What the Quote Means — and Why It Matters
They told you to “Hustle,” but they forgot to mention the System “Hustles” Back … stronger and better.
Capitalism will capitalise on your time, labour, attention, and ignorance — unless you know how to flip the game.
Whether it’s through student loans, medical bills, data harvesting, or the myth of meritocracy, the system is designed to extract, not empower.
