@aral@mastodon.ar.al My dear friend, why are you ignoring me? I'm sorry to bother you; I didn't know you were upset with me, but my pregnant wife is in the hospital and needs expensive treatment. Please be the reason. 😭😭😭😭💔💔💔

@aral@mastodon.ar.al My friend I message you every day and haven't heard anything back. Please, my pregnant wife is dying. A quote from you is our only hope. I swear, my wife and her baby are dying. Save me, brother. Enough ignoring me. ❤️🙏

@aral@mastodon.ar.al Hello my dear friend, I hope you understand my situation. My wife's condition is worsening and I haven't received any help. Please, the hospital fees are increasing and I haven't done anything. $67 is my only hope, my friend. I hope you understand and don't say no, please. ❤️🫂

@aral@mastodon.ar.al It wasn't always this bad. It was bad, yes, but not THIS BAD. We let the oligarchs take over when we de-regulated and effectively un-taxed the rich and large corporate entities in exchange for the promise of jobs. The focus was never jobs. That's not capitalism's goal. Money is. I keep saying that we can fix most of the issues we're having as a society through legislation, but instead we worship at the feet of the oligarch, the same thing we have done over and over again.

@aral@mastodon.ar.al We have to because we have to exist in a capitalist society. Which is the whole trick. I believe my employers currently are at least trying to do something positive (as well as earning money), but publishing academic works, helping to educate. But yes, they are capitalist. I have to earn to live. I have to feed the tumor to exist, and so help the tumor grow. I want to not have to, but I have no real means of doing otherwise. I think it is for people to do what they can to support the healthy tissue. But there is precious little of that left.
