This totally real person is also paying $40 for their cell bill and $30 for a personal cleaner per month lol. This totally real person is also only spending $250 dining out per month but also $13 per day on groceries for one person for some reason. Also also this person (who is totally real I swear) is paying $20 per month for internet but for some reason that isn’t grouped in with utilities
true yeah, I think of it as more of a side-effect of the capitalist mode of production that we currently are living with, and a sign that a different attitude toward housing and neighborhood/community development is absolutely necessary going forward. Along the same lines as what you said, but different framing
I remember some line in the Foucault-Chomsky debate along the lines of "we're tunneling into the same mountain, but maybe from different parts of the mountain." Whatever else anyone thinks of those two, that's a good way we should approach conversations with other leftists.
