It's crazy what we accept as fact of life just because it was the environment of our socialization. Once the veil is pulled from your eyes, the absurdity & inhumanity of our system becomes painfully clear, it's almost like you're banished from 'normalcy'.
It's a testament to the malleability of humans. The capitalist mind prison is normal, and it is a self-reinforcing system of biopsychosocial feedback that perpetuates and advances it. However, the contradictions inherent to the whole apparatus, as we know, will lead to its inevitable downfall. Let's do our best to direct it with the hope of sparing as much suffering of the masses as we can.
