    Okay, I don’t know the logical fallacies by name. I do know when someone isn’t arguing in good faith and being dismissive. I do know when they’re resorting to passive-aggressive personal attacks, too. So, I’m just going to restate my argument that you continue to dismiss, in plain English, not for you, but for anyone else that comes across this.

    Capitalism is a primary contributing factor to global mass extinction that is currently taking place. That’s comparable to a disease. Its competitive advantages are not showing to be beneficial because they’re based on negative externalities. In the long wrong (i.e. right now), those negative externalities are proving to be destructive, rather than beneficial, for almost everyone that lives on this planet. Its advantage is that’s irresponsible. It’s aggressive. Most of the life on this planet is not benefiting from this aggressive behavior. And, there were, and still are, less aggressive options.

    I may not know all my logical fallacies, but I do know economics.

    And you’ve done nothing to change my mind because ultimately you refused to engage with the argument in good faith.
