This is quite the leap.

Based on her responses, absolutely believes it.
Its not her first rodeo trying to push capitalism as the prime reason for societal dysfunction.

Exactly. Just looking for other perspectives.

We were discussing marginalized people and whether or not society treats them with dignity.
Who did you all determine was marginalized?

Shockingly, my focus is on incarcerated and formerly incarcerated people.

Capitalism treats humans as a means to an end (profit), so can any human be dignified when they are essentially dehumanized by our economic system?
You have to be pretty uneducated to state something like this with decades of Communism and failed Socialist governments in the historical context.

Capitalism isnt an entity, its an absurd question. Its a collection of economic decisions from every individual.
Ironically, communism is far closer to an entity as you are subject to the economic decisions of a select few...and nobody is ever dehumanized as much as in a communist country.

Is there something unique about how a "capitalist society" treats such individuals? It seems to me sort an odd thing to tie to that.

He has an impressive resume.
In capitalist terms, consumers are free to determine worth.
How does that translate in terms of his resume?
It's virtually assured the man feels Capitalism undervalues his CV.
It's virtually assured the man feels undignified as his perceived value wanes by comparison to others (e.g., women) to whom he sees himself as superior.

Inmates are used as cheap/free labor.

So criminals.... people who break the law. Your focus is on people who cannot exist within the boundaries set forth by the society in which they live because they simply choose not to.

They should be, part of how they pay their debts to society.

It's called "earning your keep".

Seems that has happened pretty much everywhere throughout history.
I'm not sure it's a function at all of "capitalist society." You believe it is?

The whole point of the idiotic thread was a new and exciting angle for her drivel concerning jailed people. that's all.
