In modern capitalism, a business that merely brings in a steady profit is considered a failure, success is defined by continual unchecked growth.
In biology, we have a word for continual unchecked growth: cancer.

Adam Tex Davis:
If you've ever played, or seen, a video game like GRAND THEFT AUTO, you know the game world is populated w/ random, nameless, faceless people who exist just to get run over, or beaten or shot or killed for fun. They mean nothing to anyone playing the game.
That's how billionaires think about us.

The idea that vengeance against
evil makes you just as bad as the
evil you're taking up arms against
feels very much like something
the bad guys would make up and
spread across popular culture to
make sure we don't shove their
head in a guillotine, just saying.

Losing a job in the US is not just about an interruption of a career or sudden loss of income. Losing a job in the US often means losing access to healthcare, medicines, ongoing care, disability insurance etc that should never have been tied to employment in the first place

Savvy? :

The worst capitalist brainwash is being proud of your own exploitation Saying you've worked 80 hour weeks since you turned 17 isnt a flex, it's sad

Spooky Trans Mischief:

Somewhere along the way, companies convinced the population that a job was a favor to them and workers were beholden bc of it.
No.
A job is you selling them your time and effort. If they can't afford it or won't pay what you need, they can fuck off.
Cultivate that attitude

Attacking the rich is not envy, it is self defence. The hoarding of wealth is the cause of poverty. The rich aren't just indifferent to poverty: they create it

and maintain it.

Dana Donnelly:

capitalism is like "ok hear me out. what if instead of living in a nice safe world where everyone's basic needs are met, we live in a bad dangerous world where most people can barely feed themselves but two people have like 500 yachts”

"Nobody wants to work anymore" is capitalism for "it's getting harder to exploit the poors."

Jocelyn J. Fitzgerald, MD:

In med school, I took an elective called "Stress", foolishly thinking I was going to learn about meditation and yoga. Instead the professor spent 6 weeks proving that being poor or a minority literally destroys your health on a molecular level, and I think about that every day.

jacobin.comFood Retailers Are Still Lying About Inflation and ProfitsAmerican consumers are paying more and more at both grocery stores and fast-food chains. These retailers are disingenuously blaming the price hikes on inflation while they put their massive profits toward stock buybacks and fat dividends.

Resist #exploitation.

If you call off sick you are not leaving your co-workers short-handed.

Your boss did that.

They refused to hire enough employees.

Didn't make plans to cover sick workers' shifts.

Didn't include your human needs in their calculations.

It's not your fault. You deserve sick days.

Capitalism is a uniquely innovative economic and political system because it takes the worst traits of humanity and reflects them back on us as virtues. Sociopathic behavior is rewarded. Empathy is punished.
