By definition, if you want power in capitalism, you need to possess capital.

As someone who has worked multiple jobs for 4-5 years at once well attending college and not having kids at time. I can confidently say single parents with multiple jobs must be superhuman and demand deep respect.

But also fuck that and no one should have to work multiple jobs. When I had to do it, I had maybe 3 hours a day I was not sleeping to myself and I had to use that time for schoolwork, cooking dinner, washing myself. If I didn't keep telling myself "this will only be temporary until I graduate" I'd probably off myself, because it was fucking horrible. I felt and looked like the walking dead, lost all my friends because I was "unavailable" and the tiny joy I got was beating off strictly for the endorphins to make it another day.

Capitalist: Guess she should have: not gotten pregnant, taken out loans to get a degree so she can be a CEO, lived like a hermit to afford to school, etc.

[-] Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago

The same people saying she shouldn't have gotten pregnant also whine about population decline.

The same ones refusing to help out parents succeed, or even allow already-born children to feed/clothe/educate/immunize. I wouldn't put it past them to want to see babies dying so they can gloat about only the strongest needing to survive or some inhumane shit like that. It's always the same assholes.

Gotta not have a moral failing, like a husband that drops dead. This is how we know billionaires are highly moral; they rich. /s

Edit: To make clear I am being sarcastic.

"Well I know you're not rich. Dang, you must be one lazy sonovagun."

For all the goobers who aren't rich themselves but still say stuff like this

SCAM ALERT!!!

Someone will hire you to “create wealth through hard work” but then take most of that wealth for themselves. This has happened to me and some of my friends too.

Watch out!

"In capitalism you just gotta work hard to get rich"

Hm. Well, here's my rebuttal:

We ain't found shit!
