    It can be exhausting for the one giving aid, though. I have been supporting a friend by drawing down some savings and foregoing some luxuries. I judge keeping food on his table more valuable than those luxuries. But I don't want to keep it up forever.

    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. It’s not human nature per se that is the problem, but our incredible ability to adapt. Humans can happily adapt to live a life that is nowhere within their human nature, and it’s a real problem.

    This. Don’t let billionaires gaslight you into thinking that capitalism is some kind of holy word. THEIR idea of “capitalism” is the 19th-century, robber-baron kind that benefits no one but themselves.

    it’s reformist though. How isn’t anything but depressing sharing of whatever the bourgeoisie kicks from the table. Coops are marginally better but at the end of the day you’re playing a game whose rules you don’t control.
