    I’m not defending the anti-solution, I’m saying that the anti-solution is the only way to meet the material needs of these people right now. Capitalism is both the system that we live under and a system that should be dismantled, and these two things are not contradictary. You’re literally defending the idea of having a service rendered to you and then denying the human being that served you the means to feed themselves. Because why? Hopefully if you and others do it enough it will turn the tide and maybe there will be some massive uprising of service workers and then people will get paid a living wage? Exactly what are they supposed to do until then?

        Which brings me back to the point that the good side is the side of the workers. That means meeting their material conditions now, who also ensuring that we fight for better material conditions for the future.
