Oh no! A potential monotonous job that lets me live a life of luxury 10,000x better than any of those animals if I wanted! Better equate it to a death trap... Not the reality of simply existing in the first place lol.

existence is fine, the problem is capitalism lol

Capitalism isn't perfect, but no other system has provided so much for so many. Fact.

Saying "fact" after a stupid sentence doesn't make it true.

Correct, it being true makes it true.

If it wasn't true you'd be falling all over yourself to point out the 'successful' communist nations.

But there aren't any. China had to resort to capitalistic practices in order to save the nation. In 2022 Cuba was the number 161 economy in the world. Hardly a superpower and they still don't have the standard of living we do.
