@admitsWrongIfProven my post was not intended as a backhand critique of you!

i guess i do think defenders of capitalism make those arguments in “good faith”, in the sense that they believe them, despite reasoning that may be motivated and contingent on their place in the hierarchies capitalism engenders. motivated reasoning can, usually is i think, nevertheless sincere. the best critics will be able to make those arguments as well as true proponents, and therefore account for them in critiques.
