    I’ll never understand statements like these. Capitalism is the #1 reason there’s a profit incentive for any given thing to be horrible.

      I don’t know where you people get this concept. Humans are the issue, not capitalism. There’s literally no functioning system of trade without capitalism. It’s just human nature. We are greedy and we want more than others so that we feel secure in our own future. It’s not fucking rocket scientist, and it’s not fucking capitalism.

      Do you really Envision a world where everyone works equally and gets paid equally and nobody makes extra profit but somehow people are happy? That doesn’t sound like any of the humans I’ve ever known, even the nice ones. You need to be a little bit more realistic and get your childish ass out of the playground.

      We couldn’t even get people to wear masks to not kill each other and you’re over here holding your breath for agapelandia lmao

          the cost of living is a capitalist concept

          No, it isn’t. Lol

          There are fundamental costs to human survival and those costs must be borne out somewhere. Hunter/gatherers also had a cost of living.
