Antiwork

Capitalism has made me feel worthless as a person.

What good am I as a person if I can't compete in today's hypercompetitive world? If I don't have that killer instinct, that ambition. If I'm simply just not good at anything? To the thinking of many I don't really deserve to live. Those are the questions I've been asking myself the last couple years, and I've suffered through massive confidence issues and mental crises as a result. Even burger flipping seems beyond me at this point. I haven't been employed for years. Whatever few job interviews I've had never go well. I assume they just take one look at me and nope out of there. If there are any good qualities to me at all, they are not “marketable”. What hope is there for me, when even the strong, smart, fast, good looking and socially charming are struggling in our capitalistic society today?
