People who pay for conveniences in order to delegate their labor these days often confuse their class/caste privileges for a sign of maturity. What you’re confusing for a sign of maturity (people cooperating with you because you are competent/ respected) is actually capitalism replacing your social connections with money. You’ll notice that’s also how they trashed the rest of your society, if you take two minutes and think about it.

      Here are examples:

      • meal prep and delivery

      • child care / elder care

      • laundry service

      My opinion is that these are services that people often delegate with money in order to pursue financial opportunities other people don’t have, and they often confuse their class privileges for social maturity because money has replaced social relationships in their life.

        Oh, fair enough. I don’t do any of those either. Though I don’t think it’s bad enough that it can be interpreted as being not mature.

          What do you think delegating your needs through capitalism is a sign of?
