    Marx doesn’t care about your individual participation in capitalism.

    He was much more interested in systemic level critique. Your individual consumption will change nothing about the broader incentive structures that produce bad outcomes under capitalism.

      We have no hope to change large systems. Too many people depend on them and most people don’t have the time or energy to even think about questioning them. Eventually the system will collapse. We will have to build something in the rubble. Think about how we can prepare for that time and what you can do individually to contribute to that.
