Racism isn't incompatible with libertarianism. Even egalitarians can believe some races are superior to others.

Violently taking away the liberty of others (regardless of racial motivation) is anti-libertarian.

You can't have capitalism without racism - Malcom X

Wow, I didn't know Malcolm X was straight-up economically illiterate. I guess that's yet another thing left out of American textbooks.

You do know economics isn't a science right? Neither is math. It's a tool created by capitalists to justify and rationalize exploitation.

Now I know anything I say won't convince you otherwise but know this... Just because a person doesn't like capitalism does not mean they are fucking illiterate. Dr. Richard Wolff teaches at fucking Yale is a Marxist. Open minds are a great thing.

God...

I don't even support capitalism. I'm against absentee ownership.

I've read some of Wolff's work and watched some lectures from him online. He often lazily blames capitalism for everything, but he at least understands economics.

Capitalism is the private ownership of the means of production. Malcolm X is saying this, a mere system of property, cannot exist without racism. So if you were to eliminate all racial motivation (hell, even eliminate all racial distinctions between humans), capitalism would still cause racism? This demonstrates he's economically illiterate, independent of his conclusions. There is no definition of capitalism that supports his quote.

The Nobel prize winner in economics said it himself. It's not a science.

Dr. Richard Wolff does not blame everything on capitalism.

This is where your understanding of capitalism gets weak. Capitalism is hierarchy/social dwarwinism. You can't keep that and remove racism. They are not exclusive from each other. In fact, they go together like pb and j. The private property issue has been discussed on r/debatecommunism extensively.

He's not a Libertarian. He's some racist neoreactionary from /r/antiPOZi.

Here's him responding to one of my comments a few days ago.

He is correct, I am not a libertarian and don't claim to be. Though I was a libertarian for about 15 years until I woke up to the race issue and many other dubious claims that libertarians make, like free trade prevents wars, protectionism caused the Great Depression or open immigration always benefits a society.

I'm openly racist in that I believe that different races of people evolved very differently and that explains the inequality around the world, not the amount of freedom.

Uhh that was calling people out for not factually quoting. And wow you looked pretty far back for that eh?

How was that comment racist? Because he quoted Denzel Washington?

So my political philosophy (which espouses that all people are equal under law) is discredited all of a sudden because of a few bigots? If I understand your point correctly, you're just being incredibly childish.

Found another racist. You come to defend a racist and fail to understand there is no equality under a hierarchy. Fail fail fail. Your ideology breeds racism.

A few bigots? They are all over! Hell Rand Paul used to have nazis working for him.
