      capitalism is the idea that value comes from ownership, rather than labor. landlording is just the purest expression of capitalism.

          uh huh. I think the value of stuff should go to the people who made it, who can, individually or as (a) group(s) maintain their own fucking tools. or towards a broader project of building a society. I don’t think concentrating wealth or some edgelord bullshit about greed being good are sustainable healthy or sane ways to structure distribution of resources in a society.

      The core problem is consumerism. The idea that if you have more, then you should get more and spend more while complaining you don’t have enough.
