#TIL I learned via refashionedhippie that there exists in this world a company called "Azature," which makes a nail polish that sells for $250,000.00 per bottle. It's made from 267 carats of black diamonds.

A quarter of a million dollars.
For a mediocre effect I could achieve for less than $20 at the corner drugstore.

And that right there encapsulates the reasons why billionaires should not exist and #capitalism is bad for humans.

From 2023: Alone and Exploited, #Migrant #Children Work Brutal Jobs Across the U.S.

Arriving in record numbers, they’re ending up in dangerous jobs that violate #ChildLabor laws — including in factories that make products for well-known brands like #Cheetos and #FruitOfTheLoom.

Many years ago, after studying many religions, Carl Jung, and philosophy, I came up with the definition of "good" and "evil".

"Good" is what connects us to God / #Nature / Each Other.

"Evil" is that which separates us from God / Nature / Each Other.

It's that simple folks! Seriously!!!

And this is not even going into how it's the cause of the climate crisis as well.

This is not sustainable.

I'm only one chapter in to Chokepoint Capitalism and I'm already depressed and furious.

I mean, it's not what I didn't already know on some level, but seeing it spelled out...

🤬 🤬 🤬

Ditto! I mean, I was already very open and alternative, but being part of this community has helped me be even MORE so.

When they arrest me for helping to destroy the #capitalist power structure, I'll blame it all on #mastodon...

This is an exact quote from a letter we received today, including the almost exactly repeated middle paragraphs. Nothing within the passage has been omitted.

There really is no there there.
