Apple is selling far more powerful iPads for the same price and the only difference is the keyboard+touchpad. The cheap Neo doesn't even come with touch ID.
you’d be very serious to credit capitalism for it…
There is a difference between the claim that the workers aren't pro capitalism when they make a good payout, alleging that I'm referring to the workers as capitalists, and me allegedly crediting capitalism itself.
I don’t know what point you’re making.
Yes, it is obvious that there is a group of people here deeply entrenched in the anglo-centristic world view of a 14 y/o kid who cannot fathom the concept of the average South Koran having a different view of capitalism than them, in light of South Korans having North Korea right across the border.
You aren’t a capitalist if you’re paid well under capitalism, your labor is still being taking advantage of so the capitalist can buy a new summer mansion, you could still be fired for no reason, and you’re still one injury or automation or bad economic quarter away from being laid off.
And yet these workers seek to get wealthy off capitalism, even though they are not the capitalists themselves. SK Hynix workers are not capitalists either but payouts of $460,000-$477,000 per worker is not working class wage either.
Being pro capitalism when you don’t own capital is a result of a lifelong of propaganda and no understanding what capitalism is.
You mean like South Korea where their poster child of anti-capitalism is North Korea, right across the border?
And I also literally said "directly benefiting". Nice selective quoting you did there. "In general people are in favor of the things that directly benefit them"
So if people are directly benefiting from capitalism, these people are in favor of it. Not really a super hard concept to grasp, yet you keep struggling with that simple sentence.
I'm voluntarily paying for my LW account but the admins don't know whose money transfer belongs to which account.
