Never trust a '...ism' no matter its origin. Needs to collapse before the question can be asked, seriously. :tea:

Was hoping 42 would attempt a defence of US capitalism.

Is is certainly the case that US style consumerism, which is a requirement of their capitalist system and in effect in a symbiotic relationship with it, has been one of the biggest contributors to the trashing of the planet. On that basis alone you have my vote.

What do you mean by US style Capitalism? What do you believe its characteristics are?
“When I was in college, I took a terrorism class. ... The thing that was interesting in the class was every time the professor said ‘Al Qaeda’ his shoulders went up, But you know, it is that you don’t say ‘America’ with an intensity, you don’t say ‘England’ with the intensity. You don’t say ‘the army’ with the intensity,” she continued. “... But you say these names [Al Qaeda] because you want that word to carry weight. You want it to be something.” - Ilhan Omar

But, anyway, my answer is no - for the same reason as in the other thread about Communism being declared a criminal ideologies. I don't believe any ideology should be declared criminal.

Advertisements should be banned...but wouldn't that include the Washington Post, CBC and BBC?
