Is capitalism proceding in an escalating human rights catastrophe the same way it has for hundreds of years?

Why yes, yes it is.

Wrong. ↑ This is propaganda from the radical leftist Biden regime.

The government and businesses made reforms so that capitalism doesn’t do that anymore. Imagine what kind of hellscape this place’d be if they hadn’t changed when they realized how much human suffering and planetary destruction they were about to cause lmao.

Editing to add that this is sarcasm. Can you imagine “radical leftist Biden”? 😂
