Everything that concerns the production, distribution and allocation of goods and services, yes. Because it's the nature of capitalism that it must paint itself onto everything, commodity everything, continuously expand into new "markets", no matter how depraved. Take it up with the economic system that causes this process, not the people pointing it out.

Neither the meme itself or the article it is referring, mention financial gain as the motivator.

Do you think this hypothetical corpse-breeding industry would somehow not be, you know, an industry? Do you think it would somehow be immune to the all-consuming profit motive that's strangling every other part of life for most of the human race right now? Of course it would be commodified!

Everything

Everything? Like everything?

How can anyone have a discussion if you blanket the world in a single argument.

Edit: There are some questionable (more than that, but trying to be polite) surrogate practices in post-soviet countries such as Ukraine/Georgia.

Where I'm from surrogate for financial gain is illegal, and where I'm currently living surrogacy is banned entirely.

What should prevent something like this from occurring in the first place, is ethics, not capitalism. Sure, I agree that any large enterprise in a capitalist environment would be influenced by capitalist tendencies, but the same decisions could be made in a socialist world. That is what makes me say "its not capitalism", as these decisions could be made for a variety of reasons and in this case it doesn’t look to be financially motivated. It may become financially motivated down the line, but you can't blame the economic system at the time.

Sigh, I knew you were trolling, but tried not to jump to conclusions. Quick look at your profile and I see you are having several simultaneous bad-faith arguments on multiple threads. I feel stupid for falling for it. Will block and move on.

"Bad faith is when someone refutes the dumbass capitlalist premises that have brought us to fascism, anyway I will be running away now, making me the victor."
