i can't find the original post again but it was posted very recent so i'm sure there's many more comments now. the OP wrote a couple long paragraphs expressing heartfelt shock and initial disbelief with our conditions, saying they believed we were spoiled and pampered bourgeois, and are now losing sleep over stories they heard
there was also a comment like "i need to reread marx with this new information in mind"
Normally these kinds of comments make me feel validated, whenever an objective group collectively comes to realize something I've been trying to convey to others.
But instead it's just making me sad. I'm so sick of the harshness and cruelty of this system in which we are stuck. And I mourn for how much more healthy and happy we could all be, if things were organized to benefit humanity as a whole, instead of only benefitting wealthy monsters.
