Imagine living in a world where your value as a person isn’t tied to how physically exploitable you are.
Hey now! Under capitalism, your value as a person is tied to how aggressively you exploit others.
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.
Imagine
Luckily for me I get exploited physically and mentally. I strive to one day only be exploited mentally.
Living the dream!
Ah BabylonBee, The Onion for conservatards
No joke, I got dog piled off this site for using that last word you used. We’re so busy purity testing ourselves instead of just attacking the right in an organized fashion.
actual leftists dont argue with leftists. the purity test is a myth created by the far right in an attempt to drive an ideological wedge between leftists, and the fence sitting liberal capitalists. its a self sorting myth that pushes liberal capitalists away from full class conciousness based on percieved petty differences. much like the gondolins and the horse men of rohan prior to the battle of gondor, especially under the influence of grima wormtongue, who whispered untruths and falsehoods in the ear of the bewitched king theodan, in an attempt to keep the kingdoms of men divided. even after his bewitchment, king theodan understood that he needed to put away the ledger of sins from their past with gondor, in order to prevent the fall of man. he struggled with this, but ultimately knew what had to be done when gondor called for aid. everything was at stake.
the leftist understands that its always been up vs down. and that left vs right is a distraction myth. we are like the elves, dwarves, and men of middle earth, even the hobbits. fighting against the darkness of sauron. squabbling over petty differences only serves the dark lords mission of division and permanent victory over man, bringing upon an age of darkness the likes we have never seen before.
we fight for what all that is right and good in this world. for freedom, equality, and truth. anyone who says otherwise is under the influence of forces beyond their current understanding. whether or not they succumb to ignorance is a matter of will and intellect. much like fighting the dark influence of the one ring and saurons will, it is ultimately up to the individual to imagine a world not dictated by greed and the persuit of ultimate power. but rather one where all can live together, in equality, harmony, and peace… in spite of our differences. we as their friends and would be allies also have a duty to guide them when we can, and accept them for their differences, as long as they are willing to fight along side us.
“Never thought I’d die fighting side by side with an Elf.”
“What about side by side with a friend?”
“…Aye… I could do that.”
we all share this world together, and the time of darkness is upon us all. we should remember what our fight is for, and it is not just for ourselves and our own way of life. but the lives of the men and women, and everyone inbetween and beyond. who, like us, simply want to live a full, free, and peaceful life.

What other meaning would they have?
Isn’t Babylon Bee like The Onion?
Let me know when the Babylon Bee acquires InfoWars AND Tim Heidecker in the same week.
I prefer garlic
Guys, they are Communists, not Amish.
Wait, you mean the revolution isn’t just arguing online and designing posters? Devastating news.

That flag doesn’t exist anymore.
If Rhodesia, the Confederate States of America, and the Third Reich can live forever in the hearts of the far right, PizzaKentuckyBell can live forever in mine.
You’re not exactly putting the KenTacoHut in good company there.
Wait, being directly cited as not being akin to the three states I listed is a bad thing?
I couldn’t disagree more.
That’s not what you did. If that’s what you were trying you may want to give it another pass.
Frankly, I very much believe this is a reading issue more than a writing issue, but I do agree the solution is “give it another pass.”
Right now we have a data set of 1/1 that had issues comprehending what I meant. When both sides of that number tick up, we can talk about the data tending towards that it was poorly written.
If santa, the tooth fairy, and khan can all live on in the minds of dreamers, so too can chicken/bell/hut live in our hearts.
What they have written is confident and not comparing the food to the fasciats.
Is this meant to suggest that reactionaries aren’t work-shy as hell? That would be a lie. They all want some bullshit media career as much as any liberal.
Capitalist not funny. News at 11.
Scawy communism
