Competition is essential in almost all (if not just all) human interaction, as its what pushes us to better ourselves and our species. healthy competition has rules in place that all parties know, and if someone is hurt or confused the competition is stopped to assess and adjust if needed, like sports n shit. We forgot to add that to the economy, whoops
Actually capitalist competition hinder progress, by not allowing humanity to have a goal other than profit
So you just didn't read my comment or what
I think the commenter is focusing on the idea of 'competition for what?'. 'Better ourselves' how, and for what purpose? I struggle with this myself, specifically in terms of motivating myself at work. i.e. What is the goal of all this (our working society, at large, not just my role as a cog).
But they’re better at lefting than you and they really need you to know it!
No it's not, people naturally wants to do better each day by themselves, for people they love and care.
