It's amazing the number of tankies and overall left-nuts I've found on here. Figures considering the kind of people that frequent FOSS spaces
Lol. So right. These nerds hate everyone who makes everything and doesn't give them free stuff.
Except that many of us, including myself, live reasonably comfortable lives under capitalism? It's an extremely selfish position to be satisfied with a system that has done good things for you personally, but has ravaged the lives of countless others.
It's not about free stuff. It has never been about free stuff. It's about the fact that a society is bad if it allows a minority population to get richer, without first ensuring that everyone's basic human needs are satisfied.
No one is stopping you from supporting whoever you want. There is nothing moral about spending other people's money to do charitable things. Millions have died under tyrannical bureaucracies that were built on the sentimate you've expressed here. Society has no business holding people down or propping others up. Live your life. Mind your business.
The very system you defend is everything but a neutral experience where everyone can live their lives. You don't think capitalism actively holds people down? Look around.
