I'm typing this on a device that I carry around with me all day, who's entire purpose is to collect as much data as possible and deliver it back to the company I bought it from. All in order to influence me to buy more of their stuff. In a way, yeah capitalism is always in the room with me. It kinda sucks.

Are... are you saying capitalism doesn't exist?

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee -1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No.

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

and yet that is what that idiom implies - that you are seeing things that don't exist

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

No. I don't thinks so...
