Well, I guess we may get a surge of anticapitalist users soon.

I mean, they'd be coming to the right place.

I'd say so to some extent, but some users are so anti-capitalist it's actually a problem

This is literally the anti-Capitalist reddit. It was made precisely to answer Reddit with better, decentralized structure so as to avoid the problems Reddit has.

Is being radical itself bad? If the only solution for a given problem is drastic, immediate change, such as Climate Change requiring a major Overhaul of infrastructure, agriculture, and consumption as quickly as physically possible, is this solution bad simply because it's radical?

Personally, I think worker ownership is a necessary solution to the constant deterioration of Capitalism. I am, therefore, a radical. I don't believe Capitalism can be salvaged, only band-aids applied as temporary measures. What's wrong with this POV?

That's just like, your opinion, man.
