US. Money is speech, remember?

State involvement violates the very concept of a free market.

Thank you for illustrating you don't understand the "no true Scotsman" fallacy. And also, again, that you neither understand the definitions of "capitalism" nor "capitalist."

Some rich donors and numerous corporations financially supporting a guy who is on the record about coming for entitlement programs and criminalizing homelessness. He even praised Jordan Neely, the guy who killed a homeless man on the subway. The guy's an anti-woman, anti-gay, anti-trans, anti-immigrant, anti-poor, far right ideologue. By his own admission and description.

While it's true they'll all likely cut bait as his campaign continues to flame out, none of the above stopped them from donating to it in the first place.

Once you have all the money you need, you start buying power. It's not really ... a controversial concept, I shouldn't think. People can, do, and will pour fortunes out in pursuit of power. The US has some unfortunate Supreme Court rulings enshrining that right as protected speech, even.

Neoliberalism is a system designed to convert power into money and vice versa in as efficient a means as practical. Capitalism's role in that is efficiently turning money into power. It's the government that allows the power to become money again. That's what regulation is supposed to curtail. There ought to be guard rails preventing self-dealing and conflicts of interest. Absent them, power and capital tend to concentrate in a manner history tells us doesn't end well for the societies involved.

The actors, through their union, have made demands for their new contract. That's... part of the negotiation process with a union. They're not suggestions or requests or "please sir may we have a crumb."

Pay better attention and don't condescend to people who actually know what they're talking about! Here are some links so that you can educate yourself and stop actively showing your ass in public.

Among SAG-AFTRA’s demands are increased minimum pay rates, increased streaming residuals (neither of which have kept up with inflation), and improved working conditions.

As the SAG-AFTRA strike continues, the union has released its list of demands alongside the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers’ responses.

https://www.sagaftrastrike.org/post/contracts-expire-without-a-deal

The actors are striking over the terms of their own contract, not simply in solidarity with the writers. You are wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, and need to stop saying incorrect things about something that directly affects the livelihoods of others.

I've had a shit day and I'm not in the mood to be incorrectly lectured over something that directly affects friends and family, so maybe next time literally just Google "SAG-AFTRA strike" or "SAG-AFTRA demands" before burping up harmfully incorrect bullshit.

Hope this helps. :)
