Capitalism is a subversion of humanity’s caring impulse into an impersonal transactional activity. It’s not a form of caring, it’s a replacement for it.
This reminds me of a week ago when a new manager in my dept. told me that a score of "3" on my MaxP2 is good because it means that I "bring value to the company."
I know I bring value to the org but I can't afford a house on the wages I'm taking home. I'm valuable? Cool. Pay me like I'm valuable.
Probably a bot.
But if it isn't, this is peak capitalism brainrot
"The system that says money is the most important thing makes people care for esch other"
Get outttttt
Its like the troll culture leaked into mainstream brains who failed to comprehend the tongue-in-cheek aspect of belligerently shitposting to milk the lolcows, thus becoming the lolcow for shitposting in good faith.
Looking out at,... ya know, all of this and having the strongest thought in your head be "This economy just looks like people caring for people to me especially the business owners" is just some galaxy brain stuff.
Ah yes, it’s not like capital is in the root word or anything. Workers are property of the Capitalist, not their empathetic brethren.
Corporations never implemented ADA compliance on their own free will.
“Capitalism is good because it coerces you to lie about your intention of making money. And the byproduct is faux empathy that gets you even MORE customers/money!”
Capitalism is weaponizing fake empathy and CLAIMING to care about others so that they’re off guard and you can more effectively screw them over, fixed that for ya, random screenshot troll!
The kind of belief you can only hold if you never had to maintain 1-2 part time jobs at minimum wage. Two weeks as a cashier or in food service and this one would be quoting Marx.
Hi I'm a potential investor very interested in this business model of not wasting capital on pleasing customers nor paying employees, how can I send you my money??
Jim is explaining 😵💫 why the stock market loves it when companies lay off a third of their staff with plans to lay off another third later. And why the stock market goes up when the number of people unemployed goes up. And why corps give $millions to pols who promise to kill safety regulations
Lol. I work at Amazon! The chairman of the company (Bezos) has rented space in Trump's asscheeks and wants to get rid of the org that gave workers and employers a PEACEFUL way to resolve labor disputes.

“Open a capitalist business”.
Sounds more like aliens in a trench coat trying to pass.
“It’s time to eat human lunch!”
Uh.. well I'll be mogadored.
What is this? Opposite day?
Capitalism is not owning a business because a business might not own the means of production.
Capitalism is investing in a business in order to get return on the investment. Or owning the means of production, in order to profit from workers.
