My favorite is “we haven’t had REAL capitalism for x years, it’s all crony corporatism now”. I actually got one of those comments this very week. LOL. Tell me you know absolutely NOTHING about anything in one sentence, plz.
The only thing that means is that the person is a Keynesian liberal or a straight up fascist who thinks that the companies are woke now

Paraphrasing but Barry’s economics basically argues:
THIS ISN’T CAPITALISM IT IS SOMETHING ADAM SMITH WARNED AGAINST AND WE DON’T EVEN UNDERSTAND IT ENOUGH TO GIVE IT A NAME YET. - It’s so infuriating someone can see the world in such a delusional and idiotic way and then spread that slop online to minimal criticism.
