I personally avoid the Marxist term "capitalist" and prefer more clear verbiage. I enjoy using terms such as "localism" and "free market" to describe my views. You and I will likely agree on what you mean by stating your support of "capitalism," but those who oppose it will fully misunderstand your meaning. In contrast, my stating that I believe power should be held as locally as possible to achieve a goal and that people ought to be free to trade with one another is quite difficult to misunderstand.
