Isn’t it just “patients”?

Marx’s Das Kapital for beginners

Are you going to tell me “Beowulf For Dummies” is the same text as Bēowulf?

No. I sent you a commentary. I doubt you could handle Das Kapital.

Oohh, you read das Kapital

Where did I say I’ve read Das Kapital? Das Kapital isn’t even the book I linked you.

“perfection is the enemy of progress”, right?

Isn’t there a difference between people starving when there isn’t enough food and having more than enough food you allow to rot so a small percentage of people can live as kings?

You get how that is different, right?

How many people dying while there are resources to prevent their dying is too many?
Are unhoused people an acceptable sacrifice to Mammon in your view?

Why do you assume people arguing (correctly) against the evils of capitalism want to go back to say feudalism and not progress toward a just system that respects universal human dignity and does not require human suffering to grease the wheels of machinery which lines a tiny % of pockets?

Compared to pre industrial humans, we live better than kings, and we work probably more like half less than they had to.

And yet with more than enough food to feed everyone and 30 times as many vacant homes per unhoused person, people still starve and die of exposure on the streets.

it doesn’t make any sense whatsoever.

I could forward you some reading if you’d like to be less ignorant, though I have my doubts you desire to be.

You almost sound like an AI bot, am I talking with an AI bot?

If you can’t tell it sounds like I’ve passed the Turing, at least.

What in the world has capitalism to do with this?

Nothing can be consensual under a system which privatizes the means of life and coerces behavior to attain access to natural resources everyone needs and no one made.

MAID can’t be consensual under capitalism, but all beings which exist have an inherent right to end their own existence whenever they decide to.

This wouldn’t be a discussion if a 27 year old shot themself, huffed an asphyxiant, or jumped off something high.

If I punched you in the dick, would you say, “At least you didn’t kick me in the dick (with shoes!)”?

What good is legally “owning” a game if you can never sell it, and what good is games never breaking if you can’t buy and run them from a yard sale for a quarter?
