Completely fucking wrong. People make the systems, and incentivize and even work for said systems that oppress, that doesnt make you free of responsibility in the least, quite the opposite. Americans are so afraid of personal responsibility its beyond insane.

You worship work culture so much you think its okay no matter what you do as long as you work, absolutely pathetic and disgusting

Oh yeah, lifestyle changes will totally change the system, just look how far green capitalism got us /s. As far as I can tell, personal responsibility and guilt is a tool used very successfully by the oppressive classes. It's not progressive to point the finger at people who don't have the luxury of hand picking an "ethical profession"-something I'd love to see an example of? Find better targets to be angry at bud.
