       “What’s your solution then?” Is one of those lazy rhetorical tricks to discredit any criticism of a complex problem.Like, no, I will not come up with an easy solution to capitalism over a couple of social media posts. But expecting that any anti-capitalist must have a ready-to-use solution to everything they criticize is just a convenient method to shut down that criticism and cement capitalism and “inevitable” or even “natural”, to make even the idea of a different system seem impossible and not worth thinking about.

       @esther and there have already been plenty of people and organizations that have thought about solutions and alternatives, so it's just a question of what *the lazy person* wants to see.

       @vanecx if they were really interested in proposals they could inform themselves. It’s really just a cover for “shut up, what you’re saying is too uncomfortable or threatening to me”
