Why is it that it seems everyone has to optimize everything to the maximum threshold? Life's become so competitive that simply existing and getting up every morning doesn't seem to cut it anymore. Did we reach a point of over-education and under-employment for the vast majority of humanity?

Because capitalism just lets richoids steal everything

fpbp
the USA is a very winner-take-all mentality (although I think this originates with the UK) and through culture and the internet this impacts everyone else. Of course not all Americans are like this, but American business is very much like this and it's cancerous.
Nice art OP

I don't think he is claiming to be a commie sympathizer. He's just stating the simple fact that late-stage capitalism allows the wealthy elite to separate from the commoners.

They don't like Israelis here. Prepared to be hassled by your immigration officer at the customs. But if you get thru, check out Koh Tao. Beautiful island.

>>545296713
That's not capitalism, that's just good old fashion corruption and oligarchy (America has always been a shadow oligarchy btw)
Once you get big enough you can bully the government into subsidizing your company with tax payer money.

A true guru, surely.
OP's post is exemplified in a culture like South Korea's, maxed to the gills on consumption, status-seeking, vanity, and cutthroat competition between all actors, young & old, male & female. And for what? They'll all tell you that they hate it, how exhausting, anxiety-inducing, and depraved it is, and yet few can conceive of refusing to participate. In a dog-eat-dog world, only he who willfully seeks the Path of the Dog keeps his bowl filled.

School unironically.
There's nothing else to do but shit-talk each other and compare each other's grades, you compete to memorize factoids, you're taught from an early age that factoids and test scores are the most important thing.
Basically the goal for the youth is no longer that they go outside, have fun, play, and explore, it's to educate them instead. When you focus on education their brain learns that they are in a competition with everyone.
>WHAT? You can't name all 50 state capitals?
>Damn, you go to public school?
>Kids these days can't name all the state capitals
Ect ect, the entire education culture is about this hyper-competitive (but also paradoxically inclusive) system where you spend years competing on the most minor things like how you write your name so neatly on the paper so some post-menopause foid can decide to give you kizzat (a good grade and attention)

this is just another narrative (applicable to some cities of india sure)
but a narrative nonetheless

dog-eat-dog narratives are strong in this "civilization"
true

all narratives are dangerous for health!
the creation is wholesome then

Thats not capitalism you brown fucking retard. Capitalism is where youre not forced to use one corporation, or one government supplied food source etc. You stupid fuck. Capitalism is when YOU give money for something YOU want, and if YOU dont do that their company dies. Fucking brown people im sp fucking tired of you

What the fuck is " late stage capitalism " i swear to fucking god this whole generation is a cull, you all have literally no fucking idea what youre saying. How is it possible for a capitalist to force you to pay for something? It literally LOSES THE DEFINITION OF CAPITALISM. its Jews that did this to you, youre all communist socialist fucking faggots who need to be enslaved at this point

We get it. You’re brown and you’re poor. And you unironically pay for porn.

It might have started in the UK but it certainly hasn't stayed in the UK. We're at the stage of socialism where nobody tries because everybody knows that there's no reward for trying.

>write computer dashboards that measure employee productivity with red and green lights
>it doesn't have to be actual productivity just productivity the dashboard measures
>shits out numbers to the boss
>boss: if we force everyone to use this productivity will go up
>actually that's not how you rub a business at all you just killed your productivity
>but actually it's the productivity that's measurable by the dashboard so youre doing great
>profits profits productivity productivity
>wait why is our business a joke that nobody cares about, do we even make anything anymore or do we just fulfil minigames in a computer program, oh well, better buy other companies
