 Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
 you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
 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.

 Economies are capitalist things.
 
 I personally think if you have stuff right here, and it needs to get over
 there so that so-and-so can use it to make this-or-that which will then be
 taken to other places, then the answer is clear. The stuff has to move from
 over here, to over there. The rest is logistics, not economics.

 capitalists want you to use their products. they prey on your humanity to get
 you to do so. They don't care if you want their products, they just demand
 that you use them.

 mutual aid is only something separate from your human responsibilities because
 capitalism insists that your loyalty is to the company, not to your neighbors,
 your friends on the opposite sides of the earth, this planet we owe all to,
 and all of posterity.
 
 @user-754
 
 mutual aid is good, actually, because we don't talk to each other and plan a
 way to fix it permanently.

 @user-138 if you don't want feedback then why don't you just... not open the
 replies? leave them unread? if you feel the need to justify your actions (such
 as not reading replies to your controversial posts) then somewhere deep down
 you feel like those actions are unjustified, and needing an explanation. which
 makes your point feel less valid to others, since even you don't believe in it
 enough to guarantee it to be the truest expression of your soul.

 old school programmers use short variable names because the computer monitors
 they would code on had a lower resolution, meaning fewer characters per line.
