      If you break capitalism, all of the people that exist because of capitalism will die. Imagine flipping the world production back to before 1850. There would be Billions that die.

        Again, hopefully these are all jokes.

        Capitalism doesn’t bring us anything; it’s a distribution system. No machines will suddenly disappear if it’s gone, no researchers, developers and engineers will suddenly die, and the world will just keep spinning.
