My point is that capital has successfully fought to put lead into American's blood and lungs for over 100 years.
So in other words you are unwilling to answer the question.
Got it.
This is precisely why I say that you aren't intellectually serious people.
You have one question in your previous comment on the very first line, and it was answered.
Your statement on the 2nd line doesn't really make sense, as I don't think anyone blames people for unforseen negative health effects.
What people are upset about are the forseen, proven, endemic negative health effects being purposefully spread for over a century.
What a crock of shit!
Why would capital willingly poison its workforce as a deliberate policy? That makes zero sense.
I can see capital writing it off as a necessary side-cost of doing business, but I can't see it as a deliberate policy.
Again, it makes no sense. Capital wants a relatively healthy workforce, not one that's falling apart due to lead-caused neurological decrepitude.
Name a better duo then tankies and whatsboutism
Fascism and western capitalists.
I like how tankies conveniently forget that Marxism is just as authoritarian, just as evil, just as violent, and just as failed (in both theory and practice) as fascism. Actually, Marxism has a greater death toll than fascism. It is the ideology of scum. Tankies and neo nazis are the same level of insufferable trash.
Are you a bot? You're firing off AM radio talking points at a pretty rapid clip.
Anybody who says 'just as bad' in reference to this conversation is just brainwashed.
Truth hurts, cope
