Gen Z embraces 'safety capitalism', says current social safety net is broken
Gen Zers are embracing "safety capitalism" because they think the current social safety net is insufficient.

The lack of safety net is a feature of late-stage capitalism, not a flaw.
It was also a feature of early stage capitalism. But instead of analysing features, it's better to orginize and fight for political change
Exactly, but my point is their view isn't big enough, it's the entire system that facilitates this to be the case. We need political change on a foundational level, like getting rid of 2 senators per state and the electoral college.
I agree with you in principle, but honestly, if we can get countries like the U.S. in the same position as Scandinavia in terms of a social safety net, that would be such a vast improvement over the status quo and it would be far easier to achieve.
Yep, I don't understand this. Do people really think the euro countries aren't built upon capitalism?
