Nope. When speaker mikey j goes on left news to calm potential rioters into thinking they have a chance you already lost.
Not the government ... just billionaires
government is the symptom ... billionaires are the underlying cancer
They've all been meeting in little exclusive groups in the white house to felate Trump on a regular basis. It's fucking disgusting.
I wonder how many kids they traffic through there during these little events? I wonder if they are all on the Epstein list.
How much you wanna bet the ballroom will be where Little Miss USA is held
Two things can suck. Government and the use of force is a fundamentally anti-democratic method. It's why we can have billionaires¹.
¹who are severe problems and need to get got. Obviously.
Other way around.
Authority is what protects the billionaires. The whole system is designed to benefit them.
The only way to defeat them is to transition to a classless, stateless society.
They've bought the laws that made it much more so over the past few decades. The laws are where we take it back, and then create laws with no tolerance that prevent aggressive behaviors from having any place in society outside of maybe certain types of military & sports, but even those will need strong controls in place.
The mechanism of law fundamentally favors the powerful, the mechanism if violence to lubricate coordination and smoother roughness is fundamentally antidemocratic, and fundamentally wielded against the most marginal. Both will always produce reinforce and snowball stratification. The medium kind of is the message here.
The laws have protected them and their wealth since day one. America was founded to protect its rich landed ~~nobility~~ voters, anything since is a hack on top.
You cannot control them, history shows this time and time again, it is better to eliminate their means of power in the first place.
You're talking about completely eliminating the existing structure of the country. Good luck getting an even vaguely significant proportion of the population to go along with that. People are too afraid of what they don't know or understand.
Anything less is horrifically cruel, like Nazi level cruel.
I'd wager the bulk of the population would need to experience that for themselves before they'd believe it.
That I agree with.
Hopefully some soul searching is done now that Trump is bringing America to Americans.
The thing is, you only get one shot. It needs to happen, but it needs to happen the right way at the right time.
If you want to do a hot insurrection, sure. But you can also take baby steps, make that final leap easier. Build community, organize outside government, organize infrastructure that functions outside financial institutions¹, build capacity trust coordination to make everything the regime wants more of a pain in the ass, but. Their human resources out, blunt their swords cutting paper and wood, and get opposition more cohesive capable resourced as the state recedes and you find ways to fill those responsibilities.
There will still be violence, and there may still be a jump if you want to get rid of the state, but you can turn it fron a jump you'd associate with a rocket propelled motorcycke down to a jump you'd associate with a particularly edgy crossfit routine.
¹as conservative as cash only/monero for your tomatoes and lettuce, as radical as in kind trades labor exchange and ²rural development or full 'half my crop goes to communism'
²solar panels, soil chemistry work, crispr, granaries, water exploration, etc.
That shirt is gonna overthrow my eyesight
Late-’80s/early-’90s was a wild time. People really wore this stuff around, not just celebrities on TV!
Goddamnit Stamets, you're in Canada. What do you have against Mark Carney?
I've been underwhelmed by Carney's response to the housing crisis. Promising to build 4,000 homes next year doesn't seem proportional to the spending or scale of the problem. If they'd said "4k in 2026, and 40k in 2027" or some other significant ramp up, I think that probably would have made me feel a bit better.
Maybe stamets is in the same boat?
He's basically biden sans senility, building scaffolding for fascism and putting one liter of blood in for every two the patient loses, with no effort to stitch up the wound, crowding out the place where a real medic might stand.
Yea, it is time for the capitalist portion of the US government to end. We had a good run, but the founding fathers didn't make enough things constitutionally illegal ... still allowing political parties was the biggest mistake. Swearing allegiance to a political party should be treason and an automatic disqualification for serving office. George Washington warned that political parties would eventually destroy the US and it looks like he will be proven correct.
Go ahead and start OP
