Trading stocks makes me feel dirty (hexbear.net)

I hate the whole publicly traded model of companies. I hate capitalism. But have to engage in trading stocks (I mostly do Mutual Funds and a small quantity of direct stocks) so that my money doesn't lose value by sitting in a bank or cash.

Same thing with credit cards, don't like taking loans and getting marked on a centralised list for that but it's a safer option than using your own money.

Fortunately I don't do crypto so that's a plus.

Damn those are some bleak options, yeah. Almost like the US is a capitalist hellscape or something.

"Join us or perish" is what they seem to be signaling, yeah.

Apparently you see that as only having two choices and are going with "join them," which is fine I'm not your morality coach. I'm certainly not asking you to sit down and die.

You can rationalize it all you want. That you have no choice but to participate. I hear it all the time from people telling me to vote for Biden.
