Any books that explain how capitalism allows $300 cardboard fruit

something by Baudrillard maybe?

Bitch, I can tell you right now.
The trick is to convince the upper middle class that poor people don't have it. They're like dogs. They eat that shit off the floor.

Explain your conception of a fully socialist society.

Funny how you outright say it's not socialism.
What you're talking about is Authoritarians lying to install Authoritarianism.
Authoritarianism is NOT socialism.
Christ on a cracker, guys, god damn. Crack a fuckin book, Go outside. Pay attention to shit once in a while, stop letting radio hosts pour bullshit directly into your skull.

fuck off commie

You don't need a book, one of the core tenets of capitalism is that people are free to set their own prices.

capitalism is a spook, government is a spook, state is a spook, NAP is a spook. You are a child crying about ghosts in your closet

You don't understand Stirner lol

It's basically a free lottery ticket. If no one buys end of story then your net loss is whatever time it took to make one and take a picture of it. If some idiot does happen to buy it you get $300 profit. If no one buys it, but it goes viral you get free advertising and maybe people come to you website and read your mission statement and like it and buy your cardboard key fob for $10 instead.

>hurr fucking capitalism!
yeah i remember when i was in high school too

>>9939295
you are a spook

>implying post modernism is not responsible for that "art"

>>9939340
Man, I like capitalism more compared to the alternatives, but we have to admit that the market failures are setting us back. We produce garbage we don't need and have a marketing industry to create those unwanted wants. Then we have overpriced goods. Hilarious investments such as modern art. It doesn't affect me directly, since I'm not much of a consumerist, but it affects me indirectly, since it shapes society and society shaped and shapes me in certain subtle ways. I wish planned markets would work, but I now they can't.

I consider fidget spinners unethical, malicious products that waste resources and occupy the valuable time of eaters.

Grow past the idea of markets. Markets are not necessary to human life. Markets are an ideology like any other, and we can create something better than that.

didnt read but your gay

is this the perfect bourgeois statement?

>I wish planned markets would work, but I now they can't.
Well of course they can't, planning and the market are antithetical.

>capitalism is a spook, government is a spook, state is a spook, NAP is a spook. You are a child crying about ghosts in your closet

but is the ego a spook?

>>9939562
no, there's better arguments for capitalism than that pure ideology

>>9939520
