this feels like the most clearly I’ve been able to put the sentiment into words. I’m not exactly a fan of the wage slavery system we live in in general, but when continuing operations in the face of, or directly contributing to the decline of the environment, more than ever I feel like i/we shouldn’t just be carrying on as normal, contributing to businesses ordinary operations as though nothing is wrong.
I know that my labour alone can’t make or break the status quo, but I’m finding it harder and harder to justify being part of the problem when no attempts at a solution really seem to exist.
Unfortunately I see no way out. My wife has medical issues and I have to keep us in insurance, food, and shelter. Without her im not sure what I would do as I can be pretty fatalistic on my own but I can’t let her suffer any more than she does.
I feel the same way. It feels absurd to just trudge to the office every day while I wonder if the world will be a safe place for my son by the time he’s my age.
