Capitalism and the "distribution of suffering"
 

Boyer, Handbook of Disappointed Fate, 153: "Capitalism wasn't just economics, it was a system of organizing lives, and part of this organization was the distribution of suffering, and a subset of distributing suffering was who would sweat more, and where (hot yoga or the bus stop?). It organized who would make art and who would profit from it and who would suffer it, also who would write in a tiny green notebook in unofficial pencil about how much she was made discomfited in a fascinated way about the gilded shit."
