Does anyone else have trouble valuing yourself sometimes? I assume it’s not uncommon under capitalism, but I still want to put it out there. Like I’ve been to therapy plenty, I know all the platitudes, and I do believe in valuing human life very strongly. But it doesn’t change the fact that capitalism doesn’t value me and many others intrinsically and I think it’s hard to shake that sometimes. Like there’s what I believe and then there’s what society practices, and society is a powerful instrument of impact; at least, that’s sort of how I make sense of the contrast between belief and internalized feelings about it.
