i think OP is also factoring in the gaslighting of racism into s*** like "they stole our jobs" when really it was the person exploiting someone who'd work for even LESS than the labor u did was valued to make some more money off the margins

that type of s***?

idk this s*** is a mess

Lmao imagine someone looking at their mom with any illness in the eyes, and them telling her “yeah ma you should’ve worked harder to afford better treatment you bum”

im so tired of the needless manipulation like....

critical thinking getting tossed to the wayside then people can go f***ing VIRAL when someone says some common sense s*** that everyone should already be able to know as a functioning adult human being

Yea I think OP is right about everything but I just had a problem with the line "They have created a culture where people who create the backbone of a society (basic laborers) are viewed as lazy and not hard working and lied to the corporate worker telling them that if they keep working harder then they could become a part of the ruling class when really this worker is being exploited so that these corporations make more money"

Classism is intrinsic to human nature

its hard to keep up with all the things people say to s*** on the working class, or nonwhites, or women, or immigrants, or whoever, for what? get votes off mutual hate of people u never met?

s*** crazy and i do think real hate stems from self-hatred,

even hate of the oppressor probably creates self-hate in the fact that you aren't able to get yourself out from under that boot with the ease you ought to no matter how much u fight. that feeling gotta create feelings of the self being inferior even though its bullshit

and thats probably how so many people break. and give up. and give up on change, and try to assimilate into a s***ty system like this

Division and separation based on our profession/race/culture is ingrained into our DNA b. Take a look into the dark abyss of our history, the concept of long term unity is a falsity.

ingrained into our DNA?

im bout to take a look into the dark abyss of your brain cells

i had to

i was just confused u have a AOC avy talking about classism is human nature that didnt seem right but u used to have the photoshopped titty avy too so

I actually do think classism is inherent lol. We’re still very much a tribal species unless we can alter our cognitive DNA. That’s just my current take on the matter.

😭😭😭

until the idiots get over the idea thats its just greed, i guess these threads are pointless lmao. stop criticizing individuals for what the system perpetuates. there is no reforming it either.

i was talking about hella greed and resource hoarding itt oh well

one of the most striking aspects of capitalism is its ability to account for and protect itself against its weaknesses (i.e. how it frames crises as not inevitable and exogenous/a product of unfaithful actors, etc.)

on this issue, going beyond surface level points i.e. racism, religion, difference of opinion over sexuality, gender, etc. acting as a divisive force among the working class even something as simple as competitive hiring practices (which fuels the race to the bottom for wages and offshoring of jobs which also benefit the capitalist mode of production) accelerates this division. the concept of worker vs worker becomes ingratiated among the working class instead of worker against state/worker against owner, etc.

You talking about the gulag archipelago?

thx for the tl;dr

I like how it’s done in Canada capitalism with socialist tendencies

Didn’t you know the borders in ussr were closed because too many refugees from capitalist regimes tried to get in the great socialist country

the future is now old man
