"It is not true that men are unwilling to change. It is true that many men are afraid to change. It is true that masses of men have not even begun to look at the ways that patriarchy keeps them from knowing themselves, from being in touch with their feelings, from loving. To know love, men must be able to let go the will to dominate." - bell hooks, The Will to Change
i figured they'd double down but am still blown away by how transparently unwell they'd come off in doing so.
don't pity them. but they are clearly on a sharp downward spiral. if i were on a commercial airline flight and my pilot said this over the intercom i'd be getting my parachute on. (this time, the plane is the global economy.)
@jplebreton There is no world where I could bring myself to pity these people.
@jplebreton So basically they’re admitting that the only way to be great under capitalism is to be a sociopath with no empathy or emotional self-awareness, got it
@jplebreton when every business decision you've ever pulled out of your ass has resulted in "still becoming richer than god anyways", thinking starts to look like a mental disorder of the lower classes.
