A fun thing to do when people accuse you of “thinking people should just have stuff HANDED TO THEM! ! !” Is to just cold be like yes. I absolutely do believe that. I think every single person should have their needs met unconditionally without ever having to prove that they “deserve” it based on arbitrary criteria of usefulness. You got me. Busted.
I also believe this, but this does not mean I do not acknowledge that meeting people’s needs requires a certain amount of work (for now, just till we invent robots to do it for us)
