 Short term means it should be redesigned after its effects become apparent.
 
 Long term means that if there's sufficient demand, an alternative should be

 Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever

 may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
 ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
 mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
 collective mind co-re-assigns.

 I can 100% relate, to all of this.
 
 we are multifaceted. all people are.
 
 on social media, you follow someone for a particular facet, and if they don't
 like your other facets well then it wasn't meant to be.
 
 there's also no shame in pruning people who post things that upset you or that

  Relatedly, when people are talking about "productivity" or "contributing to society,"

  2. "Productivity" is something that can COME FROM being well cared-for, it is not a pre-requisite for "earning" care  
                                                                              
  3. YOU are part of this society that is being contributed to. You are not outside it striving to "earn" your way in. You are already IT

 Ah but then inflation wouldn't increase, and don't you know inflation is just
 a (loose) measurement of how much wealth the ruling class extracts from the
 populace each year?
 
 When the total amount of wealth increases more than inflation, it's okay. When
 it doesn't... They tighten our chains.
