Met a proud capitalist…scary

I mentioned about my pet having an expensive illness to treat (I’m poor) and then I mentioned how I’m very sad because people die of this illness if they simply DON’T have money… and this person, for seemingly no reason (since they could have kept this information to themselves) said “I’m a (title) and I think it’s good that people make money off of pharmaceuticals (because they worked hard to research and make the medication)”

The reason this scared me is because we work in a hospital lmao

(I imagine all capitalists are natalist, this is irrelevant to the rest of my post but just wanted to add lol)

Are any of you (antinatalists, that is) (proud) capitalists? Let me know if you’re a regular one or a proud one too lmao

I asked what they think about people who can’t afford the medication and just die? They said they should get insurance. (As if everyone can afford health insurance. AS IF HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANIES AREN’T LITERALLY EVIL AS WELL TRYING TO DENY PEOPLE THE HEALTH CARE THEY LITERALLY PAY FOR LOL HELLO DID WE ALREADY FORGET WHY LUIGI DID WHAT HE DID 💀)

I can’t imagine being forced to be born without consent, with this illness, and being forced to work just to literally not suffer horribly and die of it… it’s mind blowing to me. And then there’s people who are like, “this is good and correct to do to innocent people 👍😊 “ Huh?!

People making medication for profit and not out of the goodness of their heart to lessen the suffering we experience… ugh (I understand we are all born in capitalist society and there must be money involved for research/products/ect. Don’t come at me 😭 just understand my point lol)
