That has not been my experience. Nobody is demanding that of me. Just physical exploitation, from all corners.
Yes, because capitalism does not value you. You aren't a capitalist.
Capitalism doesn't value anything. It is the codification of one of several ways of life we can only understand by observing human beings whose behavior is antithetical to the survival and advancement of our species. It is an evolutionary and ideological dead end, the same as the genetic lineage of any creature born with the compulsion to commit suicide from birth. People can choose to do better so it's not a matter of genocide to do away with it. It's ideocide. All instances of this system of thought must be done away with, and future generations warned about the consequences of ever allowing it to regain a foothold in the noosphere.
I would say it values anything that enables the growth of capital. That can include people. However, I do agree that it is inherently indifferent to human life.
I get where you're coming from but I do feel the need to point out that you're ascribing held values to an ideology. It's not a person, it can't value anything. As an ideology it is valuable to people whose values prioritize self-enablement at all costs.
Interesting point. I think you're right. It's a system, not a sentient being, it can't really have values. Thx for the interesting point.
Always a pleasure when minds meet well uwu
And now you two could consider why Marx called the Capital the Automatic Subject...
Marx was close to the truth on that one, but he failed to grasp the true nature of such entities.
If you just bullied the fuck out of people, maybe you’d be able to pull yourself using their bootstraps
That behavior is encouraged, and the circumstances that give rise to it cultivated, by people who subscribe to that worldview. Because it justifies their choices to throw the many under the bus for the desires (not needs but mere desires) of the few.
It all comes back to exploitation; the rest is just what it takes to sustain it.
