Greed as in people that abondon all morals for material and money.

If someone is both they will continue to live with only one of those.

Just curious what leftists target more.

    Both religious extremism and greed are superstructural, not the base. Leftists target the base, as the superstructure is shaped by the base and in turn reinforces the base. Move onto socialism and communism, and the oppressive superstructural elements of today will also fade.

      Some folks might be on some prosperity gospel bullshit, but I don’t think Elon, Zuck, et. al. believe in a power above themselces.

    Greed 100%. Religious extremism only hurts a minority. The people trapped in the cults, the family members of the 50’s dad hitting them with the bible, victims of crusade/jihad style atrocities etc.

    Which is awful but manageable.

    Greed is definitely, definitely definitely going to end our entire species, probably only a couple generations away.

    Greed.

    Religuous extremism is already on its way down and unlikely to ever go up again.
