    Not wanting to hear constant complaints about something does not equate to defending or endorsing that thing.

    For example, you likely wouldn’t want to have a roommate constantly complain about their diarrhea after they eat dairy. You asking them to not constantly update you about their shit doesn’t mean you are defending diarrhea. Most people don’t want to be subjected to constant complaints about something they don’t have the authority/ability to change.

      The alternative is normalization of capitalism and the status quo, which is already very much the case in most of society. People are constantly dying and suffering because of capitalism, the bare minimum is constant critique.
