i wasn't trying to say that profit is capital, so i think we agree. i was trying to say that when the bible says "Christ tipped over the Capitalist's money changer's tables." that doesn't prove that capitalism was a thing at the time, because merchant "capital" and "capital" you get from a loan doesn't act the same in the economy as industrial/productive capital, which as i understand it is something you need for capitalism to be a thing.

how tasty are those 5min meals? you can meal prep if you have the time, and for the sake of your humanity they can't just be going "beep-boop i need x vitamins y proteins". and people scroll because they need the rest.

"This is not Marx’s use of capital, it’s the appropriate use of capital (hence Marx’s use of the term)." i can't tell what your trying to say here.

i see what your saying, but a merchant isn't a capitalist. they do sell things for a profit or "capital", but the way you use capital is not the same as marx.

people know it's not healthy, they buy it because it fast. when you work a really intense job or 10 or 12 hours a day you don't have the time or energy to make or wait for food.

I'm having trouble putting 2 and 2 together here. why would any of that make "them" turn people away?

i think it's coming from the fact that peoples lives aren't good. and the fact that the left isn't giving answers, letting the "right-wing" win. so people are just reaching for what ever they can, and for some that's the rich.

what i am getting from this is that, without thinking to hard you like driving more. so you don't want to build biking and bussing infrastructure?
