Do you really win if capitalism dictates when you should feel / cry?

[-] miname@feddit.de 20 points 11 months ago

But they don't dictate it. They win if you cry only when it doesn't affect them

[-] habanhero@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 months ago

They do. The capitalistic grind makes you think it's more worthwhile to cry while making money, rather than cry when you needed to.

Either way you can produce a strong argument they're influencing when you cry so by your logic they've already won. Your lost agency has jack shit to do with whether you cry or not so let them cry.

It's not about whether you cry or not but rather about when you cry. It's also not so much about if you win or lose in a black and white sense but how much more are you prepared to lose.

Anyways, this is a matter of perspective and probably not the right sub to discuss this lol.
