It was filled with normies/Marxists by the time the person you're replying to was finally old enough to use the internet. The LINOs have certainly been pushed to the side in favor of pushing unoffending liberal content to the masses. Regardless, it's still a large LINO stronghold, since internet "Libertarians" desperately need validation and don't want to be on social media any longer than it requires to make a couple posts shilling their current favorite "revolutionary" crypto coins.
>corporations and banks are heckin evil
Why would you argue the opposite?
The problem of Grapes of Wrath is that it's just a god damn chore to get through. Maybe if you're American you have +1 or +2 on a dice roll whether to continue reading or not but everyone else will close the book.
You're actually retarded if you don't understand why that and being kicked out of their home might make them the antagonist.
You're a true specimine of absolutely peak levels of autism, completely incapable of empathizing with people.
>displaces hundreds of people for the sake of profits >wait you guys can't organize behind a dictator and take my shit, muh heckin Non Aggression Principle

>Still thinking it's a moral issue
It's not about the free market being bad or good, retard.
The homeless family isn't thinking about "wowee, that's a good business decision they made. I completely understand and think they did the smart thing."
The homeless family is now thrust into further struggle, so of course they're upset.
It's not even remotely about moral judgements and is entirely focused on their perspective.
How dense can you possibly be to not grasp such simple concepts?
Here, I'll explain something similar to it for your 13 year old Marvel brain: >Anti-heros do good-ish things but in a bad way >They rationalize this through fucked up thinking, usually due to fucked up experiences >You can empathize with why they think that way, while not agreeing with them
Having a warped image of reality is a normal and human thing to do.
It's especially normal for people who experience trauma or difficult times to attribute their suffering to an "enemy."
If you can't get it through your thick skull why the family attributes part of their hardship to the straw that broke the camel's back as a fundamental concept of human nature and story structure without chimping out and thinking its a personal attack on capitalism, I don't think you belong on the LULZ board since you're never going to get passed middle school comprehension.
Maybe Young Adult novels are more your speed? I will warn you, sometimes capitalism actually is the real enemy in those, but maybe if they call it "fantasy" you won't get upset when a character takes issue with a perceived "injustice" that is done to them.

Steinbeck was another boomer freak obsessed with incest, prostitutes, and shame. At least he didn't fetishize interracial and castration like Faulkner and Hemingway
Someone's mad 8th grade American lit isn't always a fun romp.
Don't read classic realist Americana if you don't want to. The only reason someone would be upset at the book is if it's mandated by a class and you're just a whiny bitch because it's not as stimulating as a 2hr CGI-laden Marvel film.
Go read Atlas Shrugged if you want to stroke your dick over capitalism, then go to reddit since you've got the critical thinking capacity and thirst for in-group tribalism as the retards you're pretending are beneath you. You'll fit in with the other children that think sites are your personal hivemind hugboxes.
Agreeing with a point is irrelevant. You don't have to like sentiments to understand the narrative structure. If something is portrayed as "The Bad Thing/Group," you are incapable of seeing when it's the perception of the character for narrative purposes and when it's shoehorned in, you're unable to understand the historical context in which it was written, and you're completely unable to rationalize why someone might think that, then you're just an immature child.
Go back to doomscrolling 15s brainrotting clips to be spoonfed more incredible takes like "if thing doesn't align with your beliefs, thing is bad and should be dismissed."
Why did you make this thread, OP? Are you some 16-year-old twat looking for an excuse not to do your assignment for English class?

Blood Meridian
Pure and concentrated reddit
GTFO my board pedos

>not absolute peak fucking reddit
>Literally the most reddit LULZ book
Go on anon make the 28888261729th Blood Meridan thread asking about what exactly he is the judge of...

Redditors hate Ayn Rand though
Bullshit. Reddit has the biggest presence of Randian pseuds on the entire internet.
I honestly doubt that considering that r*ddit also have the biggest population of marxists pseuds aswell. It would be a contradiction.

This isn’t TikTok, you don’t have to censor the scary words here
The history of the Chicago fire department in the 19th century

Anons who use this term often are unironically from the no-no bad website
yeah that book fucking sucked

Explain what it is that big banks do that makes them evil.
Are you slow? If the book claims "banks are heckin evil" why don't you just read it?
Better yet, describe how they're characterized as evil in the book and tell us how they totally didn't do any of that stuff.
What’s evil in replacing a hundred redneck hicks with a single tractor that can do the same work for a tenth of the price?

I've never seen a websites community so obsessed with another. I doubt even reddit mentions reddit this much.
complaining about reddit is extremely reddit
can you explain the obsession?
>> Bro corporations and banks are heckin evil, OK?!?!
Uh, yeah?
The funniest part is that he thinks he’s an edgy right winger while he’s defending banks.
