    Most people in the past worked just to be able to eat. It’s way easier to get food now than ever. This isn’t a capitalism thing, this is consumerism and being to lazy to cook home food. It’s way cheaper to eat grocery store bought food you prep and cook for yourself than it is to eat fast food. That shit is expensive as fuck.

      The ever increasingly pressure capitalism is putting on people is causing a lot of issues.

      People are overworked, overstressed just to make through the end of the month and that causes a lot of issues. It’s reductive to blame people not cooking solely on being lazy.

        No it is not

        The Netherlands works some of the shortest hours in the world, has some of the best healthcare, and also has a rise in CRC. This is not a capitalism bad argument. This is a change in our society, and potentially a “microplastics are everywhere now”. This has nothing to do with capitalism bad.
