It’s not the economic system that’s led to these improvements but new methods and technology. People invented stuff before capitalism. The compounding effect of technological advancement makes idiots think that the economic system used recently is obviously the cause of the increasing pace of advancement but that’s strictly correlation not causation.

even globalism has a lot more to do with technology than any dumb ideology of economics

Having a little fun with their rhetoric was completely out of sync with the preceding paragraph, leaving the door open to regarding cops as potential allies or otherwise neutral. There's loving cops in the DSA so I'm not going to make assumptions about people being on my side when they're code switching while critiquing.
maybe people dont want adjust their language on an internet comedy forum for the lowest common denominator

people dont like to point out the obvious because unfortunately doing so makes them look dumb

I guess what they want to do is shift the legal blame to the security company they pay to secure the place so they themselves don't have to pay anything.

That cold blooded externalization of costs is capitalist as hell. "Hmmmmm, over 50 people died and hundreds were injured when somebody shot a gently caress load of bullets out of our hotel. How do we avoid incurring any damages? That's the important thing here, obviously."

this is embarrassing. get the gently caress out
