Comment on What's the endgame when the rich have all the money?
queermunist@lemmy.ml 2 days agoOh I’m not saying they’re like, a different species of human or anything. This is just what being rich does to people. It’s like you said, they never experience that period where they have to settle for less. They always get more, and so they always want more. It’s the way their brains have been trained to expect rewards. Someone like me, who is happy using older stuff and waiting for the prices to come down, has been trained to live this way. Someone like them, who always wants the best and most expensive, was also trained to live that way. They become hungry ghosts because of their lifestyles.

Then we agree. It just sounded like you somehow attributed more inherent evilness to them than everyone else.

We are products of our material conditions, yeah, there’s no inherent evilness - it’s a learned behavior.
