The claim to not having mysticism is part of the mysticism. The current economic system funnels economic value from the poor to the ultra rich. You're telling me that having two different groups of people with the same physiological needs being given vastly different quantities of resources is some kind of natural state? That "mysticism" isn't required there?

If you're waxing on about how great the status quo is, you're most likely the entitled one
