    The Capitalist project is to continue paying roughly subsitence wages + treats, while extracting greater and greater profits from the same labor.

        Capitalists pretending that they created the machines and not the workers themselves is so funny when you see through it, haha

          If I have to begrudgingly acknowledge anything, it’s that they own the machines and in our system that means they “deserve” the profit of their output.

          Doesn’t mean I like it though lol

          It’s why the workers need to own the means of production. Ownership is everything :(
