    The owner-class divides the working class.

    And yet this quote places blame on some of the oppressed rather than the oppressor. Who knows what hardships the sympathizer has faced that makes them sell out. They’re not a disease, they’re a symptom.

      It’s very obvious who has faced actual hardship and who has led a very priveledged life where they’ve never had to make a truly hard choice.

      When you’re on day 3 of no food, there’s not much you won’t do for a bite.

      Keeping food in your family’s mouths is a small price to pay for indifference to people you’ve never met before.
