    You know, killing the idea of a comfortable life is a pointless idea. Would you give up a delicious cake and tea just to raise the workers’ wages? There is no way to defeat capitalism while people are still alive this is my opinion.

      Incorrect. Capitalism is failing in front of your eyes, you’re just not educated enough to know what it looks like.

        Well, I completely agree that I’m not educated enough, you know, I’m not a particularly smart person. But madness, you know… It’s getting to the last now, fat freaks are trying to maintain their fragile power to the last. They think they’ll sit there and when the carnage is over they’ll come out and try to play at civilization again… We live in a crazy world, you know, these freaks might even succeed. I think you now think I’m crazy, but who do you think is normal in such a world?

          It’s called fascism. It’s not some unknown deep sea creature, it’s human nature’s bad side. That said, we have no perfect economic system and capitalism sure isn’t it. Seeing the fallout now

      People are able to tighten up the belt if they believe in the cause. And you can even rewind the clock on the capitalist system to see that people were contributing more and taking less for themselves.

      Erosion of social structure was helped a LOT by targeted propaganda. Some of which is influencing your own thought process.

      Think about it.

        I think you’re right. Honestly, I doubt everything all the time. The propaganda that AI is still better, like adapt, peasants, has a particularly good effect on people. And then the thought struck me: what if we adapt in our own way?
