because capitalism needs to function like cancer. shit's built on old imperialist logics, where you must always be claiming more. red queen's race bullshit. or cancer; pick your metaphor.

it must be profitable because while productivity increases, due to imperial conquest and advancing technology, the profits of the owning classes (remember; this is the literal definition of capitalism-value being produced by owners rather than workers. yes it's insane, they are insane, this system is insane.) must also increase.

the fact the working class have no more to squeeze from just means we get closer and closer to slaves, which is maybe intentional, maybe just a cool bonus for them.

there's a cool poem that explains it. check out part 2 https://poets.org/poem/howl-parts-i-ii

love your username.

but yes, there is no wealth on this magnitude without pillaging the world others have built, tearing out the wiring, and selling it for scrap. they can only destroy. the creative urge is, as they say, also a destructive urge. more true for capitalists than most.

cheaper than nasa could

no. they just got more funding and violated a bunch of environmental rules that NASA had to follow, because funding to efficient government programs is threadbare, and funding to military or subsidies of those deemed the beneficiaries of our society.

nope, never. they might also have some small commercial contracts, but none of it works without government subsidies.

no, and they're eager to, but I think if they ever tried to not, things would go badly. that's bad for the market and drives down everyone elses profits. there would be a lot of solidarity against them by the class of people that own the police.

capitalism is the idea that value comes from ownership, rather than labor. landlording is just the purest expression of capitalism.

kill everyone in valhalla and then

isn't that kind of the whole vibe? that's just, like, every day there right?

why the hell didn't you vote for delacruz? she's electable if you vote for her. maybe you should have fallen in line and sided with the people you claim are your natural god damn allies after your candidate went obviously senile and clearly couldn't win?
