Why are you shadowboxing comments?Nobody said to reject the system or even to try and fix it. Nobody said to go live at a bus stop. I don't know why you think that's what we're saying or if you're hot off another convo and getting things mixed up but it's just not at all what we're saying.

Again, you can accept that capitalism is the system we have without saying it's the best system ever and you love it. You can get kidnapped without developing stockholm syndrome.

I replied further down but I'll do it here. I'm not saying go live in the woods to escape or anything like that.

You can accept that you are just a cog in the capitalist machine without simping for the very machine that's crushing you.

I'm not sure how people are getting something else from what I wrote. I thought I was pretty clear. You can accept that you've been kidnapped without developing stockholm syndrome.

The downvotes are from a misunderstanding. I didn't say to reject capitalism or go live in the woods to escape it or anything like that.

I'm saying you can accept that you are nothing but a cog in the capitalist machine without simping for the very machine that's crushing you.

People seem to be reading what they want to read in these comments.

You can accept the material conditions of your life without simping for the people who are actively making it worse you know

They don't "follow the bible" so much as they "use the Bible to justify their shitty worldview"

That's pretty cool, thanks for sharing. I always found psych experiments super interesting but didn't think I could make a career out of it.

I'm very interested in what a perception researcher does day to day. But yeah, research showed cigarettes were harmful way before anything was done. Research is showing climate change is real, and recycling isn't effective, and vaccines are safe. I fear we're headed to a second dark age.

Unless it's a meme reference (lol same) comments are generally more thought out and well constructed, as you can see from the replies here.
