    Vacous redefinition of the term that vacates it of all it’s explanatory power.

    Definitions aren’t used to explain things on their own. They need to be combined with reasoning to explain anything.

    What’s your definition? Do you have a better one? Ideally one, without any (moral) judgement baked in.

    A definition of capitalism that includes no mention of class or class power is meaningless.

    Again with the motivated reasoning. Also, the class structure can be deduced from the definition without explicitly stating it.

    Not moralist to ask for proof of the imperialist power doing imperialism.

    Now you conflate imperialism with something that needs victims. My definition doesn’t require any definition of victims. You can disagree, but you’d need to supply a definition that is better suited to describe the world.

    You genuinely become more of a parody of the western “anarchist” with every post.

    Insulting me doesn’t make your arguments any more coherent.
