capitalism ruined the meaning of life by brainwashing people into thinking life has any meaning at all

we are born to live, as is everything on this planet and everything on every other planet, the planets themselves were formed purely to exist, because they have the capability to exist in this universe, no other reason.

Plants do not exist to give us oxygen or food or any resources at all, they exist because theyre meant to, they thrive in earths soil and grow purely because the environment allows it to, a seeds only purpose is to grow, and after that the only purpose is to live. the resources from plants are there to aid nature in its growth, to aid the lives of everything naturally on this earth. the same with animals, and the same can be applied to humans.

generosity is the only thing we need to survive, what one person lacks another has spare, a task one person cannot perform another can. we should all aim to give people as many useful things to them as we can, memories, resources, time.

money is a meaningless concept corrupted by greed and neglectful of compassion.

memories cannot be escaped, the one thing we will have for the (majority) of our lives, memories unite all of us, people, animals, plants. memories have no language, they exist within every sense and exist within the lack of senses. history is a mandatory subject based purely on memories and keeping memories alive. memories have more meaning than money ever will.

a million pounds makes you rich in greed.

a million memories makes you rich in experiences, in knowledge and in life.

we exist to live, and we remember the ones that have lived before us, and we will continue to remember the lives of others because the meaning of life is to live it, remember it and keep those memories alive.

What I haven’t seen anyone speaking about is the new twitter policy (and everything else that musky boy has changed about twitter) is really indicative of how “capitalists” view the concept of the marketplace of ideas.

Despite a lot of flaws with the concept, the “marketplace of ideas” is a concept that everyone gets to shout their opinion, and that the “correct” take will be accepted by everyone because it’s the most popular. (Simplified greatly)

With these changes, you see what insecure man children like elon do when they’re not “winning” the marketplace. Unlike what billionaires and those weird fans think, people don’t like to pay money for previously free things. People also generally don’t enjoy blatant hate speech, or billionaire dick riders be boosted in their dash, or even just every 3am thought elon has show up first on their homepage.

Weirdos like musk genuinely believe in the concept of the marketplace of ideas, but are so up their own ass that they cannot fathom that their shitty ideas are not going to flourish in said marketplace. They’re so deluded in the idea that wealth is indicative of intelligence that they don’t know how stupid they are. When thrust into the marketplace of ideas, a place where they (hypothetically) are equal for the first time, their ideas fail.

So what do capitalists do? They buy twitter. They force their employees to boost their tweets. They ban anyone who dissents. They fundamentally change the marketplace.

Again, the ideology of the marketplace of ideas is not super great, like fascists and people who do not want to be killed by said fascists shouldn’t have equal voices, obviously, but it is a commonly accepted idea in western culture, particularly by capitalists. It’s seen as an extension of the “free market” idea that they like to tout (often in defence of monopolies or price gouging, ie “it’s fine, the free market will have someone undercut them! we don’t need government intervention!”).

But there is something deeply ironic that these capitalists, when given a true “free market” / true “marketplace if ideas” they feel the need to change it so much so they they will always be on top.

Not only does it further reveal how much these people are losers, it reveals how their system is so flawed that they need to cheat at their own system that they prop up. They’re not popular, they’re just losers with money.

Years ago I made a villain

The capitalist pig was sculpted out of air dry clay around November 2018.

He hired a tailor in December after a flight to the coast:

He has lived in a Tupperware for a few years, waiting to defeat some more adventurers. I dug him up tonight and he’s covered in growths of some weird crystal flakes

Naturally, my first reaction was to pull out my 30x magniscope:

The crystals look almost fibrous, and I am extremely excited by the implications for my favorite villain.

Also, here’s some commentary from Mom:

If you sleep in matching pajamas you are a rich capitalist pig and we will eat you.

Being a landlord as a "job" is not a sustainable business model. If they're worried about income during a global crisis, they need a reality check and a healthy dose of accountability that their renters must face every day. Landlords took a risk by betting on being a parasite on the backs of working class families as their retirement plan. If the laborers wages are not secure then their's aren't either. Being a landlord as a business model only motivates them to be unethical in an attempt to increase profit margins. Landlords expect their assets to retain value irrespective of reality and market forces with complete disregard for what is humane. Also, flippers and landlords are essentially gentrifying the neighborhoods they interact with by buying up more homes than they need, many of which are the cheaper fixer-upers or starter homes that young people just starting their families and lives can afford and then creating housing shortages which artificially inflates pricing in the housing market leading to a depressed local economy. More states need to regulate rental properties, institute fair and affordable housing as a human right, and protect working class families and neighborhoods from predatory landlords.
