    Don’t worry; when something like this happens, antisocialists always have a back‐up plan.

      And depressions are cyclical responses by the capitalists to push more people into poverty so further wealth is accumulated.

      your point?

        I think they meant that they are skipping meal because their depression saps their motivation to cook/get food/eat, it happened to me a lot recently.
