You’re being exploited the same exact way we see as inhumane for animals. You’re simply performing tricks to make your bosses money while you get the “reward” of scraping by with no opportunity in life for self fulfillment. They’re tossing you fish to survive while they live like kings.

Capitalism has dehumanized us. We witness intelligent animals commit suicide in captivity and it sparks such outrage that the practice is (rightfully) under immense scrutiny. We witness other people kill themselves, while billions of others have anxiety and depression stemming directly from how we live our lives and we consider that NORMAL. I know this post is a block of text but it’s honestly really important to remind yourself from time to time how desensitized people have been forced to become to not be constantly outraged at life under capitalism.

    Definitely feel like a properly kept human would need to be in a group of around 100 or so.
