Ruffalo, who has in the past showed up to rallies to speak about his anti-fracking stance and campaigns for Bernie Sanders, pointed to the article to back up his statements. 

In the piece, writer Anand Giridharadas, credits Sanders and Elizabeth Warren for calling out capitalism and presenting ways in which the US could actually remove it from the economy.   

Last month, Ruffalo, who has been and outspoken critic about America’s economy, spoke about his views of the Democratic presidential candidates during an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

Colbert asked Ruffalo which candidate he liked, to which the actor responded: ‘First of all I want to preface this by saying I’m very excited by the Democratic brand altogether.

‘The rest of the United States is just finally caught up to what this cat’s been doing already for his entire career. And you know that when he gets into office, he is going to be fighting for us.’
