    the philosophy isn't what turns you into an anti-capitalist - that's as you said, experiencing the direct harms and coming to understand their causes. but the philosophy is useful in understanding why these harms occur, how to combat them in the present moment, and how to push back against apologists who continue uncritically making these points. it's just people working out theory.
