    There’s a damn good reason why we in the working class are gaslit and prodded into converting our romantic relationships into glorified labour arrangements (ie, marriage) as soon as possible - intimacy requires time and energy… time and energy that, under a capitalist system, must be spent labouring for the parasite class and nothing else.

    It’s also the reason why any children that results from such intimate relationships must be mass-corraled into glorified creches (ie, our so-called “education system”) at the first opportune moment - we can’t have the working class spend any undue amount of time actually doing any parenting, now can we?
