They would end up both being a problem around 10bil population. But that’s based on our current level of technology, we could probably have at least a few bil more from the soon to come advancements in indoor vertical farming.

But yeah we should still acknowledge there’s a cap to what the resources on earth could support.

Oh well I live in the US where the less fortunate are put in prison and forced to be slaves.

When I am allowed to choose to spend my time working twoards the actual benefit of society for a fair wage call me.

Until then I’m not doing any of this voluntarily, it’s against my will. Like a slave

It’s a constant fight for survival, we’ve made the horrible mistake of modeling our systems off of the cruel fuedal hierarchies of the past and the cruel uncaring themes of nature. These are things a fair civil society is supposed to oppose and ours is failing.

Sorry if I can’t delude myself into being a happy slave for some boomer on the internet lol

The difference is in your example the majority of your labor benefits you.

Currently most working people pay off the cost that their existence incurs before age 40. But most people won’t get to retire.

Every year the ratio of work/life keeps getting shifter further away from life. And pretending like Capitalism does us any favors is just ignoring the more practical solutions at this point.

Tankies want to put minorities in camps as a distraction from real policy while they give money to rich people.

At least that’s what all the politicians they support want.

Im sure all their supporters aren’t that malicious, but that’s who they vote for.

When the “market rate” for the vast majority of jobs pays lower than what people need to live as more than slaves then effectively they are enslaved on a systemic level.

Living conditions that enable people to have actual freedom. Like having agency in their society, having affordable human needs, and having financial freedom be obtainable in time for old age.

I understand that, I’ve tried CBT and it’s impossible for it to help me because it fundamentally depends on accepting you are helpless and doesn’t properly get people in the mindset required to change their lives and society for the better.

If I actually want to give a shit about myself then that’s not something I can DELUDE myself into accepting.

The delusion I’d rather hold onto is that my life will get better, becauase in that delusion there’s at least a happy ending. I have a hard time believing that though.
