I hate capitalism
How old are you?
Old enough to know that capitalism is a flawed and outdated system.
Are you also old enough to realize that nothing is unlikely to change in your lifetime? Maybe you should use your time and energy towards something you can actually change or influence like yourself? Too many people that are depressed get caught in the politics rabbithole which further exacerbates their situation.
Recommend learning about: stoicism and history.
I’m healthy enough to have a sorta optimistic view of the future. I get therapy and I am extremely active in politics. In 2020, I studied nothing but political history. I know that capitalism is practically on its death bed, and if we don’t find a way to replace it, we’ll end up like the Roman Empire.

Gonna be honest, that's a garbage comic. Was expecting something at least remotely funny.
