@rokejulianlockhart because it's capitalist brainrot propaganda. A Human life is worth more than it's "usefulness" to other people.

Edit: the person who replied below me is correct. It's worse than just capitalism it's eugenicist.

@MnemosyneSinger @rokejulianlockhart A human life is worth at least as much as it costs to maintain it.

The issue is whether or not that's seen as expensive.

@graydon @MnemosyneSinger @rokejulianlockhart the worth of human life is reckoned in different terms than "cost to maintain". Thst is rotten thinking, somehow equating the two.

@walruslifestyle @MnemosyneSinger @rokejulianlockhart People need other people. (All people need other people. We're each of us pretty helpless on our own.) The food you need to live and the shelter you need to live are dependent on the agreement of other people that you should have them.

Society, any society, the idea of having a society, requires by the philosophical necessities some social construction of who should have those things. It need not be "do they have money?" but it must exist.
