    Thompson’s children, like every other human, aren’t just neutral moral agents. Like their father, their position depends on our monstrous system. Sure they could overcome this and adopt good politics, but it will be harder for them than people who earn money honestly.

    Remember that the capitalists are always class-conscious and usually show class-solidarity.
