Capitalism is a problem because it changes the fundamental nature of your brain.

Neuroscientists have done brain scans and discovered that power causes brain damage.
The brain scan of a wealthy person is similar to that of a psychopath.
People with an enormous amount of money have brain damage.
Why is that?
A normal person has the ability to have empathy.
If you are too powerful or too wealthy, you don't have the capacity to have feelings for others.
Take for example a person like Elon Musk, Mark Zukerburg or Donald Trump.
They are completely unable to have feelings for others.

Explains why billionaire philanthropy exists eh?

BohoBabe · M

@InterdimensionalSideEye Tax write-offs. Billionaire philanthropy is a scam to get around paying taxes.

@BohoBabe it still helps doesn’t it?

@InterdimensionalSideEye Not really. It helps certain people in the short-term, but those same billionaires use charity as an argument against raising their taxes so we can have actual systemic policy that would end poverty. Charity is good, but not when billionaires are exploiting it to maintain the current system.

@InterdimensionalSideEye There is no such thing as billionaire philosophy. There is just capitalism and a work ethic, something the DEY FOOD STAMP folk don't have.
