There are people who literally have like become capitalism. They don’t see human interaction as a thing beyond some sort of gain. And this is basically someone realizing that maybe just having supportive friends is a good thing, but can’t frame that outside of the realm of pure capitalism and how every interaction must be a transaction.
Oh shit, that’s right – you just reminded me of a guy like this. Every “friendship” seemed to be transactional, and he didn’t seem to understand friends who just wanted someone else to succeed with nothing in return.
