    But they are happy to eat at Burger King. The food is good enough for them, but the people making the food aren’t.

            Learn to build, DIY everything, make everything, reject capitalism hole-cloth. Build things for your friends in exchange for goods and services. Exchange labor. Shop at farm stands, and spend on only essentials and the tools for creation. Play an instrument. Go for walks.

            Learning to reject capitalism starts small.

            I think a lot of people are very much pissed about their situations, but also mislead and/or ignorant about what the problems actually are, how solutions can be enacted, and both who can lead and who to blame.

            There’s also burnout. I think most people are just trying to make sure they can get to work, see their family, raise their kids, etc. The system works to grind us down so we don’t put up a fight, and the system is working well.

      The trick, you see, is to not think about it, and avoid anything that makes you think about it. For most people that achieves all personal objectives.
