    Could be mass apathy due to the capitalist oligarchies we live in…

    I know I sure as hell would be doing a whole lot more in my day to day life if I actually believed it would make a difference and the rest of society were pulling their weight, and I’m probably in the top 1% of people who actually give a shit — but I see the way my family and friends act. None of these people are malicious and uncaring. They’re just ignorant and caught up in the busy daily grind of their lives.

    What’s the point in slowing the freight train by 0.00000001%, when you know it’s going off the cliff no matter what?

        I make a dollar boss makes a dime, I recycle and compost boss flys on a private jet every time. (rhyming is hard)

          Again, how is that an issue with capitalism, all forms of economics have winners and losers. This isn’t about capitalism, consumerism sure, but not how our shit is made/traded.
