Other than the Capitalist obsession with everyone having their own personalized box

effective public transit requires people to share omg can't have that

This to an extent. I'm not exactly phobic about driving, but I suck at it and have below par situational awareness. If there was reliable public transit around here I'd use it in a heartbeat. Instead what we have are a few ****ty buses that may or may not show up on time.

Capitalism will drive this planet to extinction

It is the beast that eats itself

Also this to an extent. In a world without climate change capitalism is just morally dubious, but in the real world it may end up leading to our extinction. If humanity can evolve culturally to an extent that destructive greed can be curbed to an "acceptable" extent then great, but if we're all dead by then then all of capitalism's pros amount to a pile of ****.

That's a humanity thing, not a capitalism thing.
We're ****ed no matter what silly ideology we choose to follow.
I'm for voluntary human extinction. And not because of the environment or something. **** the environment.

But that's a strawman though. As far as I know elphie never said that. And when you add a passive aggressive "lol" to your posts like that it just makes you look like a numbnut.

Define private property?

I don't think a system is evil. Plain and simple. I think people are evil and that's it. I personally feel communism is a terrible system that would never work. but I'd never call it the root of all evil.
