# arm neck and back rsi have returned sitting here typing these words is painful enough i don't have a nice ergonomic chair to sit in and have been slumping on this sofa for three unhealthy years thing is this automatically generates a reactionary conservative / capitalist response i immediately start to state that "if only i had enough money than i could afford on of those slick arts overrated herman miller aeron office chairs" when in fact capitalism is the more actual root cause of my rsi - and my lack of decent chair and the high cost of the chair itself if i wasn't forced to sit here for countless hours like a schmuck typing bs and had an actual life then things would be a lot easier and my arm wouldn't constantly be on slow burning fire that is if daily grim meathook capitalist reality (simulation) were structured entirely differently and we lived in an actual society where people helped each other instead of being entirely out for themselves then i could afford (find) a friendly chiropractor to pop my shoulder back away from constant pain and toward health note that's not optimal health - because the body is only ever seen as just another system to be optimized and exploited in the algorithmic sense for maximum roi capitalism forces people to be capitalistic in ir social misrelations towards others - every encounter becomes a greasy money grubbing opportunity of capitalistic exchange ie so what do i get out of it this is of course utterly insane cruel and of course impossibly stupid beyond words look i'm not afraid to say capitalism why don't you try it too say it out loud three times dear fellow researcher: "capitalism capitalism capitalism" while noting its innate dull error i'm not only financially poor but also culturally because the dominant culture forced down my neck belongs to sociopathic rich owners of whiteness(tm) i've no choice but to find my own collective tribe of equally alienated bored frustrated and hungry artists and thinkers and help create a better reality for all // republic of bob
