anticapitalists
Against private ownership
Anticapitalists are people who oppose capitalism as an economic system.
The term covers a broad spectrum—from socialists and communists to anarchists and others who reject private ownership of productive resources or market-driven economies.
Anticapitalists organized the protest outside the trade summit.
The word functions as both noun and adjective: anticapitalist movements, anticapitalist rhetoric.
