There are people who literally have like become capitalism. They don’t see human interaction as a thing beyond some sort of gain. And this is basically someone realizing that maybe just having supportive friends is a good thing, but can’t frame that outside of the realm of pure capitalism and how every interaction must be a transaction.
Oh shit, that’s right – you just reminded me of a guy like this. Every “friendship” seemed to be transactional, and he didn’t seem to understand friends who just wanted someone else to succeed with nothing in return.
Yeah unfortunately it’s more and more common with people who only interact with social media and are force fed like “alpha male” or “hustle and grind” style bullshit by the algorithm and it’s the only thing they believe.
