It occurred to me the other day how much the natural inclination of humans to play has been perverted as well as harnessed for ill by capitalism.

Instead of a healthy mixture of work and learning and play, we've got sedentary inaccessible school, sedentary inaccessible work, and inaccessible playspaces (and playtime relegated to very little time per day and often made work-like e.g. Crossfit).

Ppl instead supposed to identify with billionaire-owned sports teams. Gamification of so much else.
