Was this form of protest uncouth?

1 Answer

Answer :

Capitalists don’t give a fuck about you, your kids, and whether you live or die of starvation. In fact, the more successful capitalists will get a boner from the schadenfreude of knowing they made your children unhappy. They’re sociopaths. The only “protest” which is going to have any effect on them is one which hurts them financially or physically.
